Viscosity is one of the most important properties of colloids in mixing, transportation, stabilization, energy consumption, and so on. According to Einstein‘s viscosity equation, the viscosity of a colloidal dispersion increases with the increase of particle concentration. And the equation can be applicable to all micro-particle dispersions, because the effect of solvation films coated on particles can be neglectable in that case. But with the decrease of particle size to nano-scale, the formation of solvation films on nano-particles can greatly affect the viscosity of a dispersion, and Einstein‘s equation may not be applicable to this case. In this work, one kind of micro-size silica particle and two kinds of nano-size silica particles were used to investigate the effect of solvation films on dispersion viscosity, dispersed in water and ethyl alcohol solvents, respectively. The results of theoretical calculation and experimental investigation show that the increase of viscosity is contributed from solvation films by more than 95 percent for nano-particle dispersions, while less than 10 percent for micro-particle dispersions. 相似文献

We demonstrate the design, fabrication, and operation of microfluidic chemical reactors for the synthesis of colloidal silica particles. Two reactor configurations are examined: laminar flow reactors and segmented flow reactors. We analyze particle sizes and size distributions and examine their change with varying linear flow velocity and mean residence time. Laminar flow reactors are affected by axial dispersion at high linear velocities, thus leading to wide particle size distributions under these conditions. Gas is used to create a segmented flow, consisting liquid plugs separated by inert gas bubbles. The internal recirculation created in the liquid plugs generates mixing, which eliminates the axial dispersion effects associated with laminar flow reactors and produces a narrow size distribution of silica nanoparticles. 相似文献

Factors controlling the formation and stability of air bubbles stabilized by partially hydrophobic silica nanoparticles 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Air bubbles have been formed using partially hydrophobic silica nanoparticles as the stabilizer. The particles were of primary particle size 20 nm, chemically treated to different degrees with dichlorodimethylsilane to render them partially hydrophobic. Above a certain bubble size range (typically 80-microm diameter), the bubbles seemed to be almost indefinitely stable, while for any size above 20 microm their stability against disproportionation is far better than bubbles stabilized by any protein film investigated in previous studies. A possible theoretical justification for this observation is presented. Bubbles could be formed by shaking water with the particles, but a much higher volume fraction of bubbles was obtained by pressurizing the aqueous phase to 5 atm overnight followed by suddenly releasing the pressure to nucleate bubbles within the silica dispersion. Sonicating the silica dispersion before nucleation also gave more bubbles, which were also found to be more stable. There appeared to be an optimum degree of surface hydrophobicity that gave maximum foamability and foam stability, where around 20-33% of the silanol groups on the silica surface had been converted to dimethylsilane groups. However, a sharp increase in stability occurred when between 1.8 and 2 mol dm(-3) NaCl was also included in the aqueous phase. The change in stability due to inclusion of salt can be rationalized in terms of changes occurring in the value of the particle contact angle. The effects of increasing sonication and an optimum surface chemical treatment can be explained by the need to make the particles sufficiently hydrophobic so that they adsorb strongly enough, while at the same time minimizing their tendency to aggregate in the bulk aqueous phase, which hinders their adsorption. Furthermore, confocal laser scanning microscopy of the bubble dispersions suggests that a large volume fraction of stable bubbles is only formed when the particles adsorbed to the bubbles are also part of a spanning silica particle network in the bulk aqueous solution, forming a weak gel with a finite yield stress. 相似文献

The rheological properties of particles suspended in a non‐polar mineral oil have been investigated as a function of volume fraction of particles, particle size, surface properties and shear rate. Three different types of particles were investigated; glass microspheres, monodisperse silica particles and fumed silica. The suspensions showed shear thinning behavior at higher volume fractions, and the viscosity increased with decreasing particle size. The hydrophobic particles display lass shear thinning effects. The relative viscosity of all the suspensions was well fitted to the Krieger and Dougherty model. 相似文献

The influences of carrier particle sizes of Cu/SiO2 catalysts for hydrogenolysis of glycerol were studied use mono-dispersed silica as models. Catalysts were prepared by precipitation method with the average size of the mono-dispersed silica supports varying of 10, 20, and 90 nm. Characterization of the catalysts show that the physical properties such as pore volume and BET surface area of the catalysts were largely affected by the carrier particle size of silica. However, the copper dispersion of the three samples were similar. XPS patterns show a difference in the chemical states of copper species, small carrier particle size induced formation of copper phyllosilicate, which benefits on the stability of copper species in reaction. The overall activity in the reaction of glycerol hydrogenolysis shows a correlation with the carrier particle size. The small carrier particles prevent the copper species from aggregation thus such catalysts exhibit good catalytic activity and stability. 相似文献

Summary The pore structure of silica supports (SiO2 or MCM-41) has little influence on the metal-support interaction in silica supported cobalt catalysts. Cobalt dispersion, reduction behavior, and catalytic properties for the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis were primarily affected by the metal particle size. 相似文献

Coatings based on sol-gel technology with different types of nanoparticles embedded into the sol-gel matrix were fabricated, and the resulting properties were investigated. Pyrogenic silica nanoparticles were added to the sol before coating. The silica particles varied in primary particle size and agglomerate size, and in their surface modification. The particles were wetted in ethanol and dispersed to certain finenesses. The difference in agglomerate size was partly caused by varying particle types, but also by the dispersing processes that were applied to the particles. The resulting coatings were examined by visual appearance and SEM microscopy. Furthermore, their micromechanical properties were determined by nanoindentation. The results show an important influence from the added nanoparticles and their properties on the visual appearance as well as the micromechanical behavior of the sol-gel coatings. It is shown that, in fact, the particle size distribution can have a major impact on the coating properties as well as the surface modification. 相似文献

Influence of surfactant surface coverage and aging time on physical properties of silica nanoparticles 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The experimental results on the influence of surfactant surface coverage and aging time on physical properties of silica nanoparticles were reported. The spherical silica nanoparticles have been synthesized using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as the surfactant and oil shale ash (OSA) as a new silica source. In order to identify the optimal condition for producing the best quality silica nanoparticles with the good dispersion and uniformity, the effects of surfactant surface coverage and aging time were investigated. It was found that the particle size and distribution of silica nanoparticles depend on the concentration of PEG in dispersion. At relatively low concentration, 0–2 wt.%, the existing PEG is not sufficient to prevent further growth of the initially formed silica nanoparticles, leading to large aggregates of silica particles. When the PEG concentration increases to 3 wt.%, self-assembled PEG layer on the surface stabilizes the initially formed silica nanoparticles and the silica particles with average diameter of 10 nm are uniformly distributed. With further increasing the concentration of PEG, the number of PEG aggregates increases and silica nanoparticles are mainly formed inside the entangled PEG chains, resulting in an observation of clusters of silica nanoparticles. Moreover, it was found that as the aging time increased, the shape of silica nanoparticles becomes regular and the particle size distribution becomes narrow. 相似文献

Two types of Pd nanoparticle catalysts were prepared having 2–4 nm particle size using silica gel and porous polymer beads as solid supports. 2‐Pyridinecarboxaldehyde ligand was anchored on commercially available 3‐aminopropyl‐functionalized silica gel followed by Pd metal dispersion. Bead‐shaped cross‐linked poly(4‐vinylpyridine‐co‐styrene) gel was prepared by an emulsifier‐free emulsion polymerization of 4‐vinylpyridine, styrene and divinylbenzene in the presence of ammonium persulfate and subsequently dispersing the Pd metal on the synthesized polymer. These catalysts were characterized by SEM, TEM and ICP techiniques with respect to appearance, size and possible leaching out, respectively. Furthermore, the reactivity of these catalysts was tested on hydrogenation of various α,β‐unsaturated carbonyl compounds using aqueous solvent under a hydrogen balloon (1 atm). The results showed that the Pd dispersed on silica was a more efficient catalyst than Pd dispersed on polymer and the former could be recycled more than 10 times without considerable loss in activity.

Monolithic capillary columns have been prepared in fused‐silica capillaries by radical co‐polymerization of ethylene dimethacrylate and butyl methacrylate in the presence of porogen solvent mixtures containing various concentration ratios of 1‐propanol, 1,4‐butanediol, and water with azobisisobutyronitrile as the initiator of the polymerization reaction. The through pores in organic polymer monolithic columns can be characterized by “equivalent permeability particle size”, and the mesopores with stagnant mobile phase by “equivalent dispersion particle size”. Increasing the concentration of propanol in the polymerization mixture diminishes the pore volume and size in the monolithic media and improves the column efficiency, at a cost of decreasing permeability. Organic polymer monolithic capillary columns show similar retention behaviour to packed alkyl silica columns for compounds with different polarities characterized by interaction indices, Ix, but have different methylene selectivities. Higher concentrations of propanol in the polymerization mixture increase the lipophilic character of the monolithic stationary phases. Best efficiencies and separation selectivities were found for monolithic columns prepared using 62–64% propanol in the porogen solvent mixture. To allow accurate characterization of the properties of capillary monolithic columns, the experimental data should be corrected for extra‐column contributions. 相似文献

Commercial-grade fumed silica was dispersed by mechanical shearing and/or ultrasonic force to produce dispersed silica particles with different sizes. The light-scattering technique and a diagrammatic method of extrapolation used to eliminate the influence of particle interaction were applied to determine the size of the particles. Then, the effect of particle size on the gelation of fumed silica in sulphuric acid medium, as well as some electrochemical properties, such as ion transfer and redox capacities of lead, in the gelled electrolyte were examined. The results showed that the size of dispersed particles affected the gelation of fumed silica itself: with increasing size, the thixotropy of the system increased and the gelling time decreased, particularly for those particles obtained only by simple stirring. The strength of the gel increased with increasing particle size. At an identical silica content, the increase in particle size led to a decrease in the density of the particles: this weakened the three-dimensional structure of the silica particle network and reduced the efficiency of ion transfer. However, the effect of silica particle size on the redox capacities of lead was negligible. 相似文献

Hollow poly(styrene–divinylbenzene) (P(S-DVB)) microspheres were fabricated via template-based method including synthesis of silica particles by sol-gel method, preparation of silica/P(S-DVB) particles by dispersion polymerization and chemical etching of silica cores by NaOH solution. TEM, FTIR and TG analyses confirmed that the hollow P(S-DVB) microspheres were successfully obtained. The morphology of hollow P(S-DVB) microspheres could be controlled by adjusting the amounts of DVB, AIBN and VTES, and the round-ball-like hollow P(S-DVB) microspheres were fabricated when the amount of DVB, AIBN and VTES was 30.0?wt%, 5.0?wt% and 30.0?vol% respectively. Both the size of silica particles and amount of monomers were regarded as the two key factors to control the particle size of the round-ball-like hollow P(S-DVB) microspheres. 相似文献

Many types of colloidal particles possess a core-shell morphology. In this Article, we show that, if the core and shell densities differ, this morphology leads to an inherent density distribution for particles of finite polydispersity. If the shell is denser than the core, this density distribution implies an artificial narrowing of the particle size distribution as determined by disk centrifuge photosedimentometry (DCP). In the specific case of polystyrene/silica nanocomposite particles, which consist of a polystyrene core coated with a monolayer shell of silica nanoparticles, we demonstrate that the particle density distribution can be determined by analytical ultracentrifugation and introduce a mathematical method to account for this density distribution by reanalyzing the raw DCP data. Using the mean silica packing density calculated from small-angle X-ray scattering, the real particle density can be calculated for each data point. The corrected DCP particle size distribution is both broader and more consistent with particle size distributions reported for the same polystyrene/silica nanocomposite sample using other sizing techniques, such as electron microscopy, laser light diffraction, and dynamic light scattering. Artifactual narrowing of the size distribution is also likely to occur for many other polymer/inorganic nanocomposite particles comprising a low-density core of variable dimensions coated with a high-density shell of constant thickness, or for core-shell latexes where the shell is continuous rather than particulate in nature. 相似文献

A novel high surface area heterogeneous catalyst based on solution phase colloidal nanoparticle chemistry has been developed. Monodisperse platinum nanoparticles of 1.7-7.1 nm have been synthesized by alcohol reduction methods and incorporated into mesoporous SBA-15 silica during hydrothermal synthesis. Characterization of the Pt/SBA-15 catalysts suggests that Pt particles are located within the surfactant micelles during silica formation leading to their dispersion throughout the silica structure. After removal of the templating polymer from the nanoparticle surface, Pt particle sizes were determined from monolayer gas adsorption measurements. Infrared studies of CO adsorption revealed that CO exclusively adsorbs to atop sites and red-shifts as the particle size decreases suggesting surface roughness increases with decreasing particle size. Ethylene hydrogenation rates were invariant with particle size and consistent with a clean Pt surface. Ethane hydrogenolysis displayed significant structure sensitivity over the size range of 1-7 nm, while the apparent activation energy increased linearly up to a Pt particle size of approximately 4 nm and then remained constant. The observed rate dependence with particle size is attributed to a higher reactivity of coordinatively unsaturated surface atoms in small particles compared to low-index surface atoms prevalent in large particles. The most reactive of these unsaturated surface atoms are responsible for ethane decomposition to surface carbon. The ability to design catalytic structures with tunable properties by rational synthetic methods is a major advance in the field of catalyst synthesis and for the development of accurate structure-function relationships in heterogeneous reaction kinetics. 相似文献

This paper presents a novel and facile method for the fabrication of nanocomposite films with ordered porous surface structures. In this approach, a water-borne poly(styrene-co-butyl acrylate-co-acrylic acid)/silica nanocomposite dispersion was synthesized in situ by surfactant-free emulsion polymerization by using 3-allyloxy-2-hydroxy-1-propanesulfonate as a polymerizable surfactant. When this dispersion was dried to form a film at a certain temperature, an ordered porous structure could be directly obtained on the surface of the nanocomposite film. SEM, TEM, and AFM were employed to observe the morphology, and XPS and particle analyzer were used to analyze the surface composition of the ordered porous nanocomposite film and the particle size, respectively. 相似文献

Following a previous work (Bourgeat-Lami, E., and Lang, J.,J. Colloid Interface Sci.197, 293 (1998)), encapsulation of silica beads has been achieved by dispersion polymerization of styrene in an aqueous ethanol medium using poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) as stabilizer. Silica beads, prepared according to the Stöber method, were coated prior to polymerization by grafting 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate onto the surface. A great number of silica beads per composite particle were previously found using beads that had diameters between 49 and 120 nm. In the present work, larger silica beads with diameters between 191 and 629 nm are investigated. We demonstrate by transmission electron microscopy that, consequently, only a small number of silica beads are contained in the composite particles. By counting the composite particles containing precisely zero, one, two, three, four, and more than four silica beads, it clearly appears that the encapsulation of only one silica bead can be obtained simply by increasing the size of the beads. Under our experimental conditions, the optimal bead diameter for achieving composite particles containing only one silica bead turns out to be around 450 nm. We show that increasing the silica bead size above this value results in an increased number of composite particles without silica beads. In contrast, the number of composite particles with two, three, four, or more than four silica beads increases with decreasing silica bead size. In addition to the above variations in composition of the composite particles, changes in particle shapes were also observed as a function of the size of the silica beads and the styrene concentration in the polymerization medium. Hypotheses concerning these variations are presented. 相似文献
