Abstract
Silica hydrogels show fractal properties corresponding with DLCAA or R LCCA. During aging silica is redistributed, resulting in reinforcement of the tenuous structure and only slightly disturbing fractal geometr y. In zeolitic precursors no mass-fractals are present, but SAXS spect ra show strong indications for the presence of surface-fractals. Compu ter simulations do confirm the experimental results.
