  • Nanoporous composite materials are useful as catalyst supports, solid phases for
  • chromatography or insulating materials can be made in different ways, such as by reaction (WO 2006/128872), by gelation of colloidal dispersions (WO 2005/095502), by adhering aerogels (WO 2012/76489) or by linking together hollow particles by inorganic or organic binders (US 2,797,201 ).
  • WO 2009/043191 relates to a method for producing macro-porous materials comprising the following steps: a) synthesis of narrowly dispersed cross-linked polymeric particles starting from a monomer and a cross-linker by emulsion polymerization; b) swelling of the particles with a liquid mixture comprising at least an additional charge of monomer and cross-linker and subsequent destabilisation; c) initiation of the polymerization reaction of the swollen particles to form a monolithic structure.
  • Such monoliths can be very efficiently functionalised if after the synthesis of the polymeric particles in step a) and before the initiation of the reaction of the swollen particles in step c) the polymeric particles are chemically functionalised or prepared for subsequent functionalization of the monolithic structure.
