  1. Molecular Crosslinking of Calcium-Silicate-Hydrate with Organosilanes: Toward Engineering of Cementitious Matrices with High Thermal Resistance

    … cement hydration, are directly bridged with bis-organosilanes molecules. The crosslinking with organic molecules provides C-S-H with attributes imperative for the reduced thermal conductivity e.g. contrast in vibrational densities of states and reduced particle density, which can positively alter …

  3. ATR-FTIR spectroscopy and Raman microscopy studies of organosilane diffusion and hydrolysis in PVC films.

    Organosilanes are widely used to bond organic materials such as polymers to inorganic materials in polymer composites. However, the mechanism of adhesion is poorly understood. One postulated mechanism is the interdiffusion of the silane and polymer, along with condensation of the silane to form an …
