Abstract
A process for producing a heat-resistant and high-purity porous silicon oxide material having excellent crystallinity and uniformity in pore size. The process includes: a first step of dispersing a substance containing silicon in an aqueous solution of a surfactant and adjusting the pH of the dispersion to a value of 10 or higher; a second step of adjusting the pH thereof to a value lower than 10 and forming a composite of a silicon oxide and a surfactant; and a third step of removing the surfactant from the composite. A water-soluble component is preferably removed from the dispersion between the first and second steps.
