Problems solved by technology

Among them, CO 2 Supercritical drying is the most typical, but the preparation cycle is time-consuming due to the lengthy solvent exchange required by this method; subsequently, supercritical drying with organic solvents such as acetone [10] and isopropanol [11] has been proposed. Shorten the preparation cycle to some extent
However, the airgel products obtained by supercritical drying are extremely expensive. Therefore, it was proposed to replace the solvent with high surface tension with a solvent with low surface tension to achieve normal pressure drying of organogels [12]. However, Solvent replacement also has the disadvantage of a long preparation cycle, and the method is demanding on the degree of replacement, which greatly increases the difficulty of preparing bulk aerogels

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing organic airgel and carbon airgel by normal pressure drying method. In this method, resorcinol and furfural are used as reaction monomers, hexamethylenetetramine is used as a catalyst, organic reagents such as isopropanol are used as solvents, and organic gel is obtained by heating and curing; then, it is directly dried or heated under normal pressure. Organic aerogels are obtained by drying; afterward, charcoal aerogels with high specific surface area are obtained by carbonization in an inert atmosphere. The carbon airgel preparation process of the present invention avoids the complex process of the conventional supercritical drying method, the technology is simple, fast, and has low equipment requirements, and can realize the industrialized production of the carbon airgel.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing organic airgel and carbon airgel by normal pressure drying method. technical background [0002] In the late 1980s, Pekala R.W. of Lawrance Livermore National Laboratory in the United States prepared RF (resorcinolformaldehyde) organic airgel for the first time, and carbonized it to obtain carbon aerogel. Carbon airgel is a lightweight nanoporous material made up of spherical nanoparticles connected to each other. Its porosity is as high as 80-98%, and the typical pore size is less than 50nm. Generally, the diameter of network particles is about 3-20nm, and the specific surface area Up to 600~1100m 2 g -1 , the density is 0.05~0.80g / cm 3 . Due to this unique nano-network structure, carbon aerogels and their organic aerogel precursors are widely used in Cerenkov detectors, acoustic impedance coupling materials, catalysts and catalyst supports, gas filter materials, and high-efficiency heat insulation m...
