Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method for silicon dioxide aerogel. The method includes the following steps: (1) under the acidic condition that pH is equal to 3 to 5, stirring silicon tetrachloride and water for reaction, then adding ammonia water to regulate pH to 8 to 10, adding water and ethanol, and after hydrolytic polycondensation reaction, forming alcogel; (2) carrying out extraction, and removing water / alcohol mixture contained in the alcogel; taking gel solution, adding anhydrous methanol or ethanol, and replacing the water / alcohol mixture in gel pores with the anhydrous methanol or ethanol; (3) adding trimethyl chlorosilane and alkane to alkylate Si-OH on the surface of the gel skeleton, and after drying under the normal pressure, the SiO2 aerogel is produced. The invention has the following advantages that: (1) since the silicon tetrachloride as byproduct produced in a large amount by the organosilicon industry is used as raw material, the material cost in the process of production is greatly reduced; (2) compared with the conventional supercritical drying, the adopted normal-temperature drying can greatly reduce conditions needed by reaction; and (3) the invention cannot destroy the nanopore structure of the SiO2 aerogel, and can stably increase the reaction speed at the same time.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of silicon dioxide airgel, specifically a kind of use silicon tetrachloride as starting material, use organic solvent to alkylate the Si-OH on the surface of the gel skeleton, and then dry it so that Process for preparing silica aerogels. Background technique [0002] Silica aerogel has the characteristics of low density, large specific surface area, and high porosity, and is a new type of lightweight nanoporous material with broad prospects. Making full use of the excellent properties of aerogels, realizing the low cost of raw materials and the simplicity, safety and low cost of the preparation process, so that it can be mass-produced is the current research hotspot. [0003] In recent years, research on silica aerogels has mainly focused on BASF and BESY in Germany, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratory in the United States, ...
