Abstract

Yttrium doped SiO₂ monolithic aerogels were prepared with YCl₃·6H₂O, TEOS as raw material by sol-gel method and CO₂ supercritical drying technique, and the doping concentrations are in the range of 5wt%~30wt% Y₂O₃. The structures and properties of samples were analyzed by means of SEM (Scanning electron microscope), TEM (Transmission electron microscope), XRD (X-ray diffraction), BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) and XRF (X-ray fluorescence). The results showed that Y₂O₃-SiO₂ aerogels maintained the original space network structures of SiO₂ aerogels. Improvements in thermal stability were obtained by incorporation of yttrium species during the aerogels preparation. When treated by the thermal treatment with 900 °C for 2 h, the 10wt% (0.447 g of YCl₃·6H₂O)Y₂O₃-SiO₂ aerogels still showed an amorphous state and gave a larger surface area of 643.79 m²·g^-1, and the average pore diameter was about 21.3 nm.
