Tube structure with sol-gel zirconia coating

The subject invention concerns zirconia-based hybrid organic-inorganic sol-gel coating for optional use as a stationary phase in capillary microextraction (CME), gas chromatographic (GC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), capillary electrophoresis (CE), capillary electrochromatography (CEC) and related analytical techniques. Sol-gel chemistry is employed to chemically bind a hydroxy-terminated silicone polymer (polydimethyldiphenylsiloxane, PDMDPS) to a sol-gel zirconia network. In one embodiment, a fused silica capillary is filled with a properly designed sol solution to allow for the sol-gel reactions to take place within the capillary. In the course of this process, a layer of the evolving hybrid organic-inorganic sol-gel polymer becomes chemically bonded to the silanol groups on the inner capillary walls. The unbonded part of the sol solution is expelled from the capillary under helium pressure, leaving behind a chemically bonded sol-gel zirconia —PDMDPS coating on the inner walls of the capillary. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, ketones, and aldehydes are efficiently extracted and preconcentrated from dilute aqueous samples followed by GC separation of the extracted analytes.

Pigmented organometallic sol

A surface treatment, especially for titanium and aluminum alloys, forms a pigmented sol-gel film covalently bonded on the metal surface to produce desired color, gloss, reflectivity, electrical conductivity, emissivity, or a combination thereof usable over a wide temperature range. The coating retains its characteristics and impact resistance following exposures to temperatures at least in the range from −321° F. to 750° F. An aqueous sol containing an organometallic alkoxide containing either Ti or Al and an organosilane with an organic acid catalyst and stabilizer is applied to etched or grit blasted substrates by dipping, spraying, or drenching, to produce bonds in a single application comparable in strength and performance to standard anodize controls. The sol-gel coating may be graded in its ceramic character by adjusting the organosilane component between TEOS and silanes that have more distinctive organic character by virtue of organic ligands attached to the silicon.

Ionic liquid mediated sol-gel sorbents

Ionic liquid (IL)-mediated sol-gel hybrid organic-inorganic materials present enormous potential for effective use in analytical microextraction. One obstacle to materializing this prospect arises from high viscosity of ILs significantly slowing down sol-gel reactions. A method was developed which provides phosphonium-based, pyridinium-based, and imidazolium-based IL-mediated advanced sol-gel organic-inorganic hybrid materials for capillary microextraction. Scanning electron microscopy results demonstrate that ILs can serve as porogenic agents in sol-gel reactions. IL-mediated sol-gel coatings prepared with silanol-terminated polymers provided up to 28 times higher extractions compared to analogous sol-gel coatings prepared without any IL in the sol solution. This study shows that IL-generated porous morphology alone is not enough to provide effective extraction media: careful choice of the organic polymer and the precursor with close sol-gel reactivity must be made to ensure effective chemical bonding of the organic polymer to the created sol-gel material to be able to provide the desired sorbent characteristics.
