Abstract

The future of sol-gel will show “tailor-made” products with better-defined compositions (also stoichiometric), higher homogeneity and purity, and more controlled processes at lower temperatures. The higher the sol-gel specific advantage is, the higher the future chance. Prognosis for special ceramics should be especially good. “Heavy” industrial procedures will not be replaced. Some fields of interest are described in this sense.

A pedagogical approach for the development and optimization of a novel mix of biowastes-derived hydroxyapatite using the Box-Behnken experimental design
2024, Heliyon
The current study details the creation of synthetic hydroxyapatite (HAp) using a combination of catfish and bovine bones (C&B). This is done to design the optimum processing parameters and consolidate instructional strategies to develop HAp scaffolds for biomedical engineering. The HAp produced from the novel mix of the biogenic materials (C&B) was through calcination and supported with the sol-gel technique, sintering, and low-cold compaction pressure. The ideal preparation conditions were identified with the aid of the Box-Behnken statistical design in response surface methodology. To understand the physicochemical and mechanical properties of the formulation, analytical studies on the synthesized HAp were carried out. To establish a substantial relation between the physicomechanical properties of the produced HAp scaffolds, three parameters— sintering temperature, compaction loads, and holding times were used. In the evaluation, the sintering temperature was found to have the greatest impact on the material's physicomechanical properties, with compressive strength (13 MPa), porosity (49.45 %), and elastic modulus (2.216 GPa) being the most enhanced properties in that order. The physicomechanical characteristics of the HAp scaffolds were at their optimal at 900 °C, 1 h 18 min of holding time, and 311.73 Pa of compaction pressure. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) results showed that powders with a dominant HAp phase were produced at all runs, including the optimum run. Therefore, using a computationally effective methodology that is helpful for novelties in biomedical engineering education, this study demonstrates the optimal process for the synthesis of a novel matrix bone-derived HAp, showing the most significant relations liable for manufacturing medically suitable HAp scaffolds from the mixture of bovine and catfish bones.
Glasses: Sol-gel methods: An introduction
2021, Encyclopedia of Materials: Technical Ceramics and Glasses
This article describes the different steps of the synthesis and transformation of gels (aerogels) as precursors for glass preparation. The glass synthesis is obtained without melting by a control of the different sol–gel–glass steps: gel synthesis, gel drying and heat treatment sintering. Gel-derived silica glass exhibits physical properties identical to those of conventional silica glass. The process has been extended to bulk multicomponent glasses.
The gel porous texture can be used as a host matrix; the porosity allows the gel impregnation with liquid species (monomers, electrolytes, salts in solution). This extends the possibilities of the sol–gel–glass process to a large range of products, from doped silica glass to composites and container materials.
Preparation and chiroptical properties of cellulose chlorophenylcarbamate–silica hybrids having a chiral nematic mesomorphic structure
2019, Polymer

Such a novel class of cellulosic composites is attainable, for example, by deposition of calcium phosphate or carbonate in nanosize onto the cellulosics-derived chiral nematic stratums [11,12], and also by formation of silica networks using a similar liquid-crystalline organization as template [13,14]. Concerning the silica hybridizations, an earlier report by the Mann's group [15] dealt with a CNC–silica hybrid composite obtained via the so-called sol–gel conversion process (Scheme 1) [16–18] of tetramethoxysilane (TMOS), this alkoxysilane being used as a solvent component of liquid-crystalline aqueous CNC suspensions. A contemporary report by Thomas and Antonietti [19] included an iridescently colored hybrid material of hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC)–silica, which was also produced by the sol–gel process of TMOS as a solvent component of aqueous lyotropics of HPC.
An attempt was made to fabricate optically functional cellulosic–silica hybrid materials wherein a helically ordered mesomorphic structure of the cellulosic component was fixed. Cellulose 3-chlorophenylcarbamate (3Cl-CPC) and cellulose 4-chlorophenylcarbamate (4Cl-CPC) were synthesized by carbanilating reaction of cellulose with 3-chlorophenyl or 4-chlorophenyl isocyanate in a homogeneous solution system. The hydrophobic cellulose derivatives were examined for the solubility and liquid crystallinity in various solvents containing alkoxysilane as a main component. Concentrated (∼40 wt%) solutions of 3Cl-CPC in 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) and those of 4Cl-CPC in a mixed solvent of tetramethoxysilane (TMOS)/N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF)/dichloroacetic acid (DCA) formed a chiral nematic mesophase to impart vivid reflection colors. These liquid crystalline solutions were subjected to a sol–gel conversion process of the respective alkoxysilane components in moist air. In the process for the 4Cl-CPC lyotropic system, we utilized a "surface-coating solvent" consisting of TMOS/phenyltrimethoxysilane/DCA to facilitate the sol–gel reaction of TMOS and also to preserve the reflective coloration. Thereby a left-handed chiral nematic hybrid series of 4Cl-CPC–silica was successfully obtained as a monolithic glassy bulk showing iridescent colors. The 3Cl-CPC/APTMS lyotropics were readily converted into a colored solid form without any coating solution, resulting in production of a right-handed chiral nematic series of 3Cl-CPC–silica. Besides investigating the chiroptical characteristics of the liquid crystalline solutions and hybrids, we preliminarily tried separating a racemic compound into two enantiomers by open column chromatography using the cellulosic–silica hybrids as a filler material of the column.
Synthesis and encapsulation of V(IV,V) compounds in silica nanoparticles targeting development of antioxidant and antiradical nanomaterials

Absorption bands at 567 nm and 590 nm are also indicative of the presence of octahedrally coordinated (group Oh) 2D/3D bulk-like VOx units [69,70]. The disappearance of the absorption band at 414 nm in the spectrum of (V(IV,V)-DPOT)-SiO2 NPs sample indicates that a certain amount of compound 1 molecules are adsorbed onto the SiO2 substrate and contain VO centers interacting with surface oxygen moieties of the silica matrix [71]. Upon determination of intracellular and extracellular reactive oxygen species – specifically superoxide anion radicals (O2−) - levels in the presence of free and SiO2-encapsulated vanadium compounds, the findings revealed a distinct profile for each compound used, depending on the bacterial species employed (Figs. 10–12, Tables S1–S6).
The quest for effective treatments of oxidative stress has concentrated over the years on new nanomaterials with improved antioxidant and antiradical activity, thereby attracting broad research interest. In that regard, research efforts in our lab were launched to pursue such hybrid materials involving a) synthesis of silica gel matrices, b) evaluation of the suitability of atoxic matrices as potential carriers for the controlled release of V(IV)(VOSO₄), V(V)(NaVO₃) compounds and a newly synthesized heterometallic lithium-vanadium(IV,V) tetranuclear compound containing vanadium-bound hydroxycarboxylic 1,3-diamine-2-propanol-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (DPOT), and c) investigation of structural and textural properties of silica nanoparticles (NPs) by different and complementary characterization techniques, inquiring into the nature of the encapsulated vanadium species and their interaction with the siloxane matrix, collectively targeting novel antioxidant and antiradical nanomaterials biotechnology. The physicochemical characterization of the vanadium-loaded SiO₂ NPs led to the formulation of optimized material configuration linked to the delivery of the encapsulated antioxidant-antiradical load. Entrapment and drug release studies showed a) the competence of hybrid nanoparticles with respect to encapsulation efficiency of the vanadium compound (concentration dependence), b) congruence with the physicochemical features determined, and c) a well-defined release profile of NP load. Antioxidant properties and the free radical scavenging capacity of the new hybrid materials (containing VOSO₄, NaVO₃, and V-DPOT) were demonstrated through a) 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical, and b) intracellular-extracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) assays, through UV–Visible spectroscopy techniques, collectively showing that the hybrid silica NPs (empty-loaded) could serve as an efficient platform for nanodrug formulations counteracting oxidative stress.
Structural and electro-optical properties of sol-gel processed Cd<inf>2</inf>SnO<inf>4</inf> powder and nanocrystalline films
2017, Thin Solid Films

Depending on the solvent, ligand, and eventually the starting materials that are used in the sol preparation, the molecules may polymerize with different degrees of polymerization. In the case of metal alkoxides, the network-forming reactions take place at relatively low temperatures, and often in solution [31]. This modification increases the size of the structural units in the solution and gel network.
Cadmium stannate powder and polycrystalline thin films were prepared from chelate-based sol gel chemistry and crystallized at different temperatures in preheated tube furnace. The films were further annealed at 680 °C in nitrogen for 1 h. These powders and films were characterized for their structural evolution. The crystallinity and phase purity of powders and films were particularly sensitive to firing and annealing temperatures, firing ambient, and the level of cadmium in the starting precursor system. Deviations in the Cd content of the powder and film were principally due to metallic cadmium volatilization. The adverse effect of cadmium loss during CTO processing is typically circumvented by providing excess cadmium. The effect of several variables on crystallization behavior of CTO powder and film was investigated to determine the best conditions for preparing monophasic spinel phase as it is known to give the best electro-optical properties. An optimized firing profile for CTO films was developed. A pyrolysis step at 500 °C was crucial to the preparation of Cd₂SnO₄ thin film with good electro-optical properties.
Fabrication of microporous amorphous silica glass by pyrolysis of phenyl groups intercalated in sol-gel derived phenyl-modified silica glass
2010, Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids
Microporous silica glass is fabricated by the thermal decomposition of intercalated phenyl groups in the sol–gel derived phenyl-modified silica glass prepared from the mixtures of tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) and phenyltriethoxysilane (PTES). A heat treatment in air at 600 °C for 4 h completely eliminates the phenyl groups intercalated in the glass matrix, as confirmed by the TG–DTA, XRD, and FT-IR measurements. The nitrogen adsorption of calcined phenyl-modified silica glass reflects the formation of ångström-scale micropore. These results suggest that the intercalated phenyl groups can be used as a “porogen” in the rigid siloxane bonding networks. The size of the micropore is estimated by the t-plot method, which the size of generated micropore agreed with the molecular dimension of a template phenyl. The total volume of the micropore increases with the molar fraction of PTES until it reaches 40%. Above this value of the molar fraction of PTES, the total volume of the micropore is irrespective of the molar fraction of PTES. This saturation in the total volume of the micropore is considered as a result of the collapse and/or shrinkage of the siloxane skeleton structure after heat treatment.
