Synthesis and Characterization of Hydrophobic Silica Aerogel by Two Step(Acid-Base) Sol-Gel Process

The silica aerogel was prepared by the acid–base sol–gel polymerization of tetraethylorthosilicate precursor followed by ambient pressure drying. The prepared silica aerogels were characterized by Fourier transform infrared )FT-IR(, Thermo-gravimetric and differential thermal analysis )TG/DTA(, X-ra...
