Af. Danilyuk et al., SUPERCRITICAL EXTRACTION AS A METHOD FOR MODIFYING THE STRUCTURE OF SUPPORTS AND CATALYSTS, Reaction kinetics and catalysis letters, 63(1), 1998, pp. 193-199
Supercritical solvent extraction has been used for drying of wet gels
in the production of SiO2 monoliths, with methanol and liquid CO2 used
as solvents. The influence of various process parameters and nature o
f the solvent on the structural and mechanical properties of the monol
iths obtained has been studied.
