preparation example Construction

[0022] Therefore, the present invention provides a method for preparing a hydrophobic airgel precursor, the preparation method comprising: preparing an alkoxysilane compound or a prehydrolyzed alkoxysilane compound; and adding a linear silane crosslinking agent to make the Alkoxysilane compounds or prehydrolyzed alkoxysilane compounds are polymerized wherein the linear silane crosslinker comprises units derived from PEG.

[0023] Hereinafter, the preparation method of the hydrophobic airgel precursor will be described in detail.

[0024] In the method for producing a hydrophobic airgel precursor of the present invention, an alkoxysilane compound or an alkoxysilane compound obtained by prehydrolyzing an alkoxysilane compound can be used as an airgel precursor.

[0025] Specifically, the alkoxysilane compound that can be used in the present invention can be selected from tetramethylorthosilicate (TMOS), tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), methyltriethylorthosilicate, orthosilicate ...

preparation Embodiment 1

[0061] Preparation Example 1: Preparation of prehydrolyzed alkoxysilane compound (alkoxydisiloxane prepolymer)

[0062] 150 g of TEOS, 51 g of ethanol, and 0.04 g of 35% aqueous HCl were added to a 500 mL reactor, and then stirred while raising the reaction temperature to 70°C. While the reaction temperature was kept at 70° C., 19.4 g of acidified distilled water containing 0.02 g of 35% aqueous hydrochloric acid solution was slowly added dropwise to the reactor over 1 hour, and then reacted for 8 hours.

[0063] After the reaction, the temperature of the reactor was cooled to room temperature. The cooled reactant was filtered using a filter under reduced pressure to remove impurities, thereby preparing a 75% hydrolyzed ethoxydisiloxane-based prepolymer (prehydrolyzed TEOS).

[0066]

[0067] 19.79 g of isocyanate silane (KBE-9007, ShinEtsu Co., Japan), 12.80 g of polyethylene glycol PEG-400 (Korea, Deoksan Pure Chemicals Co., n=8.2 to 9.1) were added to a 1000 mL flask, and then 0.57 g of dibutyltin dilaurate (DBTDL) was added to make it 3 mole % relative to KBE-9007, and diluted with 300 g of tetrahydrofuran (THF) at room temperature to prepare a unit containing polyethylene glycol (PEG) linear silane crosslinkers. The mixture was stirred at room temperature until complete consumption of reactants was confirmed by thin layer chromatography (TLC), and then reduced pressure to remove all reaction solvents. Afterwards, under the developer solution condition of dichloromethane:methanol=30:1, 28 g of a liquid product with a purity of 95% or more was obtained by column chromatography, and the yiel...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a hydrophobic silica aerogel precursor and a hydrophobic silica aerogel produced by using the same. According to the present invention, when producing a hydrophobic aerogel precursor, a linear silane crosslinking agent containing a PEG-derived unit is introduced, and thus it is possible to produce a hydrophobic silica aerogel having improved high-temperature thermal stability and mechanical properties.

Description

technical field [0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2017-0167918 filed in the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Dec. 08, 2017, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The invention relates to a hydrophobic airgel precursor and an airgel prepared by using the hydrophobic airgel precursor. Background technique [0004] Airgel is a material with a porous structure, in which SiO 2 The nanostructures are entwined like a non-woven fabric so that air occupies 98% of the total volume. Aerogels have high porosity, pores in the range of 1 nm to 50 nm, high specific surface area, and super insulating and low dielectric properties, so they are used as inorganic insulating materials. Recently, prehydrolyzed TEOS based on tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was used as a precursor of airgel in order to increase the uniform poro...
