This work successfully prepared an UV curable organic-inorganic hybrid material consisting of organic modified colloidal silica. Applications of UV curable organic-inorganic hybrid materials include abrasion resistant coatings, photo-patternable thin films and waveguides. Colloidal silica containing reactive functional groups were also prepared by reacting organic silane and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) using sol-gel process. In addition, the efficiency of grafting organic moiety onto silica nanoparticles was investigated by applying TGA and FTIR techniques. Experimental results indicated a strong interdependence between surface modification efficiency and solution pH. Acrylate-SiO2 hybrid formation could result in a shifting of thermal degradation temperature of organic component from about 200°C to near 400°C. In addition, the stability of organic modified colloidal silica in UV curable formula and the physical properties of resulting coatings were discussed. Furthermore, the morphology of organic modified colloidal silica was investigated by performing TEM and SEM studies‥

To characterize a suitable biomass for alkaline peroxide treatment, four types of lignocellulosic biomass (rice straw, two Miscanthus spp., and Japanese cypress) were characterized using thermogravimetric analysis. Before the alkaline peroxide treatment, rice straw had the lowest initial thermal degradation temperature and Japanese cypress had the highest. After alkaline peroxide treatment, this trend was reversed, such that the highest initial thermal degradation temperature was for alkaline-peroxide treated rice straw. Hemicellulose and lignin content significantly affected the thermal degradation behavior and alkaline peroxide treatment efficiency. Among the four lignocelluloses, raw rice straw exhibited the highest reducing capability, whereas the treated rice straw exhibited the lowest reducing capability. Surface morphology and crystallinity indicated that when the rice straw was subjected to AP treatment at room temperature for 10 min, crystalline cellulose microfibrils were exposed and concentrated on the surface. Thus, among the samples tested, rice straw was found to be the most suitable biomass for alkaline peroxide treatment.

Colloidal silica/methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMS) sol solutions were prepared in variation with the ratio of MTMS to colloidal silica. Sol solutions were prepared by sol-gel reaction. To understand their physical and chemical properties, dip coating of sol solutions was performed on the glass substrates. The state of coating films was investigated in variation with the amount of MTMS and reaction time. The contact angle and thickness of coating films increased with an increasing amount of MTMS. The surface roughness of coating films decreased with an increasing amount of MTMS. Coating films were stable until 550°C. Thermal degradation temperature of coating films decreased with an increasing amount of MTMS.
