Abstract

The present invention discloses a preparation method for hydrophobic silica aerogel with industrial waterglass as a raw material, which comprises the following steps: diluting the industrial waterglass with water; neutralizing with an acid to obtain hydrosol; allowing the hydrosol to stand and age for 8-48 hours at normal temperature so as to form hydrogel; replacing the water in the hydrogel with anhydrous ethanol; allowing the hydrogel to react with organosilane compounds; performing surface modification and simultaneous solvent exchange with n-hexane; suction-filtering; washing; allowing to stand at normal temperature to obtain white hydrophobic silica aerogel powder. The preparation method has simple process and low cost, and the prepared aerogel has porous network-like structure which features a low density and a high specific surface area.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing hydrophobic silica airgel, which belongs to the technical field of inorganic porous materials. Background technique [0002] SiO 2 Airgel is a new type of lightweight nanoporous material, which has the characteristics of low density, large specific surface area, and high porosity. It is a new type of nanomaterial with broad application prospects. SiO 2 Airgel has a variety of unique properties, such as low refractive index, low elastic modulus, low acoustic impedance, low thermal conductivity, strong adsorption, typical fractal structure, etc., can be made into acoustic impedance coupling materials, filter Materials, high-temperature insulation materials and other high-performance materials have broad application prospects. [0003] People first used supercritical drying to prepare aerogels because it can maintain the nanoporous structure of aerogels. However, the instruments and equipment required fo...
