Effect of Modified Nano-Silica on the Reinforcement of Styrene Butadiene Rubber Composites

The performance of styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) composites filled with nano-silica has been improved by surface modification of the nano-silica using silane coupling agents. The dispersion of nano-silica in SBR rubber and the bonding force of nano-silica with SBR were significantly improved, and the physical and mechanical properties of the vulcanized rubber were greatly improved. The results showed Si69 (bis-(γ- triethoxysilylpropyl)-tetrasulfide) was the best modifier among the six silane coupling agents used in the experiments, and its optimum amount was 12% (wt) of nano-silica.     

A Study on the Morphology and Mechanical Properties of PVC/nano‐SiO2 Composites

Three methods were used to modify nano‐SiO₂ particles with various interfaces and interfacial interactions between the particles and Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) matrix. The experimental results show that direct surface treatment of nano‐SiO₂ particles with a silane coupling agent (KH‐550) is not effective for improving the mechanical properties of PVC/SiO₂ composites. Both ultrasonic oscillations and high energy vibromilling improve the interfacial interactions between SiO₂ particles and PVC matrix. With these methods, the aggregation of SiO₂ particles was inhibited and a good dispersion of SiO₂ particles in PVC matrix was obtained, which improved the mechanical properties of the PVC/SiO₂ composite. The mechanical properties of the PVC/SiO₂ composite with high energy vibromilling modified SiO₂ particles were remarkably improved. Scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), transmission electronic microscopy (TEM), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and theoretical calculations demonstrate these improvements.     

Surface characterization of polyethylene terephthalate/silica nanocomposites

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) based nanocomposites containing hydrophilic (i.e. Aerosil 200 or Aerosil TT 600) or hydrophobic (i.e. Aerosil R 972) nano-silica were prepared by melt compounding. Influence of nano-silica type on surface properties of the resultant nanocomposites was investigated by the use of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), atomic force microscopy (AFM), contact angle measurement (CAM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and reflectance spectroscopy (RS). The possible interaction between nano-silica particles and PET functional groups at bulk and surface were elucidated by transmission FTIR and FTIR-ATR spectroscopy, respectively. AFM studies of the resultant nanocomposites showed increased surface roughness compared to pure PET. Contact angle measurements of the resultant PET composites demonstrated that the wettability of such composites depends on surface treatment of the particular nano-silica particles used. SEM images illustrated that hydrophilic nano-silica particles tended to migrate to the surface of the PET matrix.     

Details of crystalline growth in co-deposited electroplated nickel films with hard (nano)particles

Electroplated nickel dispersion films with incorporated hard particles, primarily titanium oxide, were studied. A sufficient dispersion of nanometre-scaled particles in Watts solution was reached by application of ultrasonic energy to the galvanic bath. Crystal morphology, mean grain size and formation of textures were examined by electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The typical columnar structure of pure Ni films was refined by means of ultrasound. Incorporation of micron-sized TiO₂ particles generates additional nucleation surfaces in contrast to SiC particles. Textures of the subsequent columnar nickel crystals change from 〈2 1 1〉 (silent condition) or 〈1 1 0〉 (ultrasonic condition) fibre textures in growth direction to 〈1 0 0〉 and 〈1 1 1〉 textures under the influence of nanoparticle incorporation. Moreover, nanoparticles remarkably decrease the grain size and grain aspect ratio. Their incorporation takes place inside the crystals as well as between grains.     

Effect of cavitation bubble on the dispersion of magnetorheological polishing fluid under ultrasonic preparation

In the ultrasonic dispersion process, the ultrasonic cavitation effect can seriously affect the dispersion efficiency of magnetorheological polishing fluid (MRPF), but the mechanism remains unclear now. Through considering the continuity equation and Vand viscosity equation of the suspension, a revised cavitation bubble dynamic model in the MRPF was developed and calculated. The effects of presence or absence of solid particles, the volume fraction of solid particles, and viscosity on the cavitation bubble motion characteristics in the MRPF were discussed. Settlement experiments of the MRPF under ultrasonic and mechanical dispersion were observed. Analysis of particle dispersion is made by trinocular biomicroscope and image processing of the microscopic morphology of the MRPF. The results show that the high volume fraction of carbonyl iron particle (CIP) will significantly weaken the cavitation effect, and the low volume fraction of green silicon carbide (GSC) has a negligible effect on the cavitation effect in the MRPF. When the liquid viscosity is greater than or equal to 0.1 Pa·s, it is inconvenient to produce micro-jets in the MRPF. The sedimentation rate of the MRPF prepared by ultrasonic dispersion is lower than mechanical dispersion when the volume fraction of CIP is between 1% and 25%. The dispersion ratio under ultrasonic dispersion is lower than that under mechanical dispersion. The experimental results fit the simulation well. It offers a theoretical basis for exploring the ultrasonic cavitation effect in the industrial application of the MRPF.     

Preparation of Silica/Poly(divinylbenzene) Composite Particles by Dispersion Polymerization in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

Silica/poly(divinylbenzene) (PDVB) composite particles were synthesized by the dispersion polymerization of divinylbenzene (DVB) with ultrafine silica particles in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO₂). Silica particles of average diameter 130 nm were pretreated with 3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate in order to be well dispersed in CO₂ and participated in the polymerization. Random copolymeric dispersant, poly(diisopropylaminoethyl methacrylate-co-heptafluorobutyl methacrylate) was used as a stabilizer to provide sufficient stabilization to latexes in scCO₂ and the silica/PDVB composite powder was obtained in high yield from the polymerization. SEM analysis revealed that the composite particles prepared at 5% silica loading ratio and 6% stabilizer concentration with respect to monomer have the average diameter of 1.60 μm with uniform and spherical morphology. The composites were also characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and TGA.     

Pickering emulsion prepared by nano-silica particles – A comparative study for exploring the effect of various mechanical methods

Pickering emulsions are eco-friendly, stabilized by solid particles, and have an essential role in leading industries. Although Pickering emulations have found several applications, surprisingly few investigations have attempted to explore the effectiveness of various mechanical processes for its production. To fill these gaps, the present investigation comprehensively examined the application of various Pickering emulsion preparation processes such as rotor-stator homogenization emulsification (R-SH), ultrasonic emulsification, and their combined processes by using nano-silica particles. The influences of emulsification time and intensity on emulsion droplets' distribution were analyzed as indicative factors. The kerosene/water nano-silica Pickering emulsion was utilized for all assessments. The obtained results demonstrated that the main distribution peak of the emulsion prepared by R-SH occurred where the chord length was greater than 40 μm. Micro-scale nano-silica-aggregates generated large droplets, while the fine-emulsion fraction was significantly increased after ultrasonic treatment. The experimental results showed that the emulsion prepared only by ultrasound needed substantial power to form a Pickering emulsion since the oil phase was difficult to disperse in the water phase. Finally, it was concluded that preprocessing by R-SH could form a stable and uniform emulsion speedily, which is essential for ultrasound emulsion preparation.     

Influence of the porosity on the dispersion of the phase velocity of longitudinal acoustic waves in isotropic metal-matrix composites

The influence of the volumetric porosity of isotropic metal-matrix composite materials, which are reinforced with ceramic microparticles, on the dispersion of the phase velocity of longitudinal acoustic waves is investigated. For this purpose, the method of broadband acoustic spectroscopy with a laser source of ultrasound and piezoelectric detection of nanosecond ultrasonic pulses is used. Composite samples based on a silumin matrix with added silicon carbide (SiC) microparticles in different mass concentrations (3.8–15.5%) were investigated. As the concentration of SiC particles in a sample increases, its porosity that is determined using the hydrostatic-weighing method also increases. The simultaneous increase in the filler concentration and porosity leads to the appearance of a dispersion of the phase velocity of longitudinal acoustic waves in the sample within the frequency range of 3–25 MHz. The obtained empirical relationship between the relative change in the phase velocity and the sample porosity can be used to obtain a proximate quantitative estimate of the bulk porosity of the isotropic metal-matrix composite materials.
