ZnO/Al2O3, CuO/Al2O3, and CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 xerogels and aerogels have been prepared by a sol-gel route using propylene oxide as gelation initiator. For aerogel preparation, the solvent was extracted with supercritical CO2. Calcination of these xerogels and aerogels was followed by thermogravimetry (TG), and the microstructure of these calcined xerogels and aerogels was investigated by TEM, powder XRD, EXAFS, and nitrogen physisorption (BET, BJH). The oxide mixtures CuO/Al2O3 and CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 were also studied by temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), and their cata lytic activity in the formation of methanol from CO/CO2/H-2 synthesis gas was measured. The aerogels have a higher specific surface area and a higher Cu surface area than the corresponding xerogels, which results in a higher catalytic activity for methanol synthesis. The presence of ZnO significantly increases the catalytic activities of both the xerogel and the aerogel. ((c) Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
