in order to determine the effect of potassium silicate solution with elements of macro and micro elements on agronomic traits of rice, tarom, a field experiment in paddy fields galogah city - village marbles of the crop year 2014 was conducted. the results showed that the highest plant height (013/180 cm) to 2 liters per hectare and no interaction effects of potassium silicate elements. the res...

In order to evaluate the effect of potassium silicate spray on the control of coffee leaf rust and coffee yield, an experiment was conducted during the 2005/2006 and 2006/2007 growing seasons on Coffea arabica cv. Catuaí Vermelho IAC 144, in a location situated at an elevation of 850 m in Coimbra, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The treatments consisted of: 1 potassium silicate; 2 potassium silicate + co...

this study was conducted to investigate the effects of planting date, foliar application of benomyl fungicide and potassium silicate in improving the quality of soybean (cv. williams) seed in gorgan during 2011 and 2012. in the first year (2011), the experimental treatments were including planting dates (april 20, may 13, june 3, june 29 and july 22) and foliar application of benomyl fungicide ...

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of different silicon supplements and postharvest treatments on growth and yield of gerbera in a greenhouse experiment. Silicon supplements were including potassium silicate at three concentrations (0, 140 and 200 mg L−1), sodium silicate at three concentrations (0, 50 and 100 mg L−1) and rice hull ash (RHA) at three concentrations (0, 50 and 1...

Electroosmotic pumps employing silica frits synthesized from potassium silicate as a stationary phase show strong electroosmotic flow velocity and resistance to pressure-driven flow. We characterize these pumps and measure an electroosmotic mobility of 2.5 × 10(-8) m(2)/V s and hydrodynamic resistance per unit length of 70 × 10(17) Pa s/m(4) with a standard deviation of less than 2% even when v...
