Nano-silica dispersion having amphiphilic properties and a double-particle structure and its production method

摘要

The present invention provides a nano-silica dispersion having amphiphilic properties and a double-particle structure and its production method. The production method comprises: producing a lipophilically modified nano-silica alcosol which is denoted as a first reaction solution by adding a silane coupling agent containing a lipophilic group to a nano-silica alcosol as a raw material; producing a hydrophilically modified nano-silica alcosol which is denoted as a second reaction solution by adding a silane coupling agent containing a hydrophilic group into a nano-silica alcosol as a raw material; producing the nano-silica dispersion having amphiphilic properties and a double-particle structure by adding 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane to the first reaction solution, stirring, then mixing the resultant with the second reaction solution. The present invention further provides a nano-silica dispersion having amphiphilic properties and a double-particle structure produced by the above production method. It has both hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, and has the double-particle structure, with a particle size of less than 100 nm. The production process is simple and low in cost.
