Engineering Properties of New-Age (Nano) Modified Emulsion (NME) Stabilised Naturally Available Granular Road Pavement Materials Explained Using Basic Chemistry

Nanoscale organofunctional silanes have been developed, tested and successfully applied to protect stone buildings in Europe against climatic effects since the 1860s. The same nanotechnologies can also be used in pavement engineering to create strong chemical bonds between a stabilising agent and granular material. The attachment of the organofunctional silane to a material also changes the surface of the material to become hydrophobic, thereby considerably reducing future chemical weathering. These properties allow naturally available materials to be used in any pavement layer at a low risk. In the built environment, scientists soon determined that the successful use of an organo-silane depends on the type and condition of the stone to be treated. The same principles apply to the implementation of applicable nanotechnologies in pavement engineering. Understanding the basic chemistry, determining the properties of the stabilising agent and the organofunctional modifying agent and the chemical interaction with the primary and secondary minerals of the material are essential for the successful application of these technologies in pavement engineering. This paper explains some basic chemistry, which fundamentally influences engineering outputs that can be achieved using New-age (Nano) Modified Emulsions (NME) stabilising agents with naturally available granular materials in all road pavement layers below the surfacing.

The fatty acids based organofunctional silane protective coatings for concrete

The possibility of using free fatty acids for the synthesis of new organofunctional silanes is shown. In nature, fatty acids occur in the form of esters with glycerin (fats) and are widely used for production of soap, oil paints, medicines and cosmetics. Of particular interest in this study was the application of organosilicon derivatives of oleic acid for production of coating that would cover the surface of concrete and protect it from water permeation. As a result of proposed silanization, the concrete surface acquired hydrophobic character with the wetting angles up to 115°, and the concrete absorbability was reduced by up to 93%.

Mechanism Confirmation of Organofunctional Silanes Modified Water Glass/Polyurethane-Urea Composites for Remarkably Enhanced Mechanical Properties

Hybrid reinforced water glass/polyurethane-urea (WG/PU) composites mainly derived from low-cost WG and polyisocyanate are produced in the presence of 3-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane (CTS). The wettability of WG on PU substrate surface is significantly improved as CTS content increases from 0.0 wt% to 3.5 wt%. Furthermore, with 2.5 wt% of CTS optimal addition, the fracture surface morphology and elemental composition of the resulting WG/PU composites are characterized, as well as mechanical properties, chemical structure and thermal properties. The results indicate that the CTS forms multiple physical and chemical interactions with the WG/PU composites to induce an optimized organic-inorganic hybrid network structure thus achieving simultaneous improvement of compressive strength, flexural strength, flexural modulus and fracture toughness of the WG/PU composites, with the improvement of 12.9%, 6.6%, 17.5% and 9.7%, respectively. Moreover, the CTS in the WG/PU composites has a significant influence on the curing process of the WG/PU composites by accelerating the rate of mass and heat transfer. Additionally, a reasonable mechanism explanation for CTS modified WG/PU composites is confirmed.

Stable carboxylic acid derivatized alkoxy silanes

A convenient and straightforward one-pot hydrosilylation reaction of different unsaturated carboxylic acids with trialkoxysilanes in the presence of catalytic amounts of platinum(iv) dioxide resulted in excellent yields in organofunctional silanes combining carboxy- and alkoxy groups within one molecule.

Selective surface modification of lithographic silicon oxide nanostructures by organofunctional silanes

This study investigates the controlled chemical functionalization of silicon oxide nanostructures prepared by AFM-anodization lithography of alkyl-terminated silicon. Different conditions for the growth of covalently bound mono-, multi- or submonolayers of distinctively functional silane molecules on nanostructures have been identified by AFM-height investigations. Routes for the preparation of methyl- or amino-terminated structures or silicon surfaces are presented and discussed. The formation of silane monolayers on nanoscopic silicon oxide nanostructures was found to be much more sensitive towards ambient humidity than, e.g., the silanization of larger OH-terminated silica surfaces. Amino-functionalized nanostructures have been successfully modified by the covalent binding of functional fluorescein dye molecules. Upon excitation, the dye-functionalized structures show only weak fluorescence, which may be an indication of a relatively low surface coverage of the dye molecules on length scale that is not accessible by standard AFM measurements.

Long-Chain Organofunctional Silanes: Synthesis and Surface Derivatization

A series of organofunctional long-chain alkylfunctional silanes have been synthesized for the purpose of derivatization of micro- and nanoparticles and generation of molecular monolayers and films on the substrates. 11-bromoundecylsilane and 1, 10-disiladecane are evaluated to interact with a variety of clean hydrogenated metal and metalloid including titanium, silicon and silicon dioxide. The surface of those treated substrates has been analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and reflection-absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS). Our preliminary results indicate that self-assembled monolayer has been well formed on titanium metal and silicon wafer, minimally on silicon-dioxide. The discussion of experimental results is also provided.
