Optimizing the synthesis of nanostructured SiO2 from Ethiopian pumice for use in rubber reinforcement

Abstract This study investigated the optimization of synthesis parameters for producing nanostructured SiO2 from Ethiopian pumice for use as rubber reinforcement. Important variables such as pH, sol‒gel synthesis temperature, stirring rate, calcination temperature, sodium silicate modulus, NaOH conc...
