Tailoring of Boehmite-Derived Aluminosilicate Aerogel Structure and Properties: Influence of Ti Addition

Aluminosilicate aerogels offer potential for extremely low thermal conductivities at temperatures greater than 900 C, beyond where silica aerogels reach their upper temperature limits. Aerogels have been synthesized at various Al:Si ratios, including mullite compositions, using Boehmite (AlOOH) as the Al source, and tetraethoxy orthosilicate as the Si precursor. The Boehmite-derived aerogels are found to form by a self-assembly process of AlOOH crystallites, with Si-O groups on the surface of an alumina skeleton. Morphology, surface area and pore size varies with the crystallite size of the starting Boehmite powder, as well as with synthesis parameters. Ternary systems, including Al-Si-Ti aerogels incorporating a soluble Ti precursor, are possible with careful control of pH. The addition of Ti influences sol viscosity, gelation time pore structure and pore size distribution, as well as phase formation on heat treatment.

Molecular Mechanisms of Sorbed Ion Effects during Boehmite Particle Aggregation

Classical theories of particle aggregation, such as Derjaguin–Landau–Verwey–Overbeek (DLVO), do not explain recent observations of ion-specific effects or the complex concentration dependence for aggregation. Thus, here, we probe the molecular mechanisms by which selected alkali nitrate ions (Na + , K + , and NO 3 –) influence aggregation of the mineral boehmite (γ-AlOOH) nanoparticles. Nanoparticle aggregation was analyzed using classical molecular dynamics (CMD) simulations coupled with the metadynamics rare event approach for stoichiometric surface terminations of two boehmite crystal faces. Calculated free energy landscapes reveal how electrolyte ions alter aggregation on different crystal faces relative to pure water. Consistent with experimental observations, we find that adding an electrolyte significantly reduces the energy barrier for particle aggregation (~3–4×). However, in this work, we show this is due to the ions disrupting interstitial water networks, and that aggregation between stoichiometric (010) basal–basal surfaces is more favorable than between (001) edge–edge surfaces (~5–6×) due to the higher interfacial water densities on edge surfaces. The interfacial distances in the interlayer between aggregated particles with electrolytes (~5–10 Å) are larger than those in pure water (a few Ångströms). Together, aggregation/disaggregation in salt solutions is predicted to be more reversible due to these lower energy barriers, but there is uncertainty on the magnitudes of the energies that lead to aggregation at the molecular scale. By analyzing the peak water densities of the first monolayer of interstitial water as a proxy for solvent ordering, we find that the extent of solvent ordering likely determines the structures of aggregated states as well as the energy barriers to move between them. Further, the results suggest a path for developing a molecular-level basis to predict the synergies between ions and crystal faces that facilitate aggregation under given solution conditions. Such fundamental understanding could be applied extensively to the aggregation and precipitation utilization in the biological, pharmaceutical, materials design, environmental remediation, and geological regimes.

Radiation-Induced Interfacial Hydroxyl Transformation on Boehmite and Gibbsite Basal Surfaces

Understanding the radiolytic reactivity of aluminum oxyhydroxide phases widely present in stored nuclear wastes is essential to develop reliable processing approaches. Recent experiments using vibrational sum frequency generation (VSFG), a surface sensitive technique, have shown that rehydration of γ-irradiated boehmite (010) and gibbsite (001) surfaces does not recover the initial hydroxyl density prior to irradiation. In this study, using density functional theory and nudged elastic band calculations, we examine dehydration and rehydration of these surfaces and attendant proton transfer mechanisms. While dehydration of both surfaces is predicted to be energetically unfavorable, rehydration of boehmite (010) is favorable after overcoming an energy barrier of 0.52 eV that relates to the orientation of surface hydroxyls controlling the hydrogen bonding network of adsorbed water. In the case of gibbsite (001), for which the experimental results suggest that rehydration mainly involves the reformation of interlayer hydroxyls, we found that a two-proton transfer mechanism is more likely than a one-proton transfer mechanism, and that it prevents the reorientation of interlayer hydroxyls into intralayer hydroxyls consistent with experimental VSFG findings. A detailed analysis of the effect of surface hydrogen vacancy on the strength of hydrogen bond interactions was performed, which indicates that H 2 and H 2 O are the energetically most favorable product species to form from radiation-induced surface H and/or OH defects.

Electron-Stimulated Formation and Release of Molecular Hydrogen and Oxygen from Boehmite Nanoplatelet Films

Here, the production and release of H 2 and O 2 during and after electron (100–1000 eV) irradiation of boehmite nanoplatelet films was studied. H 2 and O 2 produced during irradiation likely correspond to electron-induced dissociation of the hydroxyls primarily in the terminal surface layers of the boehmite followed by the H· + H· → H 2 (g) and O + O → O 2 (g) combinative desorption reactions as well as the abstraction reactions H· + >OH – → H 2 (g) + >O·̅. Postirradiation temperature-programmed desorption shows a temperature-dependent release of H 2 but no additional release of O 2 . This process likely involves diffusion and recombination of H· atoms initially trapped between the γ-AlOOH planes followed by recombination at edge and surface sites. H 2 production upon thermal-annealing-irradiated material shows no dependence on incident electron flux, suggesting the precursor species (H·) trapped within the bulk are long-lived.

Frustrated Coulombic and Cation Size Effects on Nanoscale Boehmite Aggregation: A Tumbler Small- and Ultra-Small-Angle Neutron Scattering Study

To better understand the effects of solution chemistry on particle aggregation in the complex legacy tank wastes at the Hanford (WA) and Savannah River (SC) sites, we have performed a series of tumbler small- and ultra-small-angle neutron scattering experiments on 20 wt % solid slurries of nanoparticulate aluminum oxyhydroxide (boehmite) with M 1+ nitrates of various concentrations and radii. In this study, the solutes consisted of H, Li, Na, K, and Rb nitrates at 10 –5 , 10 –3 , 10 –1 , 2, and 4 molal (m) concentrations, as well as in pure H 2 O. Synthetic boehmite nanoparticles were used with a size range from ~20 to 30 nm. Tumbler cells were used to keep the solids from settling. Although particles initially form individual rhombohedral platelets, once placed in solution, they quickly form well-bonded stacks, primary aggregates, up to ~1500 Å long, and a second level of aggregates whose concentration and structure vary as a function of cation type and concentration. Aggregation generally increases with increased solute concentration and with cation radius up to a concentration somewhat above 10 –1 m, at which point the trend reverses. Primary aggregates become more rodlike and larger. The Kirkwood-like reversal probably reflects a change from Derjaguin–Landau–Verwey–Overbeek (DLVO)/Debye behavior controlled by surface chemistry to a frustrated Coulombic system controlled by the solution structure. These data suggest that an understanding of the effects of salt concentration and chemistry on nanoparticle aggregate structures provides useful physical insights into the microscopic origin of slurry rheology in the Hanford and Savannah River legacy wastes.

pH dependent reactivity of boehmite surfaces from first principles molecular dynamics

pH dependent interfacial chemistry depends upon the distribution and respective pKa values of different surface active sites. This is highly relevant to the chemistry of nanoparticle morphologies that expose faces with varying surface termination. Recent synthetic advances for nanoparticles of various minerals, including AlO(OH) (boehmite), present an excellent opportunity to compare and contrast predicted surface pKa on low Miller index planes so as to reinterpret reported interfacial properties (i.e., point of zero charge – PZC) and reactivity. This work employs ab initio molecular dynamics and empirical models to predict site-specific pKa values of accurate (benchmarked) surface models of boehmite. Using the different surface site populations, the PZC is determined and the influence this has upon reported interfacial chemistry is described.

Structural and Spectroscopic Properties of Butanediol-Modified Boehmite Materials

Glycoboehmite (GB) materials are synthesized by a solvothermal reaction to form layered aluminum oxyhydroxide (boehmite) modified by intercalated butanediol molecules. These hybrid materials offer a platform to design materials with potentially novel sorption, wetting, and catalytic properties. Several synthetic methods have been used, resulting in different structural and spectroscopic properties, but atomistic detail is needed to determine the interlayer structure to explore the synthetic control of GB materials. Here, in this study, we use classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to compare the structural properties of GB interlayers containing chemisorbed butanediol molecules as a function of diol loading. Accompanying quantum (density functional theory, DFT) static calculations and MD simulations are used to validate the classical model and compute the infrared spectra of various models. Classical MD results reveal the existence of two unique interlayer environments at higher butanediol loading, corresponding to smaller (cross-linked) and expanded interlayers. DFT-computed infrared spectra reveal the sensitivity of the aluminol O–H stretch frequencies to the interlayer environment, consistent with the spectrum of the synthesized material. Insight from these simulations will aid in the characterization of the newly synthesized GB materials.

Influence of Boehmite Precursor on Aluminosilicate Aerogel Pore Structure, Phase Stability and Resistance to Densification at High Temperatures

Aluminosilicate aerogels are of interest as constituents of thermal insulation systems for use at temperatures higher than those attainable with silica aerogels. It is anticipated that their effectiveness as thermal insulators will be influenced by their morphology, pore size distribution, physical and skeletal densities. The present study focuses on the synthesis of aluminosilicate aerogel from a variety of Boehmite (precursors as the Al source, and tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) as the Si source, and the influence of starting powder on pore structure and thermal stability.

Thermal Dehydration of Aluminum (Oxy)hydroxides on Fuel Cladding Material - 20200

The aluminum cladding of research-reactor fuel undergoes general corrosion with resulting formation of adherent aluminum (oxy)hydroxide films during in-reactor and post-discharge exposure to water under various conditions and temperatures. These (oxy)hydroxides contain chemically-bound water that poses challenges for extended dry storage due to the risk of thermal or radiolytic decomposition releasing free water and/or hydrogen and oxygen gases. This study comprised laboratory experiments of thermal drying behavior of aluminum (oxy)hydroxides to identify approaches for reducing bound water on fuel cladding prior to sealed dry storage. Effective drying strategies for adherent (oxy)hydroxides on fuel cladding will improve the safety of dry storage by mitigating potential avenues for additional corrosion and/or generation of flammable gases inside the storage canister. This work is part of a broader investigation to address knowledge gaps and technical data needs for dry storage of aluminum-clad spent nuclear fuel (ASNF), which included investigation of (oxy)hydroxide formation on aluminum alloy substrates immersed in water, characterization of service-grown films from ASNF, and radiolytic yield of hydrogen from (oxy)hydroxide powders and films. The current work comprises experimental thermal dehydration of aluminum trihydroxides (bayerite and gibbsite) characteristic of low-temperature (<80 deg. C) corrosion in water and aluminum oxyhydroxide (boehmite) characteristic of high temperature (>80 deg. C) corrosion in water. First, commercially produced (oxy)hydroxide powders (boehmite and gibbsite) were tested via thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The effort aimed to identify or confirm key temperature ranges/thresholds for the thermal decomposition reactions, as well as impacts of ramp rate and hold times, for drying of isolated, high-surface-area (oxy)hydroxides. The information gleaned from powder tests was used to guide subsequent drying tests on adherent (oxy)hydroxide films grown on aluminum alloy substrates. TGA was used to analyze small samples of the aluminum coupons with adherent (oxy)hydroxide films. Specimens were characterized both pre- and post-drying using X-ray diffraction (XRD) to determine the film composition and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to determine its morphology. Drying of adherent (oxy)hydroxide films was anticipated to pose additional complications relative to drying of (oxy)hydroxide powders. Anticipated challenges include achieving sufficient drying of the (oxy)hydroxide at low-enough temperature to avoid melting or other undesirable phase changes in the aluminum substrate and overcoming transport limitations of water through the thickness of a dense film or through a tortuous pore structure to reach the outer surface of the film. Inn addition, dehydration of (oxy)hydroxides significantly changes the film density, which may lead to substantial alterations in the morphology, including potential cracking and spalling of the film. TGA/DSC tests of gibbsite powders resulted in successful conversion to boehmite or alumina, depending on the maximum temperature reached. At low ramp rates (≤5 deg. C/min), the conversion to boehmite occurred around 300 deg. C (210-340 deg. C). XRD confirmed that boehmite was the only phase detected after tests reaching 450 deg. C. The transition to alumina occurred around 510 deg. C (470-550 deg. C), with XRD detecting only alumina after tests reaching at least 600 deg. C. Boehmite powders dehydrated to alumina at about 400 deg. C (330-460 deg. C) for coarse (77-μm particle diameter) powder and about 490 deg. C (420-520 deg. C) for fine (0.7-μm particle diameter) powder. For all powders tested, the maximum percent mass loss after drying to high temperature slightly exceeded the theoretical mass loss for complete dehydration of the stoichiometric (oxy)hydroxide to alumina, which is likely attributable to physisorbed water in the powder. Drying of a thick (∼8.6 μm), predominantly bayerite adherent film displayed a dramatic change in film morphology, with the initially continuous trihydroxide film cracking into sections on the order of 50 μm square and partially delaminating. The outermost layer of the film completely faked of in some regions. The layer exposed under the spalled oxide also displayed prominent cracking, with spacing on the order of 10 μm, but this surface layer appeared to remain completely adhered to the aluminum substrate. TGA showed mass losses per unit surface area up to ∼1.0 mg/cm{sup 2}. XRD characterization of the remaining oxide was inconclusive, with no crystalline phases detected. (authors)

Correlating inter-particle forces and particle shape to shear-induced aggregation/fragmentation and rheology for dilute anisotropic particle suspensions: A complementary study via capillary rheometry and in-situ small and ultra-small angle X-ray scattering

Predicting the stability of suspensions composed of anisotropic particles is difficult due to the complexity and interplay of hydrodynamic and colloidal forces. For example, it is not well understood how non-spherical particle shapes affect suspension-rheological responses. This study presents evidence showing how the stacking of boehmite platelets dispersed in aqueous solution leads to moderate shear thinning, even at low boehmite mass fractions. Wide angle X-ray, small angle X-ray, and ultra-small angle X-ray scattering were used to simultaneously monitor changes to the size and fractal dimensions of boehmite aggregates from 6 – 10,000 Å as the sample was recirculated through an in situ capillary rheometer. The latter also provided simultaneous measurements of the viscosity of the suspensions. Computational fluid dynamics modeling of the apparatus was used to provide a more rigorous analysis of the fluid flow. In addition to shear-induced aggregation/fragmentation correlated to a complicated balance between hydrodynamic and colloidal forces, the results indicate that orientationally-dependent interactions, arising from non-spherical boehmite aggregate sub-units, may explain the relatively large experimental viscosity when the hydrodynamic force is small compared to colloidal forces. Ultimately, the results from this study can provide a foundation for future work investigating particle shape effects on colloidal and hydrodynamics forces.

Crystallization and Phase Transformations of Aluminum (Oxy)hydroxide Polymorphs in Caustic Aqueous Solution

Gibbsite, bayerite, and boehmite are important aluminum (oxy)hydroxide minerals in nature and have been widely deployed in various industrial applications. They are also major components in caustic nuclear wastes stored at various U.S. locations. Knowledge of their crystallization and phase transformation processes contributes to understanding their occurrence and could help optimize waste treatment processes. While it has been reported that partial conversion of bayerite and gibbsite to boehmite occurs in basic solutions at elevated temperatures, systematic studies of factors affecting the phase transformation as well as the underlying reaction mechanisms are non-existent, particularly in highly alkaline solutions. We explored the effects of sodium hydroxide concentrations (0.1~3 M), reaction temperature (60~100 ?) and aluminum concentrations (0.1~1 M) on the crystallization and transformation of these aluminum (oxy)hydroxides. Detailed structural and morphological characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometry revealed that these processes depend largely on the reaction temperature and the Al/OH- ratio. When 1 = Al/OH- = 2.5, the reactions favor formation of high crystallinity precipitates, whereas at Al/OH- ratio ? 2.5 precipitation ceases unless the Al concentration is higher than 1 M. We identified pseudoboehmite, bayerite and gibbsite as intermediate phases to bayerite, gibbsite and boehmite, respectively, all of which transform via dissolution-reprecipitation. Gibbsite transforms to boehmite in both acidic and weak caustic environments at temperatures above 80 oC. However, a ‘bar-shaped’ gibbsite morphology dominates in highly caustic environments (3 M NaOH). The findings enable a robust basis for selection of various solid phases by tuning the reaction conditions.

(Oxy)hydroxides Formed on Aluminum Fuel Materials After Irradiation and Long-Term Wet Storage - 20354

The aluminum cladding of research-reactor fuel experiences general corrosion when in contact with water during in-reactor service and post-discharge wet storage, resulting in the formation of adherent aluminum (oxy)hydroxide films. These (oxy)hydroxides contain chemically-bound water that poses challenges for extended dry storage due to the risk of thermal or radiolytic decomposition releasing free water and/or hydrogen and oxygen gases. This study describes characterization of the (oxy)hydroxides present on several aluminum materials used in reactor operation and subsequently stored wet in the L-Basin storage facility at the Savannah River Site (SRS) for an extended period. Characterization data providing insight into the loading, composition, and morphology of (oxy)hydroxides to be expected on service-exposed aluminum cladding provides valuable benchmarks for designing adequate drying and dry-storage approaches. This work is part of a broader investigation to address knowledge gaps and technical data needs for dry storage of aluminum-clad spent nuclear fuel (ASNF), which included in-lab growth of (oxy)hydroxide films on aluminum alloy substrates to investigate formation behavior, investigation of drying methods to remove existing (oxy)hydroxides from ASNF cladding, and measurement of radiolytic yield of hydrogen from (oxy)hydroxide powders and films. In this study, (oxy)hydroxide films were characterized for three aluminum-alloy materials used in reactors and subsequently stored wet for up to approximately 40 years in L-Basin at SRS: one cropping from a Missouri University Research Reactor (MURR) fuel element (Al-6061 alloy), one cropping from a Universal Sleeve Housing (USH) (Al-6063 alloy), and one Mark-16B fuel assembly (either Al-6061 or Al- 6063). The USH and Mark-16B were used in SRS production reactors. Characterization of the as-received (oxy)hydroxides included scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in both plan-view and cross-section to characterize the (oxy)hydroxide layer's morphology, thickness, and structure. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to identify the chemical composition and distinguish between the various aluminum (oxy)hydroxides known to form under reactor and storage conditions. XRD analysis revealed both bayerite (Al(OH)3) and boehmite (AlOOH) on the surface of the MURR and USH samples, as well as bayerite, boehmite, and gibbsite (another Al(OH)3 polymorph) on the surface of the Mark-16B sample. The aluminum trihydroxides, bayerite and gibbsite, are typically associated with corrosion in low-temperature (<80 deg. C) water, while boehmite is expected to form at higher water temperature (>80 deg. C). The presence of bayerite on the USH, which is believed to have operated close to 90 deg. C, suggests that boehmite formed during in-reactor exposure was not protective against further hydroxide growth in low-temperature wet storage. Cross-section scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed total (oxy)hydroxide layer thicknesses of ∼5- 10 μm for the MURR and ∼5-15 μm for the Mark-16B. The thickness of the USH's (oxy)hydroxide layer was indiscernible by the current mounting and imaging method, despite plan-view SEM and XRD confirming the presence of an (oxy)hydroxide layer.

Polymer intercalation synthesis of glycoboehmite nanosheets

In this work, novel materials based on the aluminum oxyhydroxide boehmite phase were prepared using a glycothermal reaction in 1,4-butanediol. Under the synthesis conditions, the atomic structure of the boehmite phase is altered by the glycol solvent in place of the interlayer hydroxyl groups, creating glycoboehmite. The structure of glycoboehmite was examined in detail to determine that glycol molecules are intercalated in a bilayer structure, which would suggest that there is twice the expansion identified previously in the literature. This precursor phase enables synthesis of two new phases that incorporate either polyvinylpyrrolidone or hydroxylpropyl cellulose nonionic polymers. These new materials exhibit changes in morphology, thermal properties, and surface chemistry. All the intercalated phases were investigated using PXRD, HRSTEM, SEM, FT-IR, TGA/DSC, zeta potential titrations, and specific surface area measurement. These intercalation polymers are non-ionic and interact through wetting interactions and hydrogen bonding, rather than by chemisorption or chelation with the aluminum ions in the structure.

In situ liquid SEM imaging analysis revealing particle dispersity in aqueous solutions

A quantitative description on dispersity of boehmite (γ-AlOOH) particles, a key component for waste slurry at Hanford sites, can provide useful knowledge for understanding various physicochemical nature of the waste. In this work, in situ liquid scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to evaluate the dispersity of particles in aqueous conditions using a microfluidic sample holder, System for Analysis at Liquid Vacuum Interface (SALVI). Secondary electron (SE) images and image analyses were performed to determine particle centroid locations and the distance to the nearest neighbour particle centroid, providing reliable rescaled interparticle distances as a function of ionic strength in acidic and basic conditions. Our finding of the particle dispersity is consistent with physical insights from corresponding particle interactions under physicochemical conditions, demonstrating delicate changes in dispersity of boehmite particles based on novel in situ liquid SEM imaging and analysis.
