Biodegradable transparent wood was fabricated by introducing epoxy resin E51 modified with the silane coupling agent (KH550) into bleached poplar veneer. The light transmittance of modulated KH550 content. able to change compatibility and substrate, thereby affecting performance wood. In this study, effect on properties its mechanism were investigated. transmittance, tensile strength, elongatio...

Abstract Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is a promising lubricant additive for decreasing wear and friction. However, the poor dispersion stability bulky size of h-BN restricted its lubrication application. In this paper, bulk was exfoliated into nanosheets (h-BNNSs), then self-made h-BNNSs were chemically modified with silane coupling agent via facile scalable reaction method. The morphology st...

statement of problem: ceramics as in ceramo-metallic and all ceramic tooth restorations have grown popular owing to their high tissue compatibility and esthetic advantages. such restorations have the capability to deliver valuable services over a long period of time; however, failures under intraoral conditions are not unanticipated. purpose: the purpose of this in-vitro study was to investigat...

A non-isocyanate-based polyurethane (NIPU) wood adhesive was produced from organosolv lignin, which is a bio-sourced raw material, available in large quantities and as by-product of the paper industry. The formulation this new lignin-based NIPU adhesive, presented, chemically characterised by Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time Flight (MALDI ToF) mass spectrometry Fourier Transform...

In this work the microstructure transition width from amorphous to microcrystalline silicon is discussed. It is shown that the width of the transition depends on the input silane concentration level and indirectly on the silane depletion level. The higher the input silane concentration and depletion, the wider the transition. Experimental results are then compared to an analytical model and goo...

Silane (SiH4) is found to (partially) decompose at pressures above 50 GPa at room temperature into pure Si and H2. The released hydrogen reacts with surrounding metals in the diamond anvil cell to form metal hydrides. A formation of rhenium hydride is observed after the decomposition of silane. From the data of a previous experimental report (Eremets et al., Science 319, 1506 (2008)), the claim...

The site-selective assembly of colloidal polymer particles onto laterally patterned silane layers was studied as a model system for the object assembly process at mesoscale dimensions. The structured silane monolayers on silicon oxide substrates were fabricated by a combination of liquid- and gas-phase deposition of different trialkoxysilanes with a photolithographic patterning technique. By us...
