Nn. Khimich et Sv. Stolyar, Effect of acidity of the medium on formation of monolithic silica gels from tetramethoxysilane by sol-gel method, RUS J AP CH, 71(10), 1998, pp. 1690-1694
The influence varying the acidity of the medium on the rate of hydrolysis a
nd polycondensation of tetramethoxysilane under conditions of acid catalysi
s was studied in preparing a monolithic silica gel.
