Description
Summary:The developing nanotechnology is getting infiltrated into a wide area of industries. A variety of nanotextiles can be produced from different materials (e.g. polymers, SiO2). Their applications are possible in many industrial branches as well as civil engineering. Silica-based nanotextiles can play a fundamental role in civil engineering. The potential utilization of nanotextiles in civil engineering is promising as surface protective layers. Wettability of SiO2 nanotextiles was studied on different thicknesses of samples and were tested under static conditions by determination of the water contact angle. Their water contact angle, which indicates the degree of wetting, was measured using an optical tensiometer.
