纳米纤维状白炭黑的孔隙特征

在与传统白炭黑对比研究基础上,利用TEM、XRD、FT_IR和氮吸附法对纳米纤维状白炭黑(MLD为92.73%)进行研究,主要讨论了纳米纤维状白炭黑多孔结构的成因、孔径大小、孔分布及孔类型等特征。分析表明纤蛇纹石中氢氧镁石八面体层被酸溶蚀和硅氧四面体层的塌陷是导致这种白炭黑具有多孔纳米纤维结构的直接原因;有两种孔隙类型,即纤维上的孔隙和纤维的堆积孔隙;纤维上的孔隙包括SiO_2微粒间的孔隙、其聚结体间的孔隙、残余纳米管的管道和毛细管道;孔径2.1和3.8nm处的孔隙数量多,并且在纳米纤维(或管)上存在大量小于5nm左右的微孔。研究证明了在用于橡胶、塑料填充补强剂和催化剂载体等方面,纳米纤维状白炭黑更优于传统白炭黑。     

Porous Properties of Nano-fibriform Silica from Natural Chrysotile

With the TEM and physical gas adsorption techniques, porous properties of nano-ribriform silica （MLD： 92.73%） from natural chrysotile are studied in this paper. The results indicate that porous nano-fibriform silica results from brucite octahedral sheets of nature chrysotile dissolved completely and Si-O tetrahedral sheets collapsed by acid leaching. Its length is at a micron or nanometer scale. There are two types of pores： pores among neighboring fibers and pores in nanoriber. These pores （less than 6.5 nm in diameter, mostly 2.1 nm and 3.8 nm） all belong to mesopores. The pores in fibers consist of those among SiO2 particles, those among aggregates, remnant nanotubes and capillary tubes. Nanoribriform silica proves better than the traditional silica as a carrier of catalyzer and a filler for reinforce rubber and plastics.
