Macroporous material
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A macroporous material is a material containing pores with diameters greater than 50 nm.
Porous materials are classified into several kinds by their size. According to IUPAC notation (see J. Rouquerol et al., Pure & Appl. Chem, 66 (1994) 1739-1758), microporous materials have pore diameters of less than 2 nm, mesoporous materials have pore diameters between 2 nm and 50 nm and macroporous materials have pore diameters of greater than 50 nm.
