Aerogels from Chloromethyltrimethoxysilane and Their Functionalizations.
Langmuir : the ACS Journal of Surfaces and Colloids 2017 December 6
Reactions of chloromethyltrimethoxysilane (CMTMS) and its derived colloidal network polychloromethylsilsesquioxane (PCMSQ) have been investigated to extend the material design strategy toward functionalized and mechanically reinforced aerogels. In a carefully designed sol-gel system, CMTMS has afforded transparent aerogels in the presence of cationic surfactant. The surface chloromethyl groups with polarity and reactivity are shown to be useful for supporting nanostructures, with photoluminescent carbon dots (C-dots) prepared from polyethylenimine and citric acid as an example. Furthermore, since nucleophilic substitution (SN 2) reactions on the surface chloromethyl groups are found to control the equilibrium of formation/dissociation of siloxane bonds, a new gelation strategy triggered by SN 2 reactions in sol-gel has been developed. In the presence of nucleophilic organic species such as polyamines, a hybrid network consisting of PCMSQ cross-linked with a polyamine nucleophile can be prepared to enhance mechanical properties of aerogel.
