Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method of preparing a silica aerogel composite is provided. The method includes providing an aqueous solution comprising a water soluble polymeric binder and a surfactant, adding a silyl-modified silica aerogel to the aqueous solution to form a mixture, and freeze-drying the mixture under reduced pressure at a temperature sufficient to sublime water in the mixture to obtain the silica aerogel composite. A silica aerogel composite is also provided.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of preparing a silica aerogel composite, the method comprising providing an aqueous solution comprising a water soluble polymeric binder and a surfactant, adding a silyl-modified silica aerogel to the aqueous solution to form a mixture, and freeze-drying the mixture under reduced pressure at a temperature sufficient to sublime water in the mixture, thereby physically binding the water soluble polymeric binder to the silyl-modified silica aerogel to obtain the silica aerogel composite. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein providing the aqueous solution comprising a water soluble polymeric binder and a surfactant comprises dissolving the water soluble polymeric binder in an aqueous medium, and adding the surfactant to the aqueous medium comprising the water soluble polymeric binder. 3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein steps a) and b) are carried out under agitation. 4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein amount of water soluble polymeric binder in the aqueous medium is in the range of about 10 wt % to about 50 wt %. 5. The method according to claim 2 , wherein amount of surfactant in the aqueous medium comprising the water soluble polymeric binder is in the range of about 0.01 wt % to about 0.66 wt %. 6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the water soluble polymeric binder comprises at least one of —COOH or —NH 2 functional groups on a surface of the water soluble polymeric binder. 7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the water soluble polymeric binder is gelatin, collagen, polyacrylamide, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polymethacrylamide, polyvinyl alcohol, or combinations thereof. 8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the water soluble polymeric binder comprises or consists of gelatin. 9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the surfactant is an ionic surfactant is an anionic carboxylate, a cationic quaternary ammonium salt, an amphoteric sulfonate, an amphoteric carboxylate, an amphoteric phosphate, or combinations thereof. 10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the surfactant is sodium dodecyl sulfate, cetyl trimethylammonium bromide, perfluorononanoate, lecithin, or combinations thereof. 11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein providing the aqueous solution comprising a water soluble polymeric binder and a surfactant comprises adding carbon nanotubes to the aqueous solution. 12. The method according to claim 11 , wherein amount of carbon nanotubes in the aqueous solution is 0.084 wt % or less. 13. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the silyl-modified silica aerogel comprises one or more —SiR 3 functional groups, wherein R at each occurrence is independently a C 1 -C 5 alkyl group. 14. The method according to claim 13 , wherein R is —CH 3 . 15. The method according to claim 1 , wherein size of the silyl-modified silica aerogel is in the range of about 0.05 cm to about 0.5 cm. 16. The method according to claim 1 , wherein freeze-drying the mixture is carried out at a temperature in the range of about −50° C. to about 0° C.
