Problems solved by technology

However, this invention has disadvantages in that, since the preparation method essentially requires long-term solvent replacement and surface modification processes, spherical silica airgel powder is very expensive due to low productivity, and due to the use of ion exchange resin , so it is not suitable for mass production
[0009] The most difficult challenges in the preparation of silica airgel powders from water glass solutions include: deterioration of productivity due to long solvent replacement and surface modification processes; difficulty in obtaining powders with uniform spherical shape, etc.

preparation example Construction

[0037] The invention provides a method for preparing spherical silica airgel particles, comprising:

[0038] a) water glass solution is mixed with solvent to prepare mixed solution;

[0039] b) adding a surfactant to the mixed solution;

[0040] c) adding a neutralizing agent to the mixed solution to form a silica sol;

[0041] d) adding a gelling agent to the silica sol to form a silica gel;

[0042] e) solvent displacement the silica gel and adding a surface modifier to the silica gel to hydrophobize the silica gel; and

[0043] f) Drying of the hydrophobized silica gel.

[0044] First, the present invention includes step a): mixing a water glass solution with a solvent to prepare a mixed solution.

[0045] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, water glass can be made of Na 2 O nSiO 2 (n=2 to 4) and a small amount of Fe 2 o 3 Composition, and the concentration can be 28% by weight to 30% by weight.

Embodiment 1

[0089] Water glass (sodium silicate available from Young Il Chemical Co., Ltd.; silica content: 28% by weight to 30% by weight, SiO 2 :Na 2 O=3.52:1) to prepare SiO 2 A water glass solution with a content of 7.5% by weight. After that, the water glass solution was mixed with hexane at a volume ratio of 1:1 to prepare a mixed solution. As a surfactant, sorbitan monooleate (SPAN 80) was added to the mixed solution at a volume ratio of 5%. Subsequently, with respect to the mixed solution, acetic acid as a neutralizing agent was added at a volume ratio of 10%, and isopropanol as a gelling agent was added at a volume ratio of 1:2 (mixed solution:gelling agent) to prepare di silica gel. After solvents other than the gelled silica were removed, ethanol was added for solvent replacement, and HMDS as a surface modifier was added at a volume ratio of 17% to the mixed solution, stirred, and then kept for about one hour. The obtained airgel was washed with ethanol and then dried in a...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for preparing a spherical silica aerogel granule, and a spherical silica aerogel granule prepared thereby. The present invention can provide: a method for preparing a spherical silica aerogel granule, which is suitable for mass production since droplets of a water glass solution are uniformly dispersed, by using a surfactant in a specific step, in a uniform size in a nonaqueous solvent so as to reduce processing time, thereby increasing productivity; and a spherical silica aerogel granule having a uniform size, and excellent workability and flowabilitycan be provided by the preparation method.
