Influence of vinyltriethoxysilane concentration on structural and luminescent characteristics of cerium doped yttrium based silicate phosphors
2015
Abstract Cerium doped yttrium silicates phosphors (YSO:Ce) were prepared by gel combustion using vinyltriethoxysilane (VTEOS) as silicon sources along with aspartic acid as fuel and yttrium-cerium nitrate as oxidizer. The study presents the influence of VTEOS amount in the synthesis mixture on the structural and luminescent characteristics of silicate phosphors. The understanding of precursor׳s decomposition was achieved on the basis of thermal analysis in association with gas evolved analysis. XRD, FTIR and XPS were used to reveal the structural changes that occur with VTEOS molar amount variation from 1 to 3 mol. It was found that the main crystalline phase was X2-Y 2 SiO 5 . The luminesc…
Film blowing of silane-modified polyethylene
2009
The grafting of vinyltriethoxysilane (VTES) onto polyethylene (PE) with the help of small amounts of peroxides was investigated to film-blow these modified materials. The degree of crosslinking was kept very low to achieve good melt processability and improved mechanical properties. The possibility of obtaining modified PE films with improved properties and regularly distributed crosslinking with a single processing step demonstrates the uniqueness of this study. The additive concentration was established through preliminary studies; with a batch mixer, it was possible to process the modified PE in the film-blowing operation. Water treatment of the modified films after film blowing allowed …
