| Abstract | Surface modified nano-silica was synthesized through a condensation reaction of the silanol groups on the silica surface with 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APS). This primary amine offers a wide range of derivatization options and acts as a linker between a silica surface and many organic species. Quantitation of the results indicated the presence of 3–4 reactive APS groups per nm2 of silica. This implies that the silanol groups present on the surface of the silica have reacted to a high extent. APS-treated silica was further treated with a series of acid anhydrides to yield more stable amidoalkyl and imidoalkyl silica. The modified surfaces were analysed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier-transform infra-red (FT-IR) and solid-state 13C NMR spectroscopy techniques to study the organic content and functional composition. Results indicate that the silica particles functionalized with imidoalkylsiloxane (IASi) have much higher thermal stabilities compared to aminoalkyl functionalized silica. It was also observed that thermal stability of the IASi does not depend on the acid anhydride used for the derivatization of the APS treated silica. Furthermore we used this IASi for the synthesis of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET)–silica nanocomposites. Dynamic mechanical analysis revealed an enhancement of the storage modulus with increasing silica content at ambient temperature as well as above the glass-transition temperature. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
