Route sol-gel

Mechanistic studies are particularly needed for the hydrolysis and polymerization reactions that occur in sol-gel processing. Currently, little is known about these reactions, even in simple systems. A short list of needs includes such rudimentary data as the kinetics of hydrolysis and polymerization of single alkoxide sol-gel systems and identification of the species present at various stages of gel polymerization. A study of the kinetics of hydrolysis and polymerization of double alkoxide sol-gel systems might lead to the production of more homogeneous ceramics by sol-gel routes. Another major area for exploration is the chemistry of sol-gel systems that might lead to nonoxide ceramics.

A convenient method to introduce organic functions into inorganic networks is the use of substituted siliceous acid esters and the sol-gel route. The basic reactions, therefore, are given in Equations 1 and 2. Equation 1 describes the sol-gel reaction to a borosilicate glass.

During past decades, a relatively new method attracted much of attention of experimentalists, namely, the sol-gel method widely implemented in numerous scientific and industrial applications. Actually, it caused a breakthrough in material science it is worth mentioning that sol-gel routes are cmcial for synthesis of nanomaterials, and one of methods of the 21st century namely, commercial nanoporous glasses are readily available on the market just thanks to sol-gel technologies.

In this chapter we shall focus on the synthesis and adsorption characteristics of a CMS, prepared by a co-condensation or sol-gel route following the S°I° (S°, a neutral amine 1°, a neutral inorganie preeursor) pathway [3,6]. Immobilization of some cobalt(III) oxo clusters on CMS support, characterization of the resultant supported materials, and the use of these Co(III)-CMS materials in eatalytie oxidation rmder enviromnentally friendly conditions are also described. Related results available in the published literatine are also included at appropriate places with a view to broadening the scope of oin discussion. 

The variety of finely divided silica known as hexagonal mesoporous silica (HMS) [6,34] is generally prepared by the copolymerization of a silica precursor such as tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), in presence of a suitable template. This acid or base catalyzed reaction follows the sol-gel route and it has been found [28] that during silica preparation by this technique, it is also possible to add an organotriethoxysilane [RSi(OEt)3] that would...
