Wide application of hybrid silica aerogels is limited by the costly preparation process and
poor mechanical properties due to the inadequate initial connectivity at the interparticle …

Hemp fibers (HF) were treated with γ-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane, γ-
Glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, γ-Methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MPS) and …

Monolithic hierarchical fractal assemblies of silica nanoparticles are referred to as aerogels,
and despite an impressive collection of attractive macroscopic properties, fragility has been …

Silane coupling agent (SCA) modification was a common method to improve the interfacial
compatibility between fillers and matrix. In this paper, the competition of silane hydrolysis …

The study was focused on the optimisation of the copolymerisation process of acrylate-
based hybrid sol-gel coating to obtain long-lasting corrosion protection of AA2024-T3. The …

Rare-earth upconversion nanophosphors (UCNPs) have become one of the most promising
luminescent materials for bio-applications, but their use still meets some limitations by …

The main objective of this work was to determinate the influence of the molar ratio of two
compounds on the structure of the molecular net synthesized by sol-gel technology for the …

In this study, a new colorimetric sensor based on dithizone-anchored poly (vinyl pyridine–N,
N-methylenebisacrylamide-acrylic acid)(poly (2-VP-MBAm-AA)) nanocomposite with a …

The durability and long-term success of metallic implants are enhanced through the
molecular scale design of biocompatible and corrosion resistant surface coatings. To pursue …
