摘要
SiO2 is widely used in nanocomposites as reinforcement nanoparticle to enhance mechanical properties especially wear resistivity. Prior to use, surface modification with proper and sufficient coupling agent should be performed on it. Coupling agent concentration plays a key role in modification process. In this study, the influence of 3-(glycidoloxy propyl) trimethoxy silane (GPTMS) concentration on surface modification of SiO2 nanoparticles, is experimentally investigated. The surface modification of nano-silica were performed by 30, 50, 80 and 110 wt.% of GPTMS in order to introduce the optimal GPTMS concentration to complete the process. Fourier Transformation Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), Thermo Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) characterized the pure and surface modified samples; then, the results were compared to each other to achieve the aim of the research. FTIR results confirmed the silanization proceed due to the silane absorption peak disappearing and shifting of the hydroxyl group bonds in to the amide bonds. This test showed that 30 wt.% GPTMS has not been sufficient for full functionalization of the NPs. According to FESEM images, it seems that the NPs were better modified by 80 wt.% GPTMS due to the least NPs aggregation and lack of coupling agent deposition on the NPs. Also, TGA illustrates that this sample has higher thermal stability because of lower weight loss (11.2%) in coupling agent decomposition temperature range: 130–380 °C. Furthermore, X-Ray Diffraction confirmed the FESEM and TGA results about the mentioned sample due to its highest crystallite size (increase 26.64% in crystallite size in comparison with the pure sample). So, the 80 wt.% of GPTMS introduced as the optimal concentration for surface modification of SiO2 nanoparticles.
