Self-catalytic cross-linking reaction and reactive mechanism studies of α-aminomethyl triethoxysilanes for α,ω-dihydroxy poly(dimethylsiloxane)

Some kinds of aminomethyl triethoxysilanes, cross-linkers of α,ω-dihydroxy poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS), can act as catalyst to self-catalyze the cross-linking reaction with PDMS, as found in our studies. Three kinds of α-aminomethylsilanes, [(diethyl)aminomethyl triethoxysilane (DMTS), anilinomethyl triethoxysilane (AMTS) and cyclohexylaminomethyl triethoxysilane (CMTS)], and two kinds of γ-aminopropyl silanes, [(γ-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTS) and (N-β-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (AATS)] were selected to study the self-catalytic cross-linking reaction and its mechanism. The reactivity of the cross-linkers determined by n-hexane extraction experiments, was found to be DMTS > CMTS ? AMTS, but APTS and AATS could not react with PDMS without catalysis. The cross-linking degree was increased with the reactivity. The results of extraction experiments and Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR) spectra indicated that the cross-linking reaction was an equimolar reaction between the Si-OH groups and Si-OC₂H₅ groups. Formation of electron conjugation of N and Si in α-aminomethyl triethoxysilane molecules has been proposed to elucidate the mechanism of the self-catalytic cross-linking reaction. The Modulated Differential Scanning Calorimeter (MDSC) results showed that the increase of the glass-transition temperature (T_g) of the cross-linked products was dependent on the reactivity of the cross-linkers. The thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) results demonstrated that the thermal stabilities of the cross-linked products were also related to the reactivity and the structures of the cross-linkers.     

Synthesis and characterization of water-soluble silsesquioxane-based nanoparticles by hydrolytic condensation of triethoxysilane derived from 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate

A new family of silsesquioxane-based nanoparticles was synthesized by hydrolytic condensation of a triethoxysilane precursor, R-Si(OCH2CH3)3, R = -CH2CH2CH2N(CH2CH2COOCH2CH2OH)2, derived from 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate. Condensation of the triethoxysilane precursor proceeded as a homogeneous system in methanol in the presence of hydrofluoric acid (HF) to afford water-soluble silsesquioxane-based nanoparticles, as confirmed by NMR, FT-IR, and elemental analyses. Scanning force microscopy (SFM) measurements indicated the formation of nanoparticles having a relatively narrow size distribution with an average particle diameter of less than 2.0 nm without aggregation. The size of the nanoparticles (1.7 nm) was determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The narrow polydispersity (Mw/Mn = 1.08) and a reasonable molecular weight (Mn = 3300), corresponding to species having 6-12 silicon atoms, were also confirmed by size-exclusion chromatography. Co-condensation of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) with the triethoxysilane precursor was carried out under different feed ratios, and water-soluble products were obtained in the cases of TEOS molar ratios up to 70%. Thermal stability and the char yield were found to increase with increasing TEOS content in the feed, as determined by thermogravimetric analysis. The isolated nanoparticles distributed homogeneously without any aggregation were visualized by SFM, when the product was prepared at TEOS/triethoxysilane precursor = 50/50 mol %.

Study of the effect of organo-substituted trialkoxysilanes on the textural and structural properties of mesoporous silica

The effect of additives of organo-substituted trialkoxysilanes: (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES), (2-cyanoethyl)triethoxysilane (CNETES), and tris(trimethylsiloxy)silane (TTMSS) as cosources of silica on its textural and structural properties was studied. The influence of organo-substituted trialkoxysilane additives on the variation of porous structure parameters of mesoporous silica during the hydrothermal treatment was demonstrated.

Immobilization of 3,5‐dimethylphenylcarbamates of cellulose and amylose onto silica gel using (3‐glycidoxypropyl)triethoxysilane as linker

The 3,5‐dimethylphenylcarbamates of cellulose and amylose were effectively immobilized onto plain silica gels as chiral packing materials (CPMs) for HPLC by means of intermolecular polycondensation of triethoxysilyl groups introduced with (3‐glycidoxypropyl)triethoxysilane. The immobilization and chiral recognition abilities of the obtained CPMs prepared with different amounts of (3‐glycidoxypropyl)triethoxysilane were investigated. In addition, the solvent compatibilities of the immobilized‐type CPMs were examined with eluents containing chloroform and THF. When these eluents were used, for most of the tested racemates, the chiral resolving abilities of the obtained CPMs were improved.     

Synthesis and characterisation of silica hybrids based on poly(ε-caprolactone-b-perfluoropolyether-b-ε-caprolactone)

Poly(ε-caprolactone-b-perfluoropolyether-b-ε-caprolactone) (PCL-PFPE-PCL) triblock copolymers having hydroxy end groups were readily functionalised with triethoxysilane end groups by reactions with 3-isocyanatopropyltriethoxysilane. Organic-inorganic hybrids were prepared by using the sol-gel process in the presence of tetraethoxysilane and hydroxy or triethoxysilane terminated PCL-PFPE-PCL. Fully transparent hybrid materials with high content of organic matter were obtained only in the case of alkoxysilane functionalised copolymers. For such systems the PCL-PFPE-PCL copolymer was so intimately mixed with the inorganic network to prevent crystallisation of the PCL segments. The progress of the sol-gel reaction was limited by the early vetrification of the reactive system, while the interpenetration of the organic phase was enhanced by curing the samples at 100 °C.     

Hybird Membrane with High Proton Conductivity and Selectivity Based on SPEEK for Direct Methanol Fuel Cells

Composite membranes based on sulfonated silica/sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone)(SPEEK) were prepared by means of sol-gel method so as to gain a high conductivity and reasonable methanol permeability.The sulfonated silica is generated in situ via the hydrolysis of sulfonated 3-anminopropyl triethoxysilane(KH550) synthesized newly from 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane and 1,4-butane sultone.The membrane with a silica mass fraction of 5% exhibits a conductivity of 0.187 S/cm at 80 °C and a methanol coefficient with 9.72×10-7 cm2/s.The composite membranes show improved condutive ability and better selectivity that can be promisingly used in direct methanol fuel cell.     

Rare earth hybrid materials of organically modified silica covalently bonded to a GaN matrix: multicomponent assembly and multi-color luminescence

Three kinds of rare earth hybrid materials with enhanced thermostability and photoluminescence properties have been prepared for the first time by using a functionalized GaN matrix as one of the building blocks. A number of silane coupling agents (isocyanate triethoxysilane (ICTES), 3-chloropropyl triethoxysilane (CPTES) and 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES)) behave as the covalent linkages for modification by both hydroxylation of GaN and functionalized photoactive ligands (4-mercaptobenzoic acid (MBA), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (HBA) and nitrobenzoyl chloride (NBC)), resulting in the precursors (MBA-ICTES-GaN, HBA-CPTES-GaN and NBC-APTES-GaN). Subsequently, multicomponent photofunctional rare earth hybrid materials with the three precursors and 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) are assembled and characterized by their FTIR spectra, UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra, XRD patterns, and photoluminescent behaviour (luminescence, lifetime, quantum efficiency, and energy transfer). These results reveal that the Eu(3+) hybrids with the MBA-ICTES-GaN unit have a better luminescence intensity ratio, higher quantum efficiency and longer lifetime than those with the HBA-CPTES-GaN and NBC-APTES-GaN units. Meanwhile the hybrid Phen-Tb-HBA-CPTES-GaN possesses a stronger characteristic emission of Tb(3+) ions than the other two hybrids (Phen-Tb-MBA-ICTES-GaN and Phen-Tb-NBC-APTES-GaN). Moreover, two-color-based hybrid materials are fabricated by combining different molar ratios of Eu(3+) and Tb(3+) in the same system (Phen-RE-MBA-ICTES-GaN) with emission at a wavelength of 331 nm (RE = Eu, Tb) and yellow luminescence can be achieved.

Potentialities of silane-modified silicas to regulate palladium nanoparticles sizes

A promising approach to control palladium nanoparticle sizes by application of silane modified silicas was suggested. The combination of reductive properties of silicon hydride groups and hydrophobic properties of alkylsilyl groups which act as agglomeration limiters for metal nanoparticles gives an opportunity to synthesize uniformly distributed particles with a specified size. Silicas modified with triethoxysilane (TES) and diisopropylchlorosilane (DIPCS), as well as, the combination of hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) and triethoxysilane were applied for formation of such bifunctional matrices. Properties of the silane-modified silica samples and changes occurred during the formation of palladium nanoparticles were studied by IR spectroscopy. Thermal stability of surface chemical compounds was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA); low-temperature nitrogen adsorption was used to study structural properties of the applied materials. With the use of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) the dependence of palladium nanoparticle size on the nature of support surface layer was found.     

Surface modified ormosil nanoparticles

Organically modified silanes (ORMOSIL) such as vinyl triethoxysilane readily aggregate in the aqueous cores of reverse micelles where the triethoxysilane moieties are hydrolyzed to form a hydrated silica network and the vinyl groups protruded out from the surface of the nanoparticles toward the hydrophobic side of the micellar interface. These particles are spherical and the size distribution of the particles is relatively narrow, with an average diameter of 87 nm. Surface vinyl silica nanoparticles so formed have been oxidized to surface carboxylic silica nanoparticles, followed by chemical conjugation with polyethyleneglycol amine (PEG amine) through the ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) (EDCI) carbodiimide reaction. The characteristic surface groups have been identified by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, while the size and the morphology of the particles have been studied by dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. It has been found that about 80-85% of the carboxylic groups are PEGylated during the EDCI reaction.

Selecting the nature of imprinted molecular organosilica sieves with gallic acid via thermal analyses

The stability of the organosilica–gallic acid (GA) complex, and thus the strength of initial interactions which influences directly the sorption parameters of imprinted materials, is mostly given by the nature of co-monomers. Therefore, combining tetraethoxysilane, tetrametoxysilane, vinyl triethoxysilane and vinyl benzyl triethoxysilane as functional monomers, six formulations were obtained in order to optimise the nature of imprinted sieves. Vinyl benzyl trimethylammonium chloride and tertamethyl ammonium hydroxide directed the mesophase formation. Morphology and thermal properties of imprinted organosilica sieves were evaluated and compared to those of blank polymers synthesised in the same conditions as the imprinted ones but without GA. Thermal analysis results corroborated with the morphology of imprinted sieves were confirmed by specific GA sorption tests.

Design and Synthesis of Lipidic Organoalkoxysilanes for the Self‐Assembly of Liposomal Nanohybrid Cerasomes with Controlled Drug Release Properties

This paper reports the facile design and synthesis of a series of lipidic organoalkoxysilanes with different numbers of triethoxysilane headgroups and hydrophobic alkyl chains linked by glycerol and pentaerythritol for the construction of cerasomes with regulated surface siloxane density and controlled release behavior. It was found that the number of triethoxysilane headgroups affected the properties of the cerasomes for encapsulation efficiency, drug loading capacity, and release behavior. For both water‐soluble doxorubicin (DOX) and water‐insoluble paclitaxel (PTX), the release rate from the cerasomes decreased as the number of triethoxysilane headgroups increased. The slower release rate from the cerasomes was attributed to the higher density of the siloxane network on the surface of the cerasomes, which blocks the drug release channels. In contrast to the release results with DOX, the introduction of one more hydrophobic alkyl chain into the cerasome‐forming lipid resulted in a slower release rate of PTX from the cerasomes due to the formation of a more compact cerasome bilayer. An MTT viability assay showed that all of these drug‐loaded cerasomes inhibited proliferation of the HepG2 cancer cell line. The fine tuning of the chemical structure of the cerasome‐forming lipids would foster a new strategy to precisely regulate the release rate of drugs from cerasomes.

The use of a thermally reversible bond for molecular imprinting of silica spheres

A silica monomer-estrone complex (EstSi) having a thermally cleavable urethane bond and a cross-linkable triethoxysilane group was synthesized. From EstSi and TEOS, spherical silica particles with sizes of 1.5-3 mum were prepared. The template molecules were removed from the silica matrix by heating at 180 degrees C in DMSO in the presence of water, generating a cavity with an amino group. The control silica particles that had the same sizes and shapes were obtained with aminopropyl triethoxysilane and TEOS. When ethylene glycol was added in place of H2O, an ethyl alcoholic group was formed in the cavity. Their recognition ability and specific binding for estrone were characterized by uptake experiments. The estrone-imprinted silica particles showed a much higher recognition ability than the control silica particles and higher selectivity for estrone than testosterone propionate.     

Versatile functional poly(3‐hexylthiophene) for hybrid particles synthesis by the grafting onto technique: Core@shell ZnO nanorods

We demonstrate an efficient strategy to anchor poly(3‐hexylthiophene) (P3HT) onto zinc oxide (ZnO) surfaces. Synthesis of a novel triethoxysilane‐terminated regioregular P3HT is herein reported and supported by thorough characterization. Three triethoxysilane‐terminated P3HTs of different molar masses were prepared via a hydrosilylation reaction from allyl‐terminated P3HT. MALDI‐TOF and ¹H NMR were performed to characterize the polymer and show that around 80% of the chains are end‐functionalized. These polymers were then grafted onto the ZnO nanorods to create a macromolecular self‐assembled monolayer. This versatile technique could be subsequently applied to different metal oxide surfaces, such as silicon, titanium, or indium‐tin oxide, and represents a new one‐pot strategy based on triethoxysilane coupling reaction. Importantly, the influence of the molar mass on the grafting density and the polymer shell thickness was studied via thermo gravimetric analysis and transmission electron microscopy. The optical properties of the hybrid materials were determined by UV–visible absorption and photoluminescence to show a quenching effect of P3HT fluorescence by ZnO when grafted. This electronic transfer associated with an improved miscibility of the ZnO@P3HT, makes these hybrid materials suitable candidates for photovoltaic applications. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J.
