ABSTRACTHalogenoalkoxides are promising molecular precursors useable in sol-gel technology. They exhibit a lower sensitivity towards hydrolysis than common alkoxides and so appear to be easier to handle. Some data about the structure of titanium chloroalkoxides, pure and with the addition of a controlled amount of water, were obtained using FT-Raman, while the effect of thermal treatment under nitrogen or oxygen was studied using TGA-IR coupling. Finally the oxide products were characterized by Raman and by ED-XRMA, proving mat chloroalkoxides could be used as molecular precursors of oxide by sol-gel process. We showed that TGA-FTIR coupling is a powerful tool in order to study a thermal treatment and could be used to optimize it.

ABSTRACTHybrid materials based on polysiloxanes and metal oxides (SiO2, TiO2, ZrO2) were prepared by hydrosilation of allyl acetoacetate (AAA) modified metal alkoxides (M(OR)4; M = Ti, Zr; R = ethyl, isopropyl) or vinyl triethoxysilane with poly(dimethylsiloxane-co-hydrosiloxane) (PDMS-co-PMHS). The obtained compounds acted as single-source precursors in the sol-gel process. Various spectroscopic methods showed the complete functionalization of the polysiloxane chains with the complexes. When alcohols were used as solvents in the sol-gel process, hybrid nanoparticles were obtained, as observed by dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and spectroscopic methods such as NMR and FT-IR.

Silica films prepared by the base catalyzed sol–gel process show poor mechanical property. In this study, silica anti-reflective films with good mechanical property have been prepared by the catalyzed sol–gel process with dimethyl formamide added as drying control chemical additives. The silica sol was first dip deposited onto substrate to form films on both sides of the substrate and then subjected to thermal treatment. After thermal treatment, the film was achieved due to the formation of porous structure in the resultant film as a result of decomposing tetraethylorthosilicate and dimethyl formamide. Nano-indenter measurement shows that the Young’s modulus and hardness of base catalyzed films are 10-20GPa and 0.25-0.55GPa, respectively. But the films added with dimethyl formamide are much better than those films derived from base-catalyzed silica sols, the Young’s modulus and hardness are 32-39GPa and 1.22-1.47GPa, respectively. The good mechanical properties make such films potential in both military and civil applications.

The Pseudoboehmite is an aluminum compound used as an alumina precursor and it is produced by sol-gel process. The sol-gel process is a methodology to produce porous, vitreous or crystalline ceramics started by molecular precursors. Pseudoboehmite with high purity, high specific surface area and porous homogeneity was obtained by sol-gel process. The material was used to produce gamma-alumina with surface area ranging from 211.2-288.1m2/g. It was studied the effect of aging time, temperature of aging and poly (vinyl alcohol) addition in the synthesis.

ABSTRACTThe starting sols were prepared by addition of ammonium hydroxide to acidic solutions of Y-Ba-Cu acetates or by dissolving solid Ba9CO9 or CuCO9.CuCOH)2H2O in acetates of the remaining components. The sols were then gelled to spherical particles with diameter below 50μm by extracting water with 2-ethyl-l-hexanol or to shard by evaporation of water. After thermal treatment of both powders amorphous and then crystalline YBa2Cu,9O7−x were obtained. Formation of these compounds is strongly improved by aging the gel at 200°C. Green and sintered pellets exhibit excellent superconductivity properties.

ABSTRACTThe starling acetate sols of molar compositions of Bi:Pb:Sr:Ca:Cu=I-2:O:2:l: 2, 11–2:0:2:2:3 and 111–1.6:0.4:2:2:3 were prepared by NH4OH addition at various rates, followed by evaporation. Sols were gelled by further evaporation to shard or to microspheres (diameter below 100 μm) by water extraction from the sol emulsion drops formed in 2-ethyl-l-hexanol. The gels were converted to BSCCO phases by thermal treatment. The processes were characterized by XRD and IR examinations. The influence of the sol preparation step connected with formation of polynuclear cations on the following stages of the process was examined.
