Cov hmoov txhuas silicate ua los ntawm cov tshuaj yog tsim los ntawm cov txheej txheem tshuaj lom neeg. Piv txwv li, txoj kev sol-gel cuam tshuam nrog kev sib xyaw cov ntsev txhuas (piv txwv li, txhuas nitrate) nrog silicon-muaj cov khoom ua ntej (xws li tetraethyl orthosilicate) hauv cov kua dej. Qhov kev sib xyaw no tsim cov gel, uas tom qab ntawd qhuav thiab calcined ntawm qhov kub siab (800 - 1200 ° C) los tsim cov hmoov zoo. Hydrothermal synthesis yog lwm txoj hauv kev, qhov twg cov khoom siv raw cuam tshuam nyob rau hauv qhov siab siab thiab kub hauv dej, ua rau muaj kev tswj hwm meej ntawm qhov loj me ntawm cov khoom me me thiab morphology.

Cov hmoov silicate txhuas muaj kev ruaj khov zoo heev, nrog rau qhov chaw yaj tshaj 1600 ° C, ua rau nws tsim nyog rau kev siv kub siab. Nws cov tshuaj lom neeg tiv taus corrosion los ntawm feem ntau cov kua qaub thiab alkalis, thaum nws cov thermal conductivity qis muab kev rwb thaiv tsev zoo heev. Qhov loj me ntawm cov hmoov, xws li sub - micrometer mus rau ntau micrometers, cuam tshuam rau nws cov reactivity thiab dispersibility. Cov kev hloov kho saum npoo, kho nrog silanes lossis polymers, txhim kho kev sib raug zoo nrog lwm cov ntaub ntawv.

Hauv cov khoom siv ua los ntawm av nplaum, nws ua haujlwm ua cov khoom tseem ceeb hauv cov khoom siv av nplaum, cov khoom siv pob zeb, thiab cov khoom siv hluav taws xob uas tsis kub, txhim kho lub zog kho tshuab thiab txo qhov nthuav dav thermal. Piv txwv li, hauv cov ntaub thaiv qhov cub, cov khoom siv hluav taws xob uas ua los ntawm txhuas silicate tiv taus qhov kub txog li 1800 ° C. Hauv kev tsim ntawv, nws ua haujlwm ua cov xim pleev xim, txhim kho qhov ci, qhov tsis pom kev, thiab kev luam tawm tau. Kev lag luam tshuaj pleev ib ce siv nws ua cov khoom sau rau hauv cov hmoov thiab cov tshuaj pleev ib ce, muab cov qauv du thiab cov khoom nqus roj.
