| | Silica gel Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | white to off-white powder | | Chemical Properties | Amorphous silica, the noncrystalline form of SiO2, is a transparent to gray, odorless, amorphous powder | | Occurrence | Silica gels are dispersions of colloidal silica obtained by a sol–gel process. The process consists in precipitating colloidal silica from an aqueous solution of sodium silicate by adding
hydrochloric or sulfuric acid. The colloidal precipitate or gel consists mainly of hydrated
silica (SiO2
.nH2
O). After filtration the precipitated silica is washed in order to remove residual salts and stabilized by adding ammonia or sodium hydroxide. The stabilized gel is then
dried and later calcined to obtain an activated material, usually in the form of small beads. | | Uses | Silica Gel, 40-63 Micron Particles (cas# 112926-00-8) is a compound useful in organic synthesis. | | Uses | Silica gel was used to compare MCM-41 type mesoporous adsorbents. | | Uses | Silica gel was used on glass plates for preparative TLC and on aluminium sheets for analytical TLC. Silica gel was used in vacuum chromatography and TLC. Silica gel was used in column chromatography. | | Definition | A gel made by coagulating
sodium silicate sol. The gel is dried by heatheating
and used as a catalyst support and as a
drying agent. The silica gel used in desiccators
and in packaging to remove moisture
is often colored with a cobalt salt to indicate
whether it is still active (blue=dry;
pink=moist). | | Definition | A rigid gel made by coagulatinga sol of sodium silicate andheating to drive off water. It is usedas a support for catalysts and also asa drying agent because it readily absorbsmoisture from the air. The gelitself is colourless but, when used indesiccators, etc., a blue cobalt salt isadded. As moisture is taken up, thesalt turns pink, indicating that thegel needs to be regenerated (by heating). | | General Description | Silica gel is a rigid 3D network of colloidal silica. It is exclusively used as a support material for the active titanium(III) centers in Ziegler-Natta catalysts. Silica gel allows a controlled fragmentation lresulting in the formation of uniform polymer particles with narrow particle size distribution and high bulk density. Silica gel is classified as below:
a. Aquagel - pores are filled with water
b. Xerogel - by the process of evaporation, aqueous phase in the pores are removed
c. Aerogel - solvent removed by supercritical extraction | | Agricultural Uses | A hard granular hygroscopic form of hydrated silica is
called silica gel. It is made by heating a coagulated sol of
sodium silicate. It is used as a catalyst and a desiccant. | | Synthesis | A method for preparing a stabilized high thermal conductivity silicone gel, comprising the steps of: S1: mixing 95g of divinyl polydimethylsiloxane with a viscosity of 500 mPa-s and 0.002g of platinum complex of divinyltetramethyldisiloxane homogeneously to obtain an A-gel; mixing 75g of divinyl polydimethylsiloxane with a viscosity of 1,000 mPa-s, 8.2g of telomeric methyl side hydrogen silicone oil, 3g end-containing hydrogen silicone oil, 0.0003g ethynyl cyclohexanol were mixed homogeneously to obtain B glue; S2: 3g polyamide wax powder prepared in Preparation Example 1, 8g montmorillonite clay, 1.0g propylene glycol alginate, 1.6g hydroxymethylcellulose, 2210g heat-conducting powder, and 70g flame retardant were mixed and stirred for 20min at a temperature of 25C and a rotational speed of 700r/min, to obtain the mixture. Mixing and stirring for 20min to obtain the mixture; S3: first, 50g of A glue and 25g of B glue were mixed and stirred uniformly for 1.5h at a temperature of 30C and a rotational speed of 20r/min, then mixed and stirred uniformly with the mixture for 1.5h at a temperature of 30C and a rotational speed of 20r/min, and then defoamed for 5min under a vacuum environment to obtain the silica gel; Wherein, the thermally conductive powder in step S2 includes 527 g of spherical alumina, 102 g of boron nitride, and 1581 g of spherical aluminum nitride with powder diameters all of 0.5 m; the flame retardant in step S2 includes 46 g of magnesium hydroxide, 18.4 g of methylsilicone resin, and 6.9 g of polybis(tricyclohexanemethanamine) dihydroaluminum phosphate salt. | | Potential Exposure | Amorphous fumed silica is used as a mineral, natural or synthetic fiber. A potential danger to those involved in the production and handling of fumed silica for paint pigments or catalysts. Diatomaceous earth is used in clarifying liquids, in manufacture of fire brick and heat insulators; used as a filtering agent; as a filler in construction materials; pesticides, paints, and varnishes. A potential danger to those involved in mining of diatomaceous earth or fabrication of products there from. | | Purification Methods | Before use as a drying agent, silica gel is heated in an oven, then cooled in a desiccator. Conditions in the literature range from heating at 110o for 15hours to 250o for 2-3hours. Silica gel has been purified by washing with hot acid (in one case successively with aqua regia, conc HNO3, then conc HCl; in another case it was digested overnight with hot conc H2SO4), followed by exhaustive washing with distilled water (one week in a Soxhlet apparatus has also been used), and prolonged oven drying. Alternatively, silica gel has been extracted with acetone until all soluble material was removed, then dried in a current of air, washed with distilled water and oven dried. Silica gel has also been washed successively with water, M HCl, water, and acetone, then activated at 110o for 15hours. Silicon monoxide [10097 -28 -6] M 44.1, m > 1700o, d 4 2.18. Purify the monoxide by sublimation in a porcelain tube in a furnace at 1250o (4hours) in a high vacuum (10-4mm) in a stream of N2. It is obtained as brownish black scales.

Generally unreactive chemically. Incompatible with fluorine, oxygen difluoride, chlorine trifluoride. Soluble in molten alkalis and reacts with most metallic oxides at high temperature. | | Toxics Screening Level | The initial threshold screening level (ITSL) for Silica gel is 60 μg/m3 based on an 8-hour averaging time. | | Waste Disposal | Sanitary landfill. |
