Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to hydrophobic aerogels and methods of making hydrophobic aerogels.
  • the methods of the present disclosure include combining a hydrophobizing agent with an aerogel precursor prior to gelation rather than adding a hydrophobizing agent to an existing gel.
  • Aerogels are a unique class of ultra-low-density, highly porous materials. The high porosity, intrinsic pore structure, and low density make aerogels extremely valuable materials for a variety of applications including insulation. Low density aerogels based upon silica are excellent insulators as the very small convoluted pores minimize conduction and convection. In addition, infrared radiation (IR) suppressing dopants may easily be dispersed throughout the aerogel matrix to reduce radiative heat transfer.
  • IR infrared radiation
  • Aerogels tend to be very hygroscopic due to the presence of hydroxyl groups on the surface. Unmodified aerogels absorb water and other organic solvents adversely affecting desired properties (e.g., surface area, porosity, and density) thereby degrading performance (e.g., thermal insulation). However, many applications of aerogels require exposure to water or atmospheric moisture. Therefore, methods are needed to prepare aerogels having hydrophobicity at ambient conditions as well as over a range of temperature and pressure conditions.
  • FIG. 1 is an SEM image of the aerogel of Example 25.
  • FIG. 2 is an SEM image of the hydrophobic aerogel of Example 27.
  • the present disclosure provides methods of preparing a hydrophobic aerogel. Such methods comprise forming a surface-modified metal oxide gel from a sol comprising a solvent, a metal oxide precursor, and a hydrophobic surface modifying agent; and drying the gel to form the hydrophobic aerogel.
  • the methods further comprise solvent-exchanging the hydrophobic, aerogel precursor with an alkyl alcohol to form a hydrophobic alcogel. In some embodiments, the methods further comprise supercritically drying the alcogel to form the hydrophobic aerogel.

  • the second process is a waterglass-based synthesis route that typically yields powders, beads, or granules.
  • a typical method for making aerogels hydrophobic involves first making a gel. Subsequently, this preformed gel is soaked in a bath containing a mixture of solvent and the desired hydrophobizing agent in a process often referred to as surface derivatization.
  • a gel having the skeleton structure of (SiO 2 ) n was obtained by hydrolyzing and condensing an alkoxysilane. This gel was subsequently hydrophobized by soaking it in a solution of a hydrophobizing agent dissolved in solvent.
  • hydrophobizing agents typically cannot be added prior to gelation because such agents inhibit, alter, or completely prevent gelation.
  • the methods of the present disclosure allow for the hydrophobizing agent to be included prior to gelation without significantly affecting gel times.
  • the hydrophobizing agent provides a catalyst for gelation.
  • the methods of the present disclosure begin with a sol comprising a solvent, a metal oxide precursor, and a hydrophobic surface modifying agent.

  • Aerogel cylinders were synthesized within plastic syringes with one end cut off. Once gelled, the aerogel cylinder was extracted from the syringe using the syringe plunger and dried. The diameter and length of the dried cylinders were measured and the volume calculated. The weights of the samples were measured on an analytical balance. The bulk density was then calculated from the ratio of weight to volume.

  • the instrument contains a calibrated volume cell internal to the instrument.
  • the sample was placed in a sample cup, weighed and inserted into the instrument.
  • the sample was pressurized in the instrument to a known initial pressure.
  • the pressure was bypassed into the calibrated cell of the instrument and a second pressure recorded. Using the initial pressure, the second pressure, and the volume of the calibrated cell, the skeletal volume of the sample was determined.
  • the skeletal density was then determined from the skeletal volume and the sample weight.
  • the percent porosity was calculated from the measured bulk density ( ⁇ bulk ) and the and skeletal density ( ⁇ skeletal ) using the following formula:
  • porosity ⁇ ( % ) ( 1 - ( ⁇ bulk ⁇ skeletal ) ) ⁇ 100
  • Thermal Conductivity was measured at a mean temperature of 12.5° C. using a LASERCOMP “Fox200” instrument.
  • the sample was weighed and placed in a permeable cloth bag sealed with a draw string.
  • the bag containing the sample was placed inside a stainless steel chamber.
  • the bottom and top of this chamber were fitted with metal frits and O-rings.
  • This chamber was inserted into a vessel rated to handle high pressure (40 MPa (6000 psig)). The outside of this vessel was heated by a jacket.
  • Carbon dioxide was chilled to less than minus 10 degrees Celsius and pumped with a piston pump at a nominal flow rate of one liter per minute through the bottom of the unit. After ten minutes, the temperature of the unit was raised to 40° C. at a pressure of 10.3 MPa (1500 psig). The carbon dioxide is supercritical at these conditions. The drying period was conducted for a minimum of seven hours. After the drying period, the carbon dioxide flow was ceased and the pressure was slowly decreased by venting the carbon dioxide. When the pressure was at 370 kPa (40 psig) or lower, the now dry samples were removed and weighed.
  • a stock solution was prepared by mixing 209.39 grams of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS, 99+%) (Alfa Aesar) with 234.95 grams of ethanol (EtOH, 200 proof) (Aaper Alcohol), 54.09 grams of deionized water (H2O) and 0.701 grams of 1 Molar hydrochloric acid (1M HCl) (J. T. Baker) in a round bottom flask fitted with water cooled reflux condenser. The mixture was heated to 70° C. for 1 hour under constant stirring.

  • 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexamethyldisilazane was used as a silylating/surface modifying agent to render the silica gel hydrophobic.
  • silylating agent here performs the dual role of modifying the surface and providing ammonia upon reaction with water, which acts as a catalyst for the hydrolysis and condensation of the silica precursor.
  • Example 1 gelled but was not hydrophobic indicating insufficient surface treatment.
  • Examples 2-4 gelled in less than one minute and were hydrophobic. In the case of Example 5, even though gelation occurred in less than one minute, the gel quality was poor and hence the sample could not be supercritically dried.
  • Example 6 did not gel.
  • Examples 1-5 are shown in Table 2.
  • the surface areas and densities of Examples 2-4 are typical of aerogels. These examples clearly demonstrate a process by which silica aerogels can be prepared in the presence of surface modifying agents in a time efficient manner when an appropriate amount of HMDZ is used for surface modification.
  • Examples 7-14 were prepared in a manner similar to Examples 1-6 except that the H2O/TEOS and EtOH/TEOS molar ratios were varied. Table 3 shows that the gel time trends for Examples 7-14 are similar to those for Examples 1-6. Examples 8 and 12 did not gel. Example 9 was not hydrophobic due to insufficient surface treatment, while Examples 7, 10, 11, 13, and 14 were hydrophobic. As summarized in Table 4, Examples 11 and 13 exhibited characteristic aerogel surface areas and densities.

  • Examples 18-20 did not gel even after several days (samples were observed for a period of two weeks).
  • Higher HMDZ/TEOS ratios >0.5 resulted in no gelation or very long gel times.

  • Example 25 Characteristics of the aerogels of Examples 25-29 are summarized in Table 8. The surface areas and densities are characteristic of TMOS-based aerogels. Example 25 was not hydrophobic and had a low HMDZ/TMOS molar ratio, which is consistent with results for TEOS-based aerogels. Examples 26-29 were all hydrophobic.

T. Baker) in a glass jar. The mixture was heated at 50° C. for 15 minutes under constant stirring. While vigorously stirring, different amounts of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexamethyldisilazane (HMDZ, 99+%) (Alfa Aesar) were added to the mixture.
