Abstract

Along with basic physicochemical properties, the morphology of sol-gel materials, oth on the macro-, meso-, and nanoscale, controls function and utility. Referring to recent achievements, we focus on the relation between form and activity for functional silica-based materials o elucidate a few general concepts of usefulness in guiding research in this burgeoning field.
