Synthetic wollastonite powder was added as bioactive phase. The composites were prepared by dispersing wollastonite powder in the sol with the assistance of high power ultrasounds to control the gelling time. Wet composites were dried under supercritical conditions of the solvent. The mechanical characterization was performed by uniaxial compression and by nanoindentation. Young's modulus from uniaxial compression increase from 5 MPa to 100 MPa for increasing MTES content and also rupture modulus was enhanced from 0.85 MPa to about 50 MPa, so the incorporation of cross linkers in this kind of aerogels, was proven to enhance the mechanical resistance. However the inclusion of wollastonite powders provokes a dropping of the Young's modulus and hardness. All the composites showed bioactivity by the formation of an apatite layer when immersed in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF).

Hybrid silica-based coatings with tetraethoxysilane (TEOS), methyltrietoxysilane (MTES), polyurethane (PU) and commercial silica colloidal solution (Ludox HS30) as precursors, were used. The procedure is divided in the following three steps: 1) obtaining homogenous and stable solutions of different organic silica-polymer composition, 2) aggregation of the black pigment with the formulate FeMnO_x, 3) Coating substrates by both dip-coating and aerograph airbrush, at room temperature. The films obtained were characterized by SEM, AFM and nano-indentation. The coatings of the Ludox-MTES-PU/FeMnO_x system showed the better characteristics concerning the morphology and the adhesion to the glass and metallic copper substrates.

查看更多>>摘要：Organic/inorganic hybrids silica aerogels were synthesized by the classical sol-gel method with application of high power ultrasounds to the liquid mixture. Precursors were tetraethoxysilane (TEOS), as inorganic phase, and polydimethyl siloxane (PDMS), as organic one. These hybrid organic-inorganic materials are known as ORMOSIL (ORganically Modified SILicates). Monolithic aerogels were obtained by supercritical drying in ethanol. Failure tests by uniaxial compression shows an increase of the rupture modulus as well as a decrease of the Young's modulus with the polymer content, tuning from a brittle solid to a rubbery-like one. These hybrid aerogels behave as elastomers showing a decrease in the relaxation viscoelastic modulus. Nanoindentation tests have been performed in these hybrid aerogels: load/unload cycles about 1.5 mN of maximum load have shown a decreasing value of the reduced modulus, as well as both plastic and elastic work with the organic content, while hardness remains almost constant. Elastic recovery parameter rised with the increasing organic content. Results from creep tests made with uniaxial compression configuration are discussed and compared with nanoindentation. Viscoelastic behavior of these hybrids materials can be described by a rheological model.
