title: Hierarchically porous silver monoliths from colloidal bicontinuous interfacially jammed emulsion gels.
abstract: Silver monoliths with interconnected hierarchical pore networks and three-dimensional (3D) bicontinuous morphology are synthesized from a colloidal bicontinuous interfacially jammed emulsion gel (bijel) via reduction of silver ions within a nanoporous cross-linked polymer template. The pore sizes may be tuned independently and range from tens of nanometers to over a hundred micrometers. The method is straightforward as well as flexible and can pave the way to a host of hierarchical materials for current technologies.
