Influence of Monomer Connectivity, Network Flexibility, and Hydrophobicity on the Hydrothermal Stability of Organosilicas

Abstract: It is generally assumed that the hydrothermal stability of organically modified silica networks is promoted by high monomer connectivity, network flexibility, and the presence of hydrophobic groups in the network. In this study a range of organosilica compositions is synthesized to explore the extent to which these factors play a role in the hydrothermal dissolution of these materials. Compositions were synthesized from hexafunctional organically bridged silsesquioxanes (OR1)3Si–R–Si(OR1)3 (R = −CH2–, –C2H4–, … Show more

“…This indicates that for such long organic segments their overall exposure does not depend on their configuration. The lower water uptake in MTMS-derived material with smaller organic groups as compared to PTMS-derived material can be explained by the reported lower hydroxyl concentration of the MTMS-derived material [5].…”

“…An overview of all deconvolutions is shown in supplementary material published online. 59 The condensation degrees indicate the as-prepared state without thermal consolidation and reflect intrinsic as well as processing-dependent material properties. From these condensation degrees the hydroxyl concentration and actual connectivity (number of siloxane bonds per monomer) were calculated.…”
