sol-gel process

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.ST07151
Process through which a @NT07562@ is formed from solution by a progressive change of liquid precursor(s) into a @S05727@, to a @G02600@, and in most cases finally to a dry @NT07562@.
Note:
An @IT07515@, e.g., silica @G02600@, or an organic–inorganic hybrid can be prepared by @S05727@-@G02600@ processing.
