Soil is composed of organic matter, minerals, gases, liquids, and organisms that together support life. It is a responsible for the plant growth; means of water storage, supply and purification; ...

Researchers have developed a model system for so-called soft colloids. The model gives us a better understanding of correlations between the atomic structure of colloids and their perceptible material ...

This paper is devoted to the steady-state rheological properties of two new kinds of ferrofluids. One of these was constituted by CoNi nanospheres of 24 nm in diameter, whereas the other by CoNi ...

Advanced research has been conducted to develop innovative functional foods with enhanced nutritional and functional properties in response to the growing demand for improving human health and ...

Biochar pyrolyzed by biomass shows excellent application prospects for heavy metal (HM) remediation, but a part of biochar can be inevitably broken into micro- and nano-sized biochar colloids (BCs) ...

Although the experimental study of spherical colloids has been extensive, similar studies on rodlike particles are rare because suitable model systems are scarcely available. To fulfill this need, we ...

THE increasing recognition of the importance of a study of colloidal matter, both for physical theory and for industrial practice, has led to a growing demand for text-books dealing specially with ...

Nanotechnology is generally seen as a relatively new invention. It is generally accepted to have been officially born as a discipline with Richard Feynman's 1959 lecture, "There's plenty of room at ...

ABSTRACT: This work is devoted to the synthesis and stabilization of nanosized Ag/SiO2 and Au/SiO2 disperse materials and investigation their morphology, optical and antimicrobial properties. First, ...
