摘要：Porous metal-containing materials are provided for a variety of uses includingfilters, electrodes for batteries and fuel cells, light weight structural materials, heatexchangers and catalysts. A method is provided for making the porous metal-containingmaterials involving vapor phase sintering of a metal oxide green form followed byreduction to form a porous metal-containing material, typically without any significantshrinkage of the sample occurring during processing. The porous metal-containingmaterials may have porosities of from about 40 percent to as high as 90% in someembodiments. Furthermore, the pore volume is highly interconnected, which isparticularly advantageous for many applications.
