Hybrid sols of poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/Silicon oxide-titanium oxide (SiO2-TiO2) were prepared with tetraethoxylsilane and tetrabutyl titanate as precursor using Sol-Gel method. PVA/SiO2-TiO2 hybrid fibers were prepared by drawing from the hybrid sols using dip-coating method and aging treatment. The spinnability of hybrid sols was investigated. Spinnable time (t) and spinnable length (l) of ...

The purpose of this research is to use Linked Open Data (LOD) to support history learning on the Internet. The main issue to create meaningful content-dependent advice for learners is that the system requires an understanding of the learning domain. The learners use the Semantic Open Learning Space (SOLS) to create a machine-understandable concept map that represent their knowledge. SOLS is abl...

SiO2-ZrO2 sols have been prepared via acid catalysis using a commercial colloidal suspension of zirconia and two silica alkoxides; tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and methyltriethoxysilane (MTES). Suspensions with 10, 15 and 25-mol% of ZrO2 were prepared. The stability of the suspensions was followed by rheological measurements showing that the amount of water incorporated with the colloidal suspensio...
