Hollow glass micro-beads uniformly coated by a shell of titania with thickness of 50 to 300 nm, were fabricated by wet chemical methods. The pigments were dispersed in silica coatings,then the pigmented coatings were deposited on quartz substrates by sol-gel spin-coating method with a thickness of about 80 µm. SEM, TEM and FT-IR techniques were used to characterize the microstructure and properties of the coatings. FT-IR indicated average infrared transmittance of coatings containing the core-shell particles was significantly lower than that of coatings containing no functional particles or containing hollow glass micro-beads, when the volume fraction of core-shell particles was just 5%. In view of its low infrared transmittance, pigmented silica coatings may find applications in high-temperature heat-insulating materials for reducing radiation heat transfer.

This study aims to describe the preparation and characterization of SiO2/TiO2 core-shell particles. In order to prepare the homogenous SiO2/TiO2 inorganic compounds by sol-gel process, SiO2 particles were used as the core, AcAc served as a chelating agent to chelate with TTIP (which was used as the precursor to TiO2), and PEG was added to stabilize the hydrolysis/condensation process. In addition, the ionic surfactant (SDS) and the nonionic surfactant (PVP) dispersed the core-shell particles. In order to improve the crystal structure, a high temperature was used to calcine the core-shell particles. The influence of various reaction parameters on the size, morphology and composition of the particles was also investigated. The properties of the particles were analyzed by electron microscopy, fourier transform infrared analysis, thermogravimetric analysis and powder X-ray diffraction.

AbstractIn this paper, the composite latex particles with a polyacrylate (PA) core and a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) shell via 3-(methacryloxypropyl)- trimethoxy silane (MPS) as the medium to link the core and shell were prepared by semicontinuous seeded emulsion polymerization and were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), FT-IR, particle size analyzer and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The TEM images indicated that the particles containing organic siloxane (D-40) displayed an evident core/shell structure. Additionally, the study by FT-IR and XPS also revealed that D4 could be grafted onto the surface of polyacrylate core because there appeared the characteristic peaks of Si-O-Si group and Si 2s and Si 2p in the spectra of FT-IR and XPS respectively. Besides, the atomic ratio of C/Si on the surface of the core/shell particles (D-40) was close to the ratio of C/Si in the latex of pure PDMS that could prove the PA particles were fully covered by PDMS and the properties of PDMS should be embodied in a maximal level. In order to testify the result, the surface properties of the films produced from the core/shell particles were also investigated by the static contact angle method. Compared with the copolymer of PA, the core/shell particles were more effective to create hydrophobic surface, so, the introduction of D4 was capable of obvious increase in water repellency.

Nanocrystalline GdPO4 : Eu3+ phosphor layers were coated on non-aggregated, monodisperse and spherical SiO2 particles by Pechini sol–gel method, resulting in the formation of core–shell structured SiO2 @ GdPO4 : Eu3+ particles. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), photoluminescence (PL), low-voltage cathodoluminescence (CL), time-resolved PL spectra and lifetimes were used to characterize the core–shell structured materials. Both XRD and FT-IR results indicate that GdPO4 layers have been successfully coated on the SiO2 particles, which can be further verified by the images of FESEM and TEM. Under UV light excitation, the SiO2 @ GdPO4 : Eu3+ phosphors show orange-red luminescence with Eu3+ 5D0–7F1 (593 nm) as the most prominent group. The PL excitation and emission spectra suggest that an energy transfer occurs from Gd3+ to Eu3+ in SiO2 @ GdPO4 : Eu3+ phosphors. The obtained core–shell phosphors have potential applications in FED and PDP devices.

In this paper, we report the synthesis of the bifunctional Fe3O4@SiO2@Eu-polyoxometalates particles. The magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4) homogeneously coated with silica spheres prepared with the Stöber method. The so-obtained Fe3O4@SiO2 core/shell particles were modified by 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and finally grafted with the luminescent Europium -polyoxometalates. The core-shell particles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, FT-IR, UV, magnetism and luminescence spectroscopy. The results indicated that the core-shell particles show both interesting luminescence and magnetic properties.
