Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Polymer Chemistry

Background:

  • Nano-ceria (CeO2) particles are explored for advanced material applications.
  • Surface modification is key to tailoring nanoparticle properties for specific uses.
  • Developing solvent-free nanofluids is crucial for environmentally friendly material processing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate surface modification of nano-ceria using organo-trimethoxysilanes.
  • To create solvent-free nanofluids from modified nano-ceria.
  • To assess the suitability of these nanofluids for UV-protective films and clear coatings via UV polymerization.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesis of 3nm diameter nano-ceria.
  • Surface decoration with ionic liquid salts and acrylate groups.
  • Ion exchange for anion modification.
  • UV-initiated polymerization with cross-linking agents.

Main Results:

  • A core/shell structured, solvent-free nano-ceria nanofluid was produced.
  • The nanofluid exhibits a low melting point (-10°C) and glass transition (-71°C).
  • UV-polymerized films demonstrated strong UV absorption (α350nm=6.6±0.8cm²/mg, α300nm=24.5±3.5cm²/mg).

Conclusions:

  • Surface-modified nano-ceria can be transformed into effective solvent-free nanofluids.
  • These nanofluids yield high-performance UV-protective films and clear coatings.
  • The developed nano-ceria materials show superior UV protection efficiency compared to previous formulations.
