Surface and porosity of nanocrystalline boehmite xerogels [PDF]
Boehmite xerogels are prepared by hydrolysis of Al(OC4H9)3 followed by peptization with HNO3 (H+/Al = 0, 0.07, 0.2). XRD and TEM show that these gels are made of nanosized crystals (5–9 nm in width and 3 nm thick).

Superfast Synthesis of Carbon Xerogels
Carbon xerogels (CXs) provide unique opportunities for numerous applications in the areas of adsorption, separation, insulation, catalysis, and electrochemistry, but their use is hampered by time- and energy-intensive synthesis protocols. Synthesis protocols may require several days or more. Here, we report the synthesis of CXs requiring only 5 h using

Structure and Properties of the Xerogels Based on Potassium Silicate Liquid Glass and Urea
The xerogels based on the aqueous solutions of urea in potassium silicate liquid glass (PSLG) were produced by CO2 bubbling and investigated. The structure and chemical composition of the obtained materials were analyzed.

Stable hydrosols for TiO2 coatings [PDF]
The optimum processing parameters required to synthesize, by hydrolysis of titanium isopropoxide (TIP), highly stable hydrosols composed of nanoparticles of the smallest possible size, are deduced both from data available in literature and from our own ...

Hydrophobization of Monolithic Resorcinol-Formaldehyde Xerogels by Means of Silylation
In materials research, the control of wettability is important for many applications. Since they are typically based on phenolics, organic aerogels, and xerogels are intrinsically hydrophilic in nature, and examples of the chemical functionalization of ...

Carbon Gels–Green Graphene Composites as Metal-Free Bifunctional Electro-Fenton Catalysts
The Electro-Fenton (EF) process has emerged as a promising technology for pollutant removal. However, the EF process requires the use of two catalysts: one acting as an electrocatalyst for the reduction of oxygen to H2O2 and another Fenton-type catalyst ...

Catalytic coatings on steel for low-temperature propane prereforming to solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) application [PDF]
Catalyst layers (4–20 lm) of rhodium (1 wt%) supported on alumina, titania, and ceria–zirconia (Ce0.5Zr0.5O2) were coated on stainless-steel corrugated sheets by dip-coating in very stable colloidal dispersions of nanoparticles in water.
