More Information
Summary:A method of preparing an alcogel for use as a source of fuel includes the steps of hydrolysing at least one tetraalkoxysilane with water in the presence of a solvent and catalyst, wherein the solvent includes at least one alcohol, and wherein the molar ratio (R) of water to alkoxide is greater than 4. The alcogel can then be stored in a hermetically sealed container in order to minimise evaporation of the alcohol, and used as a source of fuel, for example for use when camping.
