Photochromic materials have been extensively studied because they are quite attractive and
promising for many applications. Tungsten oxide (WO3), a typical photochromic material …

There are many applications of TiO 2 such as paints and plastics due to its excellent
properties such as high whiteness and strong hiding power. To eliminate the pollution in the …

Cooling down the surface temperature of buildings and saving energy consumption are
tasks of top priority in mitigating the urban heat island (UHI) effect. The bright and colorful …

We present a facile approach to the production of magnetic iron oxide short nanotubes
(SNTs) employing an anion-assisted hydrothermal route by simultaneously using phosphate …

Rutile TiO2-coated mica–titania pigments were prepared by hydrolysis of TiCl4 ethanolic
solution in water at 70° C. MnO2 as a rutile promoting additive was deposited onto mica …

Spherical nano-sized iron oxide particles were synthesized by a spray pyrolysis method
using the aerosol technique described herein. The effects of reaction temperatures of 500 …

The paper deals with a new anticorrosion pigment, synthesized on a core-shell basis. For its
syntheses a starting substance is used that forms the lamellar shaped core; namely lamellar …

Different additives are used to enhance the microbial activity and ensure the suitable
environment for anaerobic microorganisms in anaerobic digestion (AD) process. This study …

Comparison of properties of diatomite and kaoline in paints were studied in dependence on
their volume concentration (PVC). Model paints were prepared containing increasing filler …

ZnO, ZnO/core, MgO and MgO/core oxides were synthesized; their morphology was
evaluated and their impact on the physical properties of the paint film was assessed. The …
