Synthesis, Characterization, and Properties of POSS-Epoxy

Abstract:

Polyhedral oligemeric silsesquioxanes epoxy (POSS-EP) was prepared from 3-glycidyloxy-propyl-trimethoxysilane (KH-560) and tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) by hydrolytic condensation. POSS-EP was characterized using fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal gravity analysis (TGA) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). When the mass ratio of KH-560 and 25wt% TMAH was 20:1 and the temperature of hydrolytic condensation was 80°C, T8 was the majority and certain a mount of T10. The temperature of POSS-EP in weight loss 5wt% and the maximum degradation rate was approximately 200°C. The residual weight for POSS-EP at 800°C was 33.5wt%. After the cotton fabric was treated with 5wt% POSS-EP by using toluene as solvent, its carbon residue was improved 60 times than untreated .
