Silicon powder is a kind of important nonmetallic mineral. It not only reduce the cost of polymer materials, but also can improve the performance of materials. In order to make silicon powder play a better role, this paper shows that surface modification of silicon powder by using the silane coupling agents KH550 and KH560. Through hydrophobic property, infiltrating performance, activation index, infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).It can be find that the evaluation and characterization of silicon powder modification effect. Comprehensive analysis shows that the modification effect is best,when KH550 and KH560 is the ratio of 1:2.

This paper demonstrates that silica nanoparticles were modified by the four silane coupling agents (KH-151, KH-550, KH-560, KH-570) firstly, then polystyrene/silica (PS/SiO2) composite microsphere with PS core and silica nanoparticles shell were prepared by Pickering emulsion polymerization. The characterization of optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and thermogravimetic analysis ( TGA) illustrates that these microsphere are composed of PS and silica nanoparticles. Silica nanoparticles modified by the different silane coupling agents could form the stable PS/SiO2 microsphere over 70 °C, while the unmodified silica nanoparticles are difficult to form stable PS/SiO2 microspheres at the same temperature. The PS/KH-151-SiO2 microsphere exhibits the least average particle size, while the PS/KH-570-SiO2 microsphere produces the largest. Both SEM and TGA confirm that microsphere surface exists solid nanoparticles.

The increasing efforts aimed to design structures with reduced weight and better mechanical performances has led in recent years to a growing use of fiber reinforced polymer materials in several fields such as marine. However, these materials can be composed of chemically very different elements and, hence, may be difficult to joint. This research aims to improve the adhesion between a thermoplastic matrix of polyamide reinforced with short carbon fibers (PA12-CR) and a carbon fiber reinforced epoxy matrix (CFRP). Two different silane coupling agents, (3-Aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane (AM) and (3-Glycidyloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane (EP), were applied, through the spray deposition method, on the PA12-CR substrate to create a reactive layer between the adherents. Different deposition methods and coupling agents curing conditions were also investigated. The wettability of the PA12-CR surface as well as the chemical modifications induced by silane treatments were investigated through contact angle and Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses. Furthermore, the interfacial adhesion between PA12-CR and CFRP substrates was evaluated through Mode I delamination tests (DCB). The effectiveness of the most promising treatment was finally verified on sandwich structures, having PA12-CR printed as internal core and CFRP laminates as external skins, through quasi-static three-point bending mechanical tests. Overall, the epoxy-based silane (EP) allowed significantly better resistance to the delamination up until the tensile failure of the CFRP substrate.

Highly crystalline and dispersible zirconia, synthesized by solvothermal reaction of zirconium (IV) isopropoxide isopropanol complex in benzyl alcohol, were functionalized with silane coupling agent and dispersed with o-phenylphenoxyethyl acrylate (OPPEA). Silane coupling agents such as 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) of amino functional silane, decyltrimethoxysilane (DTMS) of alkyl functional silane and 3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate (MPS) of acrylate functional silane have been used to modify nanoparticle surfaces and obtain dispersion of nanoparticles within OPPEA. The surface modified zirconia was compared according to silane coupling agent, FT-IR and TGA demonstrated that APTES, DMTS and MPS are chemically attached to the surface of the zirconia. The MPS-zirconia is dispersed as about 5 nm sized, whereas the APTES-zirconia, DTMS-zirconia are agglomerated. The MPS-zirconia/tetrahydrofuran (THF) sol at 15wt% loading shows high transmittance of 68 % at 550 cm-1 and the 50wt% surface modified-zirconia/OPPEA sol show refractive index of 1.657.

Anatase-type one-dimensional TiO2 nanowire was prepared by hydrothermal method. The nanowires were modified by three kinds of silane coupling agents, such as KH550, KH560 and KH570. Flocculation was caused when the amount of modifier reached a certain level. When KH570 was used at 3.0 percent, at 80 °C, 4 h, and pH value between 9 and 10, modified nanowires had the highest 56.5 percent lipophilization degree, the lowest 0.562 per/nm2 surface hydroxyl number, and the maximal 121.2° static contact angle.

Modified by silane coupling agents APTES and MPTES, PAN fiber was provided with multi-chelating-group on it. Through the chelating effect, it can be directly used to eletroless silver plating without roughening, sensitization and activation. The molecule structure, morphology and thermal stability were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and therm-gravimetric (TG) analysis. In addition, electrical conductivity, and washing performance were also tested respectively. The results indicated that silver-coated PAN fiber based on APTES/MPTES modification had high conductivity with a compact and homogeneous silver layer, as well as good washing fastness performance.

Characterization of TiO2 surface following the modification with silane coupling agents Studies were conducted on the modification of titanium white surface using selected silane coupling agents. The effect of the concentration of the organic coupling agents was examined (0.5; 1 or 3 weight parts per 100 weight parts of TYTANPOL R-003, TYTANPOL R-211 or TYTANPOL R-213 preparation of titanium white). The dispersive properties were determined by an estimation of the particle size distribution curves and of the polydispersity index. Moreover, microscopic observations were conducted permitting to evaluate the surface morphology of the modified TiO2 particles. The profiles of sedimentation in water were also determined for the titanium whites and the BET specific surface areas were determined. Selected samples of the modified and unmodified titanium whites were subjected to elemental analysis.
