Silicate gels were prepared under a range of conditions in which the rate of hydrolysis was varied from fast to slow with respect to the rate of condensation. When hydrolysis was fast, larger, more highly condensed polymers were formed during gelation. Conversely, for slow hydrolysis, smaller, less highly condensed polymers were formed. These gels dried to low density coarse textured and high density fine textured gels, respectively. High temperatures, (>800°C) were required to densify the coarse gels by viscous sintering. Lower temperatures were sufficient to densify fine gels by a process which was postulated to consist of polymer relaxation followed by condensation and pore collapse.
