To fabricate dental nanocomposites containing finely dispersed silica nanoparticles, nearly monodispersed silica nanoparticles smaller than 25 nm were synthesized without forming any aggregates via a modified sol-gel process. Since silica nanoparticles synthesized by the Stober method formed aggregates when the particle size is smaller than 25 nm, the synthetic method was modified by changing the reaction temperature and adding poly(1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidinone) (PVP) to the reaction mixture. The size of the formed silica nanoparticles was reduced by increasing the reaction temperature or adding PVP. Furthermore, the formation of aggregates with primary silica nanoparticles smaller than 25 nm was prevented by increasing the amount of PVP added to the reaction mixture. To enhance the dispersion of the silica particles in an organic matrix, the synthesized silica nanoparticles were treated with 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane ($\gamma$-MPS). A dental nanocomposite containing finely dispersed silica nanoparticles could be produced by using the surface-treated silica nanoparticles.

In order to synthesize monodispersed spherical silica fine particles, we investigated the reaction of hydrolysis of 0.05∼4.0 mole Si(OC2H5)4-0.01∼7.60mole NH3 -0.24∼38.40 mole H2O-2.62∼16.88mole C2H5OH systems. The range of the composition of solution which spherical silica particles were formed was enlarged according to an increase in concentration of Si(OC2H5)4. Larger particles were obtained at higher molar ratios of Si(OC2H5)4/C2H5OH, NH3/H2O and H2O/Si(OC2H5)4 and at a lower reaction temperature.

From the formation of the monodispersed silica particle which is a valuable for the industry by Sol-Gel process, the effects of the parameters participated in the process, the growth mechanism and the characteristics of silica particles for each rection conditions are investigated. To investigate about the formation of final silica particles, the suspension which performs the polymerization is reacted with molybdic acid, and the evolutions of TEOS and silica particle size are investigated in the reaction time ？ 새 the characteristics of molybdic acid with the suspension. From the results, a constant number of silica particle is formed at early reaction stage. Silica particles grow through the aggregation of smaller particles and nucleation is rate-limiting step for the growth of particles. In the conditions of this study, spherical silica particles are formed, [NH$_3$] and [$H_2O$] concentration increase the particle size but particle size decrease with [$H_2O$] concentration which is a certain above region. Average particle sizes are 187.4~483.3 nm and standard deviations in the average particle size are 1.7~2.9% with each experimental condition. From the BET results, specific surface area is 5.5~23.4 $m^2$/g and these values decrease with increase size. The average pore size is 50~70$\AA$.

The sol-gel method is the simplest method for synthesizing monodispersed silica particles. The purpose of this study is to synthesize uniform, monodisperse spherical silica nanoparticles using tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) as the silica precursor, ethanol, and deionized water in the presence of ammonia as a catalyst. The reaction time and temperature and the concentration of the reactants are controlled to investigate the effect of the reaction parameters on the size of the synthesized particles. The size and morphology of the obtained silica particles are investigated using transmission electron microscopy and particle size analysis. The results show that monodispersed silica particles over a size range of 54-504 nm are successfully synthesized by the sol-gel method without using any additional process. The nanosized silica particles can be synthesized at higher TEOS/$H_2O$ ratios, lower ammonia concentrations, and especially, higher reaction temperatures.

$St\"{o}ber$ process를 이용하여 단분산 콜로이드 실리카를 제조하였다. 초기물질인 TEOS(Tetraethylorthosilicate)와 $NH_4OH$, 에탄올 및 증류수의 함유량을 조절하여 100 nm급, 200 nm급, 300 nm급 크기의 단분산 실리카 입자를 제조할 수 있었고, 제조된 실리카 입자는 Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM) 및 laser scattering particle analyzer를 통해 관찰하였다. Dipcoating 공정을 이용하여 제조된 300 nm 크기의 콜로이드 실리카의 자기 배열성(self-assembly) 형성에 관한 연구를 진행하였다. 다양한 코팅 공정 변수(표면장력, 표면전하, 입자의 함유량)의 조절을 통하여 dip coating시에 자기 배열성 단층막(monolayer)을 형성해 낼 수 있는 조건을 최적화하였고, SEM으로 관찰해 본 결과, 최적 조건 상태에서 비교적 넓은 영역 (1.5 mm ${\times}$ 1.5 mm)에서 hexagonally ordered packing된 콜로이드 입자 결정 단층막을 얻을 수 있었다.

Monodispersed $SiO_2/ZnO$ composite fine powders were prepared by Sol-Gel processing and their surface electrical and UV absorbance properties were investigated. Pseudomorph ZnO fine powders were microcapsuled by $SiO_2/ZnO$ sol fabricated using TEOS[tetraethylorthosilicate, purity 98% and ethanol as a solvent with $NH_3$ catalyst. The effects of experimental parameters such as molar ratio of starting materials on the final particle size and shape of $SiO_2/ZnO$ composite fine powder were discussed. As a result, we could controlled the size of monodispersed $SiO_2/ZnO$ composite fine powders without agglomeration, as well as the good dispersibility in aquous solution. The prepared powders were observed to have the mean particle sizes of $0.26-0.78{\mu}m$ with standard deviations of $0.020-0.063{\mu}m$.

Monodispersed spherical silica-coated ceria nanoparticles were prepared through a sol-gel process using tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) and ceria fine particles. In this process, ceria fine particles were also prepared from cerium nitrate. The mean size of ceria particles was 300nm. Silica nanoparticles with narrow particle size distribution were prepared by controlled hydrolysis of TEOS solution. The silica sols were obtained by peptization, the process of redispersing a coagulated colloid, and were coated on ceria particles by the control of the weight ratio of silica/ceria and the pH of the mixture in aqueous solution. The morphologies of particles were characterized with scaning electron microscopy(SEM), transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and atomic force microscopy(AFM). The coating thickness of silica particles obtained by using this method was controlled in the range of 30 - 70nm.

High efficiency particulate air (HEPA) 필터를 시험하기 위하여 단분산 polystyrene latex spheres (PLS) 및 PS-MPS/실리카복합 나노구체가 이용되었다. 사용된 모든 나노구체들은 필터시험 전에 평균입경과 변동계수 값을 측정하여 시험용 인조먼지로서 적정함을 평가하였다. PLS 및 복합 나노구체의 입경은 유화중합 중 반응온도와 안정제의 양을 조절하여 100~300 nm 범위에서 잘 조절되었으며, 변동계수의 경우도 단분산 입자분포로 판단되는 15%보다 낮은 3~7% 범위이었다. 한편 HEPA 필터시험 결과는 사용된 모든 나노구체들이 공기필터의 시험을 위한 시험용 인조먼지로서 아주 적절함을 보여주었다.
