摘要:
Hydrated sodium silicate particles can be expanded by heat to form thin-walled bubbles that can be broken, neutralized, washed and dried to provide hydrated silica flakes. These flakes can be mixed with non-swelling sorptive particles such as TLC grade silica and used to make chromatographic articles. One such article is a composite of a poly(tetrafluoroethylene) fibril matrix in which those particles and hydrated or fired silica flakes are enmeshed. The hydrated silica flakes can be fired to a refractory state and then incorporated into protective coatings to enhance their resistance to abrasion while also better protecting the coated substrates from corrosion.

In the production of an article of extremely pure synthetic silicon dioxide, wherein silicon tetrachloride is mixed with water to effect hydrolysis, the resulting hydrolysis product is dried, and the resulting dried particulate product is further processed into the desired article, the improvement which comprises employing a ratio of silicon tetrachloride to water so that the hydrolysis product is in the form of a gel, distilling by-product hydrochloric acid out of the gel, preliminarily drying the gel at 100.degree. to 1000.degree. C. to produce an initial product, milling the initial product into a fine granulate at room temperature, separating from the milled granulate a fraction with a particle size of about 40 to 1000 .mu.m, and drying the screened-out granulate fraction while slowly heating to no more than 1400.degree. C. to form the resulting dried particulate product that is further processed into the desired article. As a result, high quality bubble free articles are produced.

The present invention relates to a process for preparing waterglass-based silica aerogels, wherein the process comprises (a) subjecting a certain amount of a vinyltrialcoxysilane to hydrolysis in the presence of water and an inorganic acid under stirring conditions to produce a hydrolyzed vinyltrialcoxysilane solution; (b) treating a waterglass solution with an acidic cationic-exchange resin to produce a silicic acid solution; (c) forming a sol phase by contacting the hydrolyzed vinylalcoxysilane solution with the silicic acid solution; (d) forming a gel phase by adjusting the pH of the sol phase to a value in the range of from 4 to 6; and (e) subjecting the gel phase to supercritical drying to produce an aerogel. The present invention is also related to waterglass-based silica aerogels obtained by the process according to the invention, which are functionalized with vinyl groups.

It is an object of the invention to provide an economically viable process for the production of hydrophobized aerogels which works both inexpensively and in a resource-conserving manner. 2.2. This object is achieved by the provision of a process for producing organically modified aerogels by producing a sol containing [SiO4/2] units and [RxSiO(4−X)/2] a units, where x may be the same or different and is 1, 2 or 3, and R may be the same or different and is hydrogen or an organic substituted or unsubstituted radical, using the sol to form a gel, surface-modifying the gel obtained in the presence of more than 0.1% by weight of a phase modifier in a mixture comprising organosiloxane and initiator, wherein the mixture contains at least 20% by weight of organosiloxane and wherein the initiator consists of acid or organosiloxane or mixtures thereof and the gels obtained are dried. 2.3. The aerogels provided can be used as insulating materials, especially in thermal insulation.
