About this Abstract

Meeting 2009 TMS Annual Meeting & Exhibition Symposium 2009 Functional and Structural Nanomaterials: Fabrication, Properties, and Applications Presentation Title Solution and Low Temperature Synthesis of a Conductive and Porous Metal-Silica Nanocomposite Author(s) Tsan-Yao Chen, Yong-Jae Choi, Tzy-Jiun Mark Luo On-Site Speaker (Planned) Tzy-Jiun Mark Luo Abstract Scope In our effort to control and synthesize metallic nanoparticles that exhibit interconnected 3-D network, we have developed a low temperature and solution procedure to fabricate a porous metal-silica nanocomposite. We used silver as a test model and successfully synthesized a metal-silica nanocomposite that is highly conductive (< 2 ohm-cm), low density (~ 2 g/mL), with low weight percentage of silver (2 ~ 5 wt%). This material is nanoporous in nature and was synthesized using polyethyleneglycol blended sol-gel matrix as structural template. It consisted of three major components: nanoporous silica matrix, pore-filled polymers, and silver ions that were later reduced to interconnected silver network at 160C. Such material will find its applications in fuel cells, biofuel cell, and sensors. Therefore, SEM, XRD, Tapping mode AFM and cyclic voltammetry were utilized to characterize its nanostructure and properties. Proceedings Inclusion? Planned: Other (describe below)
