1. Sol-gel process: a simple method for producing porous materials
1.1 Discoveries and barriers to technology transfer
In 1846, when Jacques Joseph Elbemen reported the discovery of silicon products derived from the combination of silicic acid with ethers or silicon chloride with alcohols , in these words:
"All you have to do is pour silicon chloride into excess alcohol, and leave the liquid in damp air: it solidifies into a transparent mass that exhales a strongly acidic odor for several months. The product eventually becomes opaline, but regains...
