Title: | Surface Energy and Lewis Acid-base Characteristics of Lignocellulosic Fibers upon Modification by Chemical Vapor Deposition of Trichloromethylsilane: An Inverse Gas Chromatography Study | Authors: | Gamelas, J. A. F. Azpeitia, M. Ferreira, Paulo Tejado, A. |
Keywords: | Lignocellulose; Chemical vapor deposition; Silanization; Inverse gas chromatography; Surface energy; Lewis acid-base character | Issue Date: | 29-May-2018 | Publisher: | Taylor & Francis | Serial title, monograph or event: | Journal of Wood Chemistry and Technology | Volume: | 38 | Issue: | 3 | Place of publication or event: | London | Abstract: | The surface of a thermomechanical pulp (TMP), containing 26 wt% of lignin, was modified by silanization with trichloromethylsilane (TCMS) via chemical vapor deposition, and thoroughly analyzed for its physicochemical properties by inverse gas chromatography (attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy being used as complementary tools). For a 2-min TCMS-treated TMP, a decrease of the dispersive component of the surface energy from 38 to 14 mJ m−2 (at 40°C), and, at the same time, an increase of the Lewis acidic and Lewis basic characters were found. The surface of this sample, modified in a high extent, was similar to that of a bleached kraft pulp (<0.1 wt% of lignin) subjected to the same silanization process, which is suggested as being due, in both cases, to the formation of a methyl-silica coating on the fiber’s surface. The new silanized fibers obtained from cheap TMP can be used for the production of a new generation of biocomposites with a variety of matrices. | Description: | J. A. F. Gamelas, M. Azpeitia, P. J.
