Abstract As energy costs are rising, the utilization of thermal insulating materials during construction has assumed paramount significance. The response different building components to changes in external temperature depends on material’s properties. investigation connected concrete material properties is an essential factor when used for constructing green buildings. effect adding nano-silic...

Passive method is a new procedure in stabilizing loose soils. This methodology is a type of interlocking soil particles structures. In order to optimum improve in this method, it is necessary to achieve proper penetration length and increase the shear strength of parameters. Researches have shown an increased resistance to liquefaction and decreased permeability due to colloidal Nano silica inj...

This work is concerned with the surface modification of fluorescent silica nanoparticles by a monoclonal antibody (M75) and the specific bioadhesion of such particles to surfaces containing the PG domain of carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX), which is a trans-membrane protein specifically expressed on the surfaces of several tumor cell lines. The adhesion strength of antibody-bearing silica nanopart...

The logarithmic relaxation process is the slowest of all relaxation processes and is exhibited by only a few molecular liquids and proteins. Bulk salol, which is a glass-forming liquid, is known to exhibit logarithmic decay of intermediate scattering function for the β-relaxation process. In this article, we report the influence of nanoscale confinements on the logarithmic relaxation process an...

In the last decade, nanomaterials made a major breakthrough in concrete industry by providing with unique properties. Earlier studies have shown improvement early strength of that can accelerate construction process. this study, 1% and 2% nano-silica were added to mixtures contain 30% 70% ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS). Adding GGBS mixture showed an increase compressive 13.5%, 7.8%...

We report a versatile approach to synthesize silica coatings with antireflective (AR) characteristics through the combination of a layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly technique and biomineralization. LbL assembled decanoyl-modified poly(l-lysine)/poly(l-glutamic acid) (PLL-g-Dec/PLGA) multilayer films were used as templates for silica mineralization, followed by calcination. The specific deposition o...
