    Preparation and Characterization of Diphasic Sol-Gel Derived Unsupported Mullite Membranes
    (Springer Verlag, 2011) Topuz, Berna; Çiftçioglu, Muhsin
    Diphasic gels prepared by mixing freshly prepared polymeric silica and polymeric boehmite sols through a modified Al-alkoxide route in mullite compositions led to the crystallization of mullite upon heat treatment at 775°C. Mullite formation was observed at a 100°C higher temperature when diphasic gels were formed by mixing aged polymeric sols containing about 2 nm in diameter boehmite species. These relatively low mullite formation temperatures were attributed to the nanoscale sizes of the polymeric species of the two amorphous phases present in the diphasic gels.
