Abstract

The invention relates to high-porosity silica xerogels and a process for their preparation consisting of subjecting silica alcogels to thermal treatment in the presence of organic compounds containing amino and hydroxyl groups. The xerogels are characterised by a total pore volume .gtoreq.2 cc/g and a mean pore diameter .gtoreq.100 .ANG..
