Mesoporous Silica Film Preparation by Novel Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Organic Templates
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2011
Abstract
Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) technique which enables to fabricate mesoporous film at low temperature has been developed. Meso-structure silica films are prepared by sol-gel process based on the self-organization of surfactant templates, and the organic templates are successfully extracted from the films by supercritical CO2 (sc-CO2) modified with hydrogen peroxide at 80 °C and 19.6 MPa. The extraction process is analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy of the films. In order to discuss the feasibility of such films obtained at low temperature for electronics applications with low dielectric and low dielectric loss, the mechanical properties and the densities of the films are compared with various silica films prepared by different method.
