In this present study, the spherical silica support was synthesized from tetraethyloxysilane (TEOS), water, sodium hydroxide, ethylene glycol and n-dodecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (C12TMABr). The particle size was controlled by variation of the ethylene glycol co-solvent weight ratio of a sol-gel method preparation in the range of 0.10 to 0.50. In addition, the particle size apparently increases with high weight ratio of co-solvent, but the particle size distribution was broader. The standard deviation of particle diameter is large when the co-solvent weight ratio is more than 0.35 and less than 0.15. However, the specific surface area was similar for all weight ratios ranging from 1000 to 1300 m2/g. The synthesized silica was spherical and has high specific surface area. The cobalt was impregnated onto the obtained silica to produce the cobalt catalyst used for CO2 hydrogenation.</

To promote the application of BaTi4O9 in higher-end fields, BaTi4O9 precursor has been prepared with sol-gel method (SGM. The objective products have been obtained at different temperatures and SSR-BaTi4O9 samples has been prepared for compare experiments. The studies of thermal analysis, XRD analysis, TEM analysis, specific surface area analysis, DRS analysis and FS analysis show: the crystalline of the product obtained by SGM is more purity than the product obtained by SSR; The SGM600 sample is amorphous, which can be used as an optical catalyst because of the maximum specific surface area; The SGM1000 sample is the most pure, uniform and complete in crystal.

Дана оценка влияния свойств природного и синтезированного на технической целлюлозе из рисовой и овсяной шелухи диоксида кремния на каталазную активность диоксидсодержащих материалов. Техническую целлюлозу из шелухи получали окислительно-органосольвентным способом. Закрепление диоксида кремния на целлюлозе проводили золь-гель методом с применением тетраэтоксисилана. Свойства полученных диоксидсодержащих материалов оценивали: рентгеноструктурным анализом, методом тепловой десорбции азота, эмиссионным спектральным анализом с индукционно-связанной плазмой. Каталазную активность диоксидсодержащих материалов оценивали по модельной реакции разложения Н2О2. В ходе работы получены образцы целлюлозы: из рисовой шелухи с содержании зольного остатка от 0,3 до 33,5%; из овсяной и рисовой шелухи без содержания минеральных компонентов. Золь-гель методом получены материалы с содержанием синтетического диоксида кремния от 0 до 47,2% на основе рисовой шелухи и от 0 до 44,3% на основе овсяной шелухи. Установлено, что количество закрепленного диоксида кремния золь-гель методом не зависит от природы технической целлюлозы. Диоксид кремния остающийся в технической целлюлозе находится в аморфном состоянии. Максимум удельной поверхности (20,4 м2/г) достигается при предельном содержанием диоксида кремния (30,3%). Синтезированный на технической целлюлозе золь-гель методом диоксид кремния находится в кристаллическом состоянии, при этом максимальная удельная поверхность составляет для диоксидсодержащего материала на основе ОШ 18,5 м2/г, а для диоксидсодержащего материала на основе РШ 15,7 м2/г); Выявлено, что каталазной активностью обладает диоксидсодержащий материал с природным диоксидом кремния. Такой каталазный эффект можно объяснить наличием примесей в виде металлов, которые накапливаются в минеральном компоненте растительного сырья при вегетации. Образцы целлюлозы с синтезированным диоксидом кремния каталазной активностью не обладают, независимо от удельной поверхности и содержания SiO2. The influence of the properties of natural and synthesized silicon dioxide on technical cellulose from rice and oat husks on the catalase activity of dioxidecontaining materials is estimated. Technical cellulose from the husk was obtained by the oxidative-organosolvent method. The fixation of silicon dioxide on cellulose was carried out by the sol-gel method using tetraethoxysilane. The properties of the obtained dioxide-containing materials were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis, nitrogen thermal desorption method, inductively coupled plasmaemission spectroscopy. The catalase activity of the dioxide-containing materials was evaluated by the model reaction of Н2О2 decomposition. In the course of the work, the following samples of cellulose were obtained: one from rice husks with an ash content of 0.3 to 33.5%; one from oat and rice husks without mineral components. The sol-gel method was used to obtain materials with a content of synthetic silicon dioxide from 0 to 47.2% based on rice husk and from 0 to 44.3% based on oat husk. It was established that the amount of fixed silicon dioxide by the sol-gel method does not depend on the origin of the technical cellulose. The silicon dioxide remaining in the technical cellulose is in an amorphous state. The maximum specific surface area (20.4 m2/g) is achieved at the limiting silicon dioxide content (30.3%). The silicon dioxide synthesized on technical cellulose by the sol-gel method is in a crystalline state, with the maximum specific surface area being 18.5 m2/g for a dioxide-containing material based on OH, and 15.7 m2/g for a dioxide-containing material based on RH; It was found that dioxide-containing material with natural silicon dioxide possesses the catalase activity. This catalase effect can be explained by the presence of impurities in the form of metals, which are accumulated in the mineral component of plant raw materials during the vegetation. Cellulose samples with synthesized silicon dioxide do not have catalase activity, independently from specific surface area and SiO2 content.

AbstractAlumina-zirconia composite materials were produced with different acid ratios by the sol-gel method using aluminum isopropoxide and zirconium chloride. The composites were produced by changing acid/alkoxside ratio in alumina. The composite materials were calcinated at 600°C, 900°C and 1300°C. The effects of acid concentration and calcination temperature on the surface area and pore radius were determined from the nitrogen adsorption isotherm at 77 K. The density of the composites was also measured. The minimum density of produced material was recorded as 1.35 g cm−3 at an acid/alkoxside ratio of 0.2. The highest specific surface area and pore diameter of the lightest material are 191.86 m2 g−1 and 18.4 Ǻ, respectively. Although pore diameter and specific surface area are not changed at any of the experimental temperatures which were tested by decreasing acid/alkoxside ratio, the density is slightly increased. However, it was observed that the calcination temperature significantly affects the surface area and density of the material.
