The amounts of reagents were listed in Table 4. After purification, the sample had a carbon content of 4.83% in its dried form. Table 4. [0141]
  • Example 8 (Sorbitol modification on LUDOX HS-40 at 1.7 NM/nm 2 TL, 500 g net SiO2 scale) [0142] A procedure similar to what were described in Examples 1 and 4 were followed, except that larger amounts and large size beakers were used. The amounts of reagents were listed in Table 5.
  • Example 9 (Sugar modification on LUDOX HS-40 at 1.7 NM/nm 2 TL) [0144] To a 20 mL vial containing a magnetic stir bar and 0.9 g of deionized water was added 3 g of 2M methanesulfonic acid with continuous magnetic stirring. The vial was then warmed to 50 °C via water bath, whereafter 7.5 grams of sucrose was added with continuous magnetic stirring and maintained until disappearance of all solids.
  • Reaction Scheme V illustrates the expected reaction (but does not depict the stereochemistry). As shown, sucrose is expected to undergo acidic hydrolysis into D-glucose and D-fructose in the 20 mL vial.
  • Reaction Scheme V only depicts one product of D-glucose reacting with the glycidylsilane and only depicts one product of D-fructose reacting with the glycidylsilane.
  • Example 10 D-glucose modification on LUDOX HS-40 at 1.7 NM/nm 2 TL
  • the procedure of Example 9 was repeated using D-glucose instead of sucrose. After purification, the sample had a carbon content of 4.75% in its dried form.
  • Salt Stability Test of Samples from Examples 9 and 10 [0150] The colloidal stability of samples of Examples 9 and 10 was then evaluated in accordance with the procedure described above in “Salt Stability Test of Examples 1-3, Comparative Example 1 and HS-40 Starting Material” at 80 °C overnight, and using similar protocols also evaluated at pH 2 at 80 °C overnight (where samples were acidified via addition of dilute aqueous hydrochloric acid to pH 2 and any NaCl indicated was added after such acidification). Table 6 below summarizes the stability test results. Table 6.
