Boehmite is an aluminum oxyhydroxide [AlO (OH)] which is preferentially used as precursor
for the production of (transition) aluminum oxides. Boehmite alumina (BA) nanoparticles are …

In the present paper we describe the surface modification of alumina nanoparticles using
epoxy-containing alkoxysilanes (silane coupling agents, SCA). The materials were …

A new betadiketonate ligand displaying a trimethoxysilyl group as grafting function and a
diketone moiety as complexing site (TTA-Si= 4, 4, 4-trifluoro-2-(3-trimethoxysilyl) propyl)-1-3 …

Sequential infiltration synthesis (SIS) is emerging as an important method for generating
novel hybrid inorganic–polymer materials and is predicted to have numerous applications in …

Cystic hydatid disease (CHD) is a zoonotic disease caused by the larval stage of
Echinococcus granulosus (E. granulosus). This study aimed to synthesize silver …

Polyester fabrics have been treated with hybrid organic-inorganic sols containing aluminium
hydroxide, namely a synthetic boehmite. The treated fabrics have been thoroughly …

Nd 3+: YAG crystals have been used to develop photonic devices since the 1960s. Its
unique properties, which stem from the combination of the YAG structure with lanthanide …

Self-supported organic-inorganic hybrid transparent films have been prepared from bacterial
cellulose and boehmite. SEM results indicate that the BC membranes are covered by …

Organic–inorganic composite membranes were prepared from membranes of the bio-
polymer bacterial cellulose (BC) and organic–inorganic sol composed of nanoparticulate …

This work aims to produce luminescent sensors based on lanthanide ions and silk fibroin
composite films. Associating the physicochemical properties of fibroin with the spectroscopic …
