34. Exposure to Silica and Other Contaminants in Construction. Silica is a common mineral found in many materials on construction sites, including soil, sand, concrete, masonry, rock, granite, and landscaping materials. 1 Disturbing these materials can create crystalline silica dust. 1 Workers who breathe in this dust are at increased risk of developing silicosis and …Web

In silica–rubber based nanocomposites, a single organo-silicon is often used to compatibilize and covalently link silica to rubber. In this work, we have investigated the impact, at micro- and macroscales, of the decoupling of the hydrophobization and the coupling activity of silane by pretreating silica with two different silane chemistries.
