Novel solid metal–organic self-propagation combustion for controllable synthesis of hierarchically porous metal monoliths

Abstract

We demonstrate a solid glycine–nitrate self-propagation combustion route to fabricate hierarchically porous metallic monoliths. The solidifying temperature (Ts) and environmental gas pressure (P) were effective controlling factors over chemistry, topography and microstructures. This may offer easy scale-up and controllable synthesis of porous metal monoliths for wide applications like electrode current collectors, catalysts, catalyst substrates and sensors.
