ABSTRACTSol-gel processes for the synthesis of high purity, ultrafine BaTi4O9 and BaTiO3 powders are described. Hydrolysis of an alkoxide precursor derived from barium metal and titanium (IV) isopropoxide resulted in formation of powders consisting of ultrafine (0.2 to 1.0 μm) spherical particles. These amorphous precursor powders were converted to crystalline BaTi4O9 powders (particle size 2–3 μm) by heat treatment at 1100 C. The sol-gel process for the synthesis of BaTiOj powders utilized chemical polymerization between moisture insensitive and relatively inexpensive barium acetate and titanium (IV) isopropoxide in the presence of acetic acid. The gel to ceramic conversion was achieved by firing the gels at 1000 °C to obtain high purity, stoichiometric BaTiO3 powders. The powders were sintered to obtain relatively dense (90 % relative density) ceramic bodies.

. In the present work we used the sol-gel process to prepare Y2SiO5 precursor sols suitable for electrophoretic deposition (EPD). The sol synthesis was performed through the controlled hydrolysis of alkoxide solutions of tetraethoxysilane and yttriumoxoisopropoxide. During sol development emphasis was put on characterization of particles size and zeta potential of the formed aggregates. We succeeded in synthesizing a clear sol containing polymeric aggregates with acceptable particle charge. The electrophoretic deposition on glassy carbon or C/C-SiC slabs led to homogenous layers. At low sol concentrations micro cracks in the deposited layers were observed whereas higher concentrations led to thin and dense layers. During constant current EPD a constant voltage was recorded indicating that the deposited layer does not lead to an increase in resistivity in this kind of EPD system.

Considerable amounts of anatase nanocrystals were formed on the (100 − x)SiO2·xTiO2 coatings with x of 16.5 and 25 mol% with boiling water treatment, whereas the formation of anatase nanocrystals was not clearly observed for the coatings with x of 50 and 75 mol%. Despite the lower TiO2 content, the coatings with x of 16.5 and 25 mol% showed higher concentration of Si–O–Ti bonds among the coatings. Thus, the hydrolysis of Si–O–Ti bonds and resultant sites should facilitate the nucleation and growth of anatase nanocrystals. High transparency, high photocatalytic activity, and superhydrophilicity were demonstrated for the anatase nanocrystals-precipitated coatings.

AbstractThis work is about the production of hybrid coatings of the system SiO2-PMMA (PMMA, polymethylmethacrylate). These materials have interesting mechanical and chemical properties useful for anticorrosive and wear resistance applications. SiO2-PMMA hybrids were obtained by the sol-gel traditional process, using tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) and methylmethacrylate (MMA) by Aldrich Co, as starting reagents. The SiO2:PMMA ratio was varied from 0:1 to about 1:1 at air atmosphere deposition. The coatings were obtained on acrylic sheets and silicon wafers. A diversity of coatings with chemical composition ranging from SiO2 and PMMA to obtain the SiO2-PMMA hybrids were obtained. Infrared (IR) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), were performed to determinate structural and morphological behavior.
