Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing super-hydrophobic silica aerogel by atmospheric pressure drying. The method comprises the following steps: 1) preparing sol; 2) gelatinizing the sol; 3)aging gel; 4) exchanging a gel solvent; 5) carrying out surface hydrophobic modification; and 6) carrying out drying under atmospheric pressure. According to the preparation method of the silica aerogel, provided by the invention, tetraethoxysilane is used as a silicon source, ethanol is used as a solvent, acid and alkali are used as catalysts, and trimethylchlorosilane is used as a surface modifier, so that super-hydrophobic silica aerogel is prepared by atmospheric pressure drying. The prepared SiO2 aerogel with a super-hydrophobic three-dimensional network structure is tested to have a highspecific surface area, low density and good hydrophobicity at a room temperature. Therefore, the silica aerogel prepared through the method provided by the invention has excellent adsorption performance and has a good application prospect in the field of energy conservation. The preparation method of the silica aerogel under atmospheric pressure, provided by the invention, is simple in procedureand low in equipment requirements, can also shorten the process flow and reduce the cost, and is easy to industrialize.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of silica airgel preparation, and in particular relates to a normal-pressure preparation method of silica airgel. Background technique [0002] Silica airgel is a nanoporous material with a three-dimensional network structure, known as "blue smoke", and more than 96% of its composition is gas, which is currently the lightest solid in the world. This special structure makes it have high porosity (85-95%, up to 99.8%), small pore size (1-100nm), high specific surface area (1000m 2 / g), low density (0.03-0.2g / cm 3 ), small refractive index (1.01-11), low sound velocity (100m / s), ultra-low thermal conductivity 0.015W / (m·K) and other properties. Because of its unique properties, it has broad application prospects in the fields of aerospace, construction, medicine and catalysts. [0003] Silica airgel is generally prepared by supercritical drying, which has good molding effect and can maintain a complete three-...
