Effect of Modified Silica Fume Using MPTMS for the Enhanced EPDM Foam Insulation

Abstract: Silica fume (SF) is a by-product from the production of silicon metal, which has a relatively high silica concentration. The surface modified silica fume (mSF) is treated with (3-mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane (MPTMS) as filler in ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) foam. The FTIR spectra of mSF clearly indicated that MPTMS can be successfully bonded to the SF surface. The reinforcing efficiency of mSF-filled EPDM foam insulation indicated that the mechanical properties such as hardness, tensile strength… Show more

“…In the case of the glass platforms silanized with thiol alkyl silanes (Figure 2) and decorated with AgNPs (Figure 4), the presence of the same bands characteristic of each functional group related to the glass samples silanized with MPTMS and MPTES can be observed. Thus, in the case of the glass platforms silanized with AgNPs@MPTMS (1, 3, and 5%), as well as those silanized with AgNPs@MPTES (1, 3, and 5%), the FTIR maps show visible similarities, which proves the good homogeneity of the samples/functionalization of the glass platforms [27,31,32]. AgNPs@MPTMS 3%, (c) AgNPs@MPTMS 5%, (d) AgNPs@MPTES 1%, (e) AgNPs@MPTES 3%, and (f) AgNPs@MPTES 5%; in all cases, the scanned surfaces were of 1400 µm × 1400 µm.…”

“…In the next step, 5 g of silica particles were added to the solution and the particles were mixed with the resulting solution for 30 min again by a mechanical stirrer. Finally, the resulting mixture was placed in a vacuum oven at 100°C for 24 h. It should be noted that SF modified by this method was used to make composite samples 22,23 …”
