In this study, porous silica (SiO 2 ) film is reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs), which gets homogeneously dispersed in porous SiO 2 gel by ultrasonic stirring. The size of SiO 2 molecules is the same as that of nanotubes, so a fine CNTs/SiO 2 network is formed. Nanoindenters used to test the mechanical propertie…

Abstract X-ray diffraction shows that ordered interlayer structures form when high-charged Llano vermiculite is reacted with HDTMA-Br or HDTMA-acetate, but the structures differ from those given by low-charged vermiculites. The differences arise in two ways; firstly when both HDTMA + cations and HDTMA-Br (or -acetate)…
