Abstract

Material with hierarchical porosity consisting of at least two elementary spherical particles having a maximum diameter of 200 microns, at least one of said spherical particles comprising at least one matrix based on silicon oxide, said material having a macropore volume measured by mercury porosimetry ranging between 0.05 and 1 ml/g, a mesopore volume measured by nitrogen volumetric analysis ranging between 0.01 and 1 ml/g and a micropore volume measured by nitrogen volumetric analysis ranging between 0.03 and 0.4 ml/g, said matrix having amorphous walls. The preparation of said material is also described.
