Abstract | The results of structural and morphological investigations of methylsilsesquioxane finely divided particles synthesized by hydrolytical co−condensation of methyltrichlorosilane and tetrachlorous silicon alcocksilined «in situ» are presented. The silica−type hydrophobe particles were obtained using above mentioned method with the result of 98.7—99.4 % (mass) compared to load. These particles were identified as crystalline formations with lattice period of 5.5—8.0 nm and inter−planery distance 0.92—1.04 nm in near order. It is shown that in contrast to well−known crystalline methylsilsesquioxanes introduction of chemically bonded SiO4/2 fragments in material structure leads to formation of 2—3 micrometer−size spherical particles from primarily existed 10—15 nm particles; these namely particles are responsible for spherical surface morphology. The method of extraction of siloxane nano−particles (2.5—280 nm) from products of reaction was described; the behavior of particles in suspension was studied and particle dimensional parameters were determined with the help of helium−neon 0.6328 nm laser correlation spectroscopy. |
