Abstract

Nano-porous ZrO2 aerogels were prepared with zirconyl nitrate dihydrate (ZrO (NO3)2·5H2O) by heating hydro-thermal method subseqently supercritical drying technique. The prepared aerogels are performed by SEM and BET to characterize and analyze the morphology and pores characteric of ZrO2 aerogels. The results showed that: The areogels are the typical of nano pores in the interval between 5<Dp<60 nm; the specific surface areas reach 916.5 m2/g; There is a homogeneous pore distribution in aerogel. Morever the gel process was also discussed in this research.
