Data for the synthesis of pyrogallol-formaldehyde aerogels using two acid catalysts oxalic acid y hydrochloric acid.

ABSTRACT: Aerogels are extremely porous materials with large pore volumes and low bulk densities. Their unique structure imparts extraordinary properties and wide applications. The synthesis of pyrogallol-formaldehyde xerogels has been reported using HClO4 as a catalyst, but according to the literature review the synthesis of aerogels of these materials has not been documented. In the present work, the data for the synthesis of aerogels pyrogallol-formaldehyde are presented using oxalic acid and hydrochloric acid as catalysts. Also includes the data of the characterization of these materials by Infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis Tg-DTG, Physisorption of N2, Raman Spectroscopy, X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). It was determined that the use of these precursors of the synthesis of aerogels in acid medium, leads to the obtaining of microporous solids with a high value of the surface area, the material with the highest value of this parameter has been CAePF OA550 at have a BET area value of 1066 m2 g-1.
