Making Hybrid Materials: Class 1C(Polymerizing in pores)

1) Monolithic inorganic Polymer nanocomposite from completely filling pores2) Reinforced xerogel or aerogel by coating aggregated particles with polymer3) Polymerizing intercalated monomers in clay 4) Polymer surrounding colloid crystal of inorganic

First example: Monolithic inorganic Polymer nanocomposite from completely filling pores

• Infiltration & polymerization of monomer in pores of gel

• Provides a percolating filler phase based on the original gel skeleton

Transparent, tough, tailorable refractive index, abrasion resistant

Reinforced xerogel or aerogel by coating aggregated particles with polymer

Porous materials, like aerogels, are super thermal insulation, but very weak

Monomers, such as superglue, can be polymerized directly on surface by chemical vapor deposition

Boday, D. J.; Stover, . J.; Muriithi, B.; Keller, M. W.; Wertz, J. T.; DeFriend Obrey, K. A.; Loy, D. A. ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces 2009, 1(7), 1364.

Reinforced xerogel or aerogel by coating aggregated particles with polymer

Epoxies, urethanes, some vinyl polymers

monomers can be polymerized in solution if they will precipitate onto the particles surfaces.

1) First heat 100 g montmorillonite (MMT) with 51.6 g of aminolauric acid and 24 mL conc. HCl in 10 Liters of water for 10 min.2) Filter, was 3X with 10 L hot water, then freeze dry, then dry under vacuum at 100 °C to afford ion exchanged, intercalated MMT3) Mix 29.7 g intercalated MMT, 509 g caprolactam, and 66 g 6-aminocaproic acid were mixed in mortar in pestle.4) The mixture was polymerized in3000 mL round bottom flask with mech. Stirrer and under nitrogen for 30 min at 100 °C then for 6 h at 250 °C. 5) The products were crushed in mortar & pestle, then washed with water and dried at 89 °C.

1) Prepare a colloidal crystal (opal) from silica particles2) Add monomer & catalyst to fill pores3) Polymerize to form72% by volume silica filled organic polymer4) Dissolve silica away with HF if inverse opal is desired

Class 1D: Small organic phase dispersed in

continuous inorganic phase

Making Hybrid Materials: Class 1D(encapsulation of small organics)

• Polymerize metal oxide around organic• pores must be small or leakage will occur•Solid state dye lasers, filters, colored glass•sunscreens•Biopolymers•Medicines•Living cells•Imprinting (artificial enzymes)

Class 1D: the organic dye is trapped within the silica network

Simple method for encapsulating dyes.
