Treatment of Fagus orientalis Surface by ZnO/TiO2/FAS-17-Based Nanoparticles
Öz
Aim of study: In this research, the surface of Fagus orientalis (beechwood) was chosen as a substrate due to its widely used strong biostructure in the wood industry. It was functionalized with ZnO, TiO2, and FAS-17 nanoparticles to enhance its service life.
Material and methods: FAS-17 (Trimethoxysilane) and ammonium hexafluorotitanate were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich, and zinc borate from Etimine S.A. Methanol, ethyl alcohol, hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide, and zinc oxide were provided by TEKKIM. Characterization methods included FTIR, TG/DTA, XRD, SEM, and EDX. Hydrophobicity was determined by water contact angle using KSV Cam101. UV-Vis analysis used a Shimadzu UV-160 spectrophotometer, surface roughness was measured with a Marsurf M 300 device (ISO 4287), and color analysis was performed with a Datacolor Elrepho 450 X spectrometer (ASTM 2021).
Main results: The thermal stability of wood was significantly improved through the hydrothermal deposition of ZnO/TiO2 nanoparticles. Additionally, hydrophobization was achieved using Triethoxy-1H,1H,1H,2H,2H,2H-perfluorodecylsilane (C14H19F13O3Si), referred to as FAS-17.
Research highlights: The study demonstrated that the introduction of ZnO/TiO2 nanoparticles improved the thermal stability of wood. Furthermore, the use of FAS-17 resulted in effective hydrophobization. The thermal stability of wood was improved with ZnO/TiO2 nanoparticles. In addition, hydrophobization was supplied by FAS-17.
