Embodiment 1

[0037] Mix silicon alkoxide, absolute ethanol, deionized water, n-hexane and 0.1mol / L hydrochloric acid and then perform hydrolysis reaction to prepare sol. The hydrolysis time is 4 hours, and the hydrolysis temperature is 25°C. The molar ratio of silicon alkoxide and hydrochloric acid 1:9×10 -5 , the molar ratio of silicon alkoxide, absolute ethanol, deionized water and n-hexane is 1:4:4:1.5. In the prepared sol, add an appropriate amount of 0.1mol / L ammonia water, wherein the molar ratio of silicon alkoxide and ammonia water is 1:1.8×10 -4 , after stirring for 5 minutes, let it stand until it gels. The prepared gel was placed in absolute ethanol and aged at 50° C. for 10 h, which was equivalent to one replacement. A mixed solution of trimethylchlorosilane (TMCS) and n-hexane was used as a surface modifier to modify the aged gel, where the molar ratio of TMCS and n-hexane was TMCS:N-hexane=1:10, each time The modification time is 3h, and the modification is performed twice...

Abstract

The invention discloses an ambient pressure drying method for rapidly preparing SiO2 aerogel. Part of an alcohol solvent is replaced with a solvent with low surface tension; silica-alkoxides, the non-replaced alcohol solvent, an acidic catalyst, a basic catalyst and the solvent with the low surface tension are prepared into sol according to a certain proportion, after alcogel containing the solvent with the low surface tension is formed, ageing and surface modification processes are carried out, and then, ambient pressure drying is directly carried out, so that the complex solvent exchanging step is omitted, and the SiO2 aerogel is prepared within 30h. By using the method, not only are the defects such as high equipment investment, low efficiency, high cost of the traditional supercritical drying process overcome, but also the problems of long period, high using cost for solvent exchanging and the like in the traditional ambient pressure drying process are solved, and the prepared SiO2 aerogel has the characteristics of low surface density, large specific area, large pore volume and the like.
