The resultant microcapsules were well-shaped and uniform sphere with diameter ranging from 2 to 6 um. Thermogravimetry (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curves revealed that the microcapsules showed good thermal stability (no decomposition observed under 245℃). Besides, the microencapsulated TiC2 has been used as an efficient catalyst for photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange. Furthermore, the photocatalysis of immobilized TiC2 could be enhanced by introducing UV absorbing agent to the wall of microcapsules.展开更多

Then, the inorganic-organic hybrid aqueous dispersion composed of such a silica sol and an emulsion of styrene (St) and acrylate (Ac) copolymer was prepared and the hybrid effect between the silica sol and poly(St-co-Ac) was observed by Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR) spectroscope. The toughness of the film prepared by this kind of hybrid aqueous dispersion was excellent, as it was enhanced appreciably by commixing with a small amount of poly(St-co-Ac) emulsion. Some amino-polysiloxane modified hybrid aqueous dispersions were also prepared and the properties of the modified dispersions and their films were investigated. The experimental results showed that the film prepared with such an amino-polysiloxane modified hybrid dispersion exhibited excellent hydrophobicity and low surface energy after heat treatment for 1.5 h, during which the formation of the graft copolymer was observed. The surface energy of this film decreases as a result of the enrichment of siloxane segments on the film surface.展开更多

The effect of the contents of H2O and PDMS on thin films was studied. When the volume ratio of H20 to TEOS is 0.5, the optimum quality of thin films is obtained. And the gelation time is affected slightly by H20 content. Uniform thin films are obtained when the volume ratio of PDMS to TEOS is 0.2. Yet, the sol would be inactive in 6 d. Various properties of thin films were studied, including hardness, adhesive quality, hydrophobic property, corrosion protection property, and abrasion resistance. Test results show that the pencil hardness is generally 3-6 H, and adhesive quality achieves the highest standard of 0. When the sintering temperature is below 400℃, the contact angle is about 95° and hydrophobic films are obtained. The abrasion resistance of thin films is better than that of aluminum alloy when the sintering temperature is higher than 300℃. And the excellent corrosion protective effect is obtained by single-layer coating when the sintering temperature is higher than 400℃.展开更多

The result of PAS FTIR and image of TEM showed that the structure of BS particles was smiliar to that of kaolinite clay. On the surface of BS, both toluene insoluble organic matter and structural OH group are detected at the same time. The surface characteristics imparted a bi-wettable nature to the BS. As a result, the BS is able to stabilize fine water emulsion in the bitumen phase. The organic matter associated with BS is a possible factor of the fouling on catalyst and equipment.展开更多

It was found that the protective agent, sodium polyacrylate (PA),could obviously improve the polymerization stability and the functional monomer, glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), could enhance the store stability of the latex. The particle size of poly(St-co-BA) latex decreased and then leveled off as OIHC content increased. TEM shows that the prepared polymers were actually organic-inorganic nanocomposites, and these films have better waterproof property than those prepared by traditional poly(St-co-BA) latex or organic silicone modified poly(St-co-BA) latex. The nanocomposite polymer has much higher glass transition temperature than organic silicone modified poly(St-co-BA) polymer containing the same organic silicone content.展开更多
