帽状铝纳米粒子的制备及表面等离子共振特性

金属纳米材料具有许多独特的物理和化学性质,其中一个重要的光学性质就是表面等离子共振,然而在大多数情况下,金属纳米粒子表面等离子共振所产生的吸收峰被限制在相对狭小的范围内,很难进行调谐。近年来,以电介质为核金属为壳的核壳结构复合纳米材料成功的解决了这一问题,通过设计和剪裁内核的直径与外壳层厚度的比值,可以实现光学性质可调的特性[1～5]。此类复合材料可被广泛应用于光催化、传感器、光信息存储、生物光子学、生物医学等领域[6～11]。美国莱斯大学及德州的研究人员利用这类核壳结构纳米材料成功地实现了对体外乳腺肿瘤的杀灭实验[12]。在这种类型的材料中,对称性降低的即不完全包裹的纳米粒子如杯状[13]、帽状[13,14]、半球壳状[15]、月牙状[16]等核壳结构复合粒子由

Synthesis of Fe3O4\SiO2\Ag nanoparticles and its application in surface-enhanced Raman scattering

To obtain a recyclable surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) material, we developed a composite of Fe₃O₄\SiO₂\Ag with core\shell\particles structure. The designed particles were synthesized via an ultrasonic route. The Raman scattering signal of Fe₃O₄ could be shielded by increasing the thickness of the SiO₂ layer to 60 nm. Dye rhodamine B (RB) was chosen as probe molecule to test the SERS effect of the synthesized Fe₃O₄\SiO₂\Ag particles. On the synthesized Fe₃O₄\SiO₂\Ag particles, the characteristic Raman bands of RB could be observed when the RB solution was diluted to 5 ppm (1×10⁻⁵ M). Furthermore, the synthesized particles could keep their efficiency till four cycles.

Preparation of poly(methyl methacrylate)/CaCO3/SiO2 composite particles via emulsion polymerization

A novel method to prepare organic/inorganic composite particles, i.e. poly(methyl methacrylate)/CaCO₃/SiO₂ three-component composite particles, using emulsion polymerization of methyl methacrylate with sodium lauryl sulfate as a surfactant in an aqueous medium was reported. CaCO₃/SiO₂ two-component inorganic composite particles were obtained firstly by the reaction between Na₂CO₃ and CaCl₂ in porous silica (submicrometer size) aqueous sol and the specific surface area of the particles was measured by the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method. The results show that the BET specific surface area of the CaCO₃/SiO₂ composite particle is much smaller than that of the silica particle, indicating that CaCO₃ particles were adsorbed by porous silica and that two-component inorganic composite particles were formed. Before copolymerization with methyl methacrylate, the inorganic composite particles were coated with a modifying agent through covalent attachment. The chemical structures of the poly(methyl methacrylate)/CaCO₃/SiO₂ composite particles obtained were characterized by Fourier transform IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The results show that the surface of the modified inorganic particles is grafted by the methyl methacrylate molecules and that the grafting percentage is about 15.2%.     

A facile two-step modifying process for preparation of poly(SStNa)-grafted Fe3O4/SiO2 particles

This article reports the synthesis of the poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate)-grafted Fe₃O₄/SiO₂ particles via two steps. The first step involved magnetite nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄) homogeneously incorporated into silica spheres using the modified Stöber method. Second, the modified silica-coated Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles were covered with the outer shell of anionic polyelectrolyte by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization. The resulted composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive microscopy (EDS), Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and vibration sample magnetometer (VSM). The XRD results indicated that the surface modified Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles did not lead to phase change compared with the pure Fe₃O₄. TEM studies revealed nanoparticles remained monodisperse. The detection of sulfur and sodium signals was a convincing evidence that sodium 4-styrenesulfonate was grafted onto the surface of the magnetic silica in XPS analysis. Finally, super-paramagnetic properties of the composite particles, and the ease of modifying the surfaces may make the composites of important use in mild separation, enzyme immobilization, etc.     

Preparation and characterization of SiO2/TiO2 composite microspheres with microporous SiO2 core/mesoporous TiO2 shell

SiO₂/TiO₂ composite microspheres with microporous SiO₂ core/mesoporous TiO₂ shell structures were prepared by hydrolysis of titanium tetrabutylorthotitanate (TTBT) in the presence of microporous silica microspheres using hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) as a surface esterification agent and porous template, and then dried and calcined at different temperatures. The as-prepared products were characterized with differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetric (DTA/TG), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption. The results showed that composite particles were about 1.8 μm in diameter, and had a spherical morphology and a narrow size distribution. Uniform mesoporous titania coatings on the surfaces of microporous silica microspheres could be obtained by adjusting the HPC concentration to an optimal concentration of about 3.2 mmol L⁻¹. The anatase and rutile phase in the SiO₂/TiO₂ composite microspheres began to form at 700 and 900 °C, respectively. At 700 °C, the specific surface area and pore volume of the SiO₂/TiO₂ composite microspheres were 552 and 0.652 mL g⁻¹, respectively. However, at 900 °C, the specific surface area and pore volume significantly decreased due to the phase transformation from anatase to rutile.

Dispersion stability and rheological behavior of suspensions of polystyrene coated fumed silica particles in polystyrene solutions

Polystyrene coated silica（SiO₂@PS） core-shell composite particles with averaged diameter of about 290 nm were prepared by in situ emulsion polymerization of styrene on the surface ofγ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane grafted SiO₂ nanoparticles of 20-50 nm in diameter.Rheological behavior and dispersion stability of SiO₂@PS suspension in 10 wt%PS solution were compared with suspensions of untreated SiO₂ and silane modified SiO₂ nanoparticles.Suspensions of the untreated and the silane modified SiO₂ exhibited obvious shear thinning.The SiO-2@PS suspension exhibits shear viscosity considerably smaller than suspensions of untreated and silane modified SiO₂ at low shear rates.Transmission electron microscopy showed that the composite particles can uniformly and stably disperse in PS solution compared to other suspensions,implying that the PS shell can effectively enhance the particle compatibility with PS macromolecules in solution.

Synthesis and characterization of well-defined poly(methyl methacrylate)/CaCO3/SiO2 three-component composite particles via reverse atom transfer radical polymerization

The attempt to prepare structurally well-defined polymer/inorganic composite particles, i.e., poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/CaCO₃/SiO₂ three-component composite particles, via reverse atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), using 2-2′-azo-bis-isobutyronitrile as initiator and Cu(II) bromide as catalyst was reported. CaCO₃/SiO₂ two-component composite particles were first obtained through sol–gel method, and their morphology and surface element information were determined by transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, respectively. The results indicate that the CaCO₃ was encapsulated by the obtained SiO₂. After being modified by silane coupling agent, the CaCO₃/SiO₂ composite particles copolymerized with methyl methacrylate (MMA) under standard reverse ATRP conditions to produce PMMA/CaCO₃/SiO₂ three-component composite particles. In the case concerned, first-order kinetic plots and linear increase of molecular weight (Mn) vs conversion and narrow molecular weight distribution for the graft polymer samples were observed. Furthermore, the gel permeation chromatography results illustrated that both the free PMMA chains from the solvent and the graft PMMA chains from the surface of CaCO₃/SiO₂ two-component composite particles were growing at the same rate. Characterizations of the PMMA-grafted CaCO₃/SiO₂ composite particles were done by Fourier transform infrared and thermogravimetric analysis. The results showed that the surface of the modified inorganic particles was grafted by the MMA and that the grafting percentage was about 8.7%.
