About this document
Hydrophobic Silica via PDMS and DEC by carlos_bautista_55 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The article presents a novel method for preparing hydrophobic silica nanoparticles by modifying silica surfaces with poly(dimethylsiloxanes) (PDMS) and diethyl carbonate (DEC). This approach enhances the carbon content and hydrophobic properties of the silica, making it suitable for applications as fillers in polymer systems and thickeners in dispersing media. The study employs various characterization techniques to confirm the effectiveness of the modification and the resulting nanoparticles
