Abstract

The technique of receiving of nano-silica nanopowders, consisting of nanoparticles with the known size, form, internal and surface structure and physicochemical properties was developed. The degree of hydrophilicity of those powders was determined. The method of the surface modification (hydrophobization) of the received nanoparticles was carried out and was optimized. Replacement of surface OH-groups on the CH3-group was produced by blowing SiCl2(CH3)2 vapor over the modified powders surface. The carbon content of the modified powders reached 3.2 %. The comparison of the hydrophobization process for the nanopowders received by two different origins was carried out. It was shown that the surface modification of Aerosil powders is faster than Tarkosil ones at similar hydrophilicity degree. Also hydrophobiс Aerosil contains more amount of carbon was cleared (up to 5,9 %). The complete replacement of OH-groups on the organic groups on the surface of powders was showed by IR spectroscopy. The representation of the organic groups by several combinations of fragments, rather than just the CH3 was showed
