The samples were characterized using XRD, BET, TEM, FT-IR, and H2-TPR, re- spectively. The attrition resistance and the FT activity were tested. Si-8-Si-15 catalysts prepared with 8-15 nm silica sol show good attrition resistance （attrition loss 〈 4%）, especially Si-13 with an attrition loss of 1.89%. He- matite appeared in XRD patterns when silica sol above 15 nm is used. TEM micrographs show that no obvious SiO2 particles appear when silica sol particle with size less than 8 nm was used, but SiO2 particles coated with small ferrihydrite particles appear when silica sol above 8 nm was used. Si-O-Si vibration peak in FT-IR spectra increases with increasing silica sol size. Samples prepared with silica sol show good stability of FT reactions, and the average molecular weight of FT products increases with the increase of SiO2 particle.展开更多

A two-dimensional silica nanosphere array is used as a template with a hydrofluoric acid-hydrogen peroxide solution for etching the nanospheres. The initial diameter and distribution of the holes in the resulting porous silicon layer are determined by the size and distribution of the silica nanospheres. The corrosion time can be used to control the depths of the holes. It is found that the presence of a SiO2 layer, formed by the oxidation of the rough internal surface of the hole, is the primary reason allowing the corrosion to proceed. Ultraviolet reflection and thermal conductivity measurements show that the diameter and distribution of the holes have a great influence on properties of the porous silicon.展开更多
