The silica-alumina sol bonding agent, prepared by the sol gel route from ethyl silicate and aluminium isopropanol, was utilized in the refractory castables. The influence of structure on the heat transfer has been investigated using different sorts of refractory matrix. The results indicated that the heat conductivity of sol-gel bonded castables was considerably affected by their structure. The phase composition of matrix, porosity, pore size distribution and pore size structure were the most important factors. Thermal conductivity has been measured from the ambient temperature up to 1250 °C. The influence of crystalline phases and the glassy phase formation and the influence of the pore size distribution on the thermal conductivity were also described in this work.

AbstractThis work shows how the geometrical confinements enhances the nuclear relaxation of a non wetting liquid in a model porous systems. Application of the proposed theory is made to interpret the size and frequency dependences of the 1H relaxation of methylcyclohexane liquid in sol-gel porous silica glasses with narrow pore-size distribution.

ABSTRACTInorganic membranes prepared by the sol gel method are promising candidates for use as filters in separation processes. Conducting supported membranes and coatings have been produced from redispersable nanoscaled crystalline Sb-doped SnO2 powders with a Sb content up to 5 mole % (with respect to Sn). The crystalline particles are monosized (≅4 nm) and fully redispersable in aqueous solution at pH ≥ 8 with a solid content up to 70 wt. %. By thermal treatment at different temperatures and times, the pore size diameter of the material can be adjusted from 4 to 20 nm with a very narrow pore size distribution (∼ ±1 nm) and a total porosity of 63 %, practically independent of the sintering parameters. Uniaxial pressed substrates present similar characteristics with however larger pore size distribution (±5 nm) and 80 % total porosity. Their resistance decreases with sintering temperature and time down to 4 Ω (800 °C 8 h). Fully dispersed aqueous solutions of the powder (25 wt. %) were used to prepare transparent conducting coatings on glass or ceramics by spin-coating. After thermal treatment (1 hour at 550 °C) single layers 200 nm thick exhibited a typical specific electrical resistance ρ = 2.5·10−2 ωcm with transmission in the visible range measured against air of 90%.
