✦ Synopsis
Optically clear, homogeneous, monolithic aluminosilicate gels were prepared directly from solutions of inorganic aluminum salt, tetraethoxysilane, and alcohol. The dried aluminosilicate gels show new special properties, e.g. piezoelectricity and variable porosity (1-2000 m 2 /g) due to the fractal-like gel structure. Ceramic products, which keep the chemical bonds and structure of the gels, were produced by heat treatment at 300-3501C. The processes that occurred during heat treatment were investigated by thermal analysis and mass spectrometry. The temperature limits of the gel state were determined by differential scanning calorimetry and small angle X-ray scattering. The collapse of the gel structure began around 3501C; however, the amorphous character remained until the temperature (ca. 9701C) of the phase transmission. # 2002 Elsevier Science (USA)

Shaping zeolites into useful forms is very important for technical applications in areas such as catalysis, separation, and sensing. Normally it is difficult to form zeolites into appropriate shapes without mixing them with binders. Here, a method is presented for transforming preformed layered sili
