Synthesis of Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Particles by Sol-Gel Chemistry

Surface properties of submicrometer silica spheres modified with aminopropyltriethoxysilane and phenyltriethoxysilane

“…Two protocols have been made available throughout the literature for the fabrication of the surface-modified spherical silica particles: (i) silanation of pure silica spheres with silanecoupling agents by refluxing in toluene (two-step method) [6]; (ii) preparation of organic/inorganic hybrid particles using organosilane precursors (one-step method) [3,[7][8][9][10]. In the first method, water should be thoroughly removed before the surface modification step during which a poisonous solvent, i.e., toluene, is used.…”

Corrosion Protection Systems and Fatigue Corrosion in Offshore Wind Structures: Current Status and Future Perspectives

“…In the last few decades, several types of organic-based coatings have been developed [85], including anti-fouling paints [70,[86][87][88][89][90][91][92][93][94], composites and nano-coatings [94][95][96], self-healing coatings [97][98][99][100][101][102][103][104][105][106][107], and hybrid sol-gel materials [98,[108][109][110][111][112][113][114][115][116][117][118][119][120][121] among others. However, as far as the authors' knowledge, very few studies were performed on OWSs using self-healing and hybrid sol-gel coatings.…”

Extremely Low Temperature Crystallization in the A2M3O12 Family of Negative Thermal Expansion Materials

“…The potential of NHSG chemistry can be seen in reports of the controlled synthesis of three different polymorphs of titania, low-temperature crystallization of aluminum and zirconium titanate, and organic-inorganic hybrid materials. [22,[29][30][31][32] Several materials in the A 2 M 3 O 12 family have also been prepared by NHSG chemistry. This includes previously known stable compositions (A = Al, In, Sc, Y, Fe; M = Mo, W), as well as metastable Ga 2 Mo 3 O 12 , [33] which cannot be obtained by other routes at all, and new polymorphs like Pba2-Y 2 Mo 3 O 12 .…”
