Montmorillonite minerals were modified in two distinct steps in order to remove hydroxlated toxicants from the aqueous environment. At first, the montmorillonite minerals were acrylated with the silylating agent gamma ...

Poly(methacrylic acid) and poly(acrylic acid) nanocomposites were prepared by in-situ polymerization of gamma-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (A174)/clay nanocomposites in which the macromonomer was generated by grafting ...

In this study, interaction of the silane coupling agent 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propylmethacrylate (A-174) and asbestos was investigated. A-174 grafted onto the surface of the asbestos was polymerized by radical initiator. ...

The effect of water absorption on the chemical and mechanical properties of hydrophobic filler containing epoxy matrix composites was investigated by keeping them in distilled water for 9 months. Aerosil R812 (8 nm) and ...
