Abstract

The microstructral characteristics of titanium dioxide aerogels were studied by Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS). A variety of models were used to extract the morphological parameters from the SANS data. The evaluation of scattering data was found to be consistent with nitrogen gas adsorption and TEM measurements of a model of aerogel consisting of a light density matrix in which meso- and macro-pores are embedded.
