TLDR
The design of such a filigrane network requires the very careful control of chemical parameters and the reward is an assortment of different property profiles owing to the richness of possible variations.Abstract:
Air, air, air… and some solid skeleton; this is the basis for an interesting class of materials-the aerogels (shown schematically on the right). Can one therefore speak of "simple" chemistry? The design of such a filigrane network requires the very careful control of chemical parameters. The reward is an assortment of different property profiles owing to the richness of possible variations.read more

Silica-titania aerogel monoliths with large pore volume and surface area by ambient pressure drying
TL;DR: The surface area and pore volume of these mixed oxide aerogels are comparable to those of the supercritically dried ones as discussed by the authors, showing densities in the range 0.34-0.38 g/cm3.

Synthesis of titania–silica aerogel-like microspheres by a water-in-oil emulsion method via ambient pressure drying and their photocatalytic properties
TL;DR: In this article, a titania-silica gel microspheres (TSGMs) were synthesized by the sol-gel process in the water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion system of Span 80-Tween 85/n -heptane-n -butanol/titania and silica sols.
