in this work, we report on the synthesis of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles at room temperature using microemulsion template phase consisting of cyclohexane, water, ctab as cationic surfactant and butanol as a cosurfactant. surface modification have been carried out by using poly(ethyleneglycol) (peg). the structure,morphology, and magnetic properties of the products were characteriz...

zinc oxide nano-particles with the average diameter of about 25 nm were modified with different mole ratios of trimetoxyvinyl silane (tmvs) and oleic acid, as coupling agents, in order to modify their surface properties and render them more hydrophobic. then, dispersibility of the surface modified nano-particles was examined in some monomers with different levels of hydrophobicity, including me...

the scanning probe microscopes (spms) based lithographic techniques have been demonstrated as an extremely capable patterning tool. manipulating surfaces, creating atomic assembly, fabricating chemical patterns, imaging topography and characterizing various mechanical properties of materials in nanometer regime are enabled by this technique. in this paper, a qualified overview of diverse lithog...

in this work, a simple and effective way to modify the support surface is developed and a nanostructure ceramic support to facilitate deposition of a defect-free overlying micro and meso (nano) porous membrane is obtained. to achieve high performance nanocomposite membranes, average pore size of outer surface of support was reduced by dip-coating in submicron and nano α-alumina slurries. in thi...

This study reports a novel partial hydrophobic/hydrophilic modification using the optical near-field (ONF) induced photocatalytic reaction. Herein the achievement of sub-diffraction limit resolution by photo-induced method opens a new platform towards extended-nano (100nm~1000nm) fluidic devices, in which the partial surface modification is indispensible to exploit functional applications, yet ...

Organic modification of nano-SiO2 particles was performed with supercritical CO2 as solvent and a titanate coupling reagent NDZ-201 as the modification reagent. The surface of the nano-SiO2 particles was changed after modification by the titanate coupling reagent from hydrophilic to hydrophobic. IR and thermo-gravimetric analyses indicate that the interaction between the titanate coupling reage...

Plastics occupy wide place in the applications of automotive, electronics and house goods. Especially reinforced plastics become popular because of their high strength besides their advantages of low weight and easy manufacturability. In this study, mechanical and morphological properties of polypropylene (PP) and high density polyethylene (HDPE) matrix composites reinforced with surface modifi...
