Disclosed is a process for producing a holey fiber preform through a sol-gel molding method. The process comprises the steps of: (a) expanding a plurality of elongated tubes, wherein the tubes can be expanded/contracted by control of pressure in the tubes, (b) positioning the expanded tubes in the mold in a predetermined arrangement; (c) introducing a sol gel into the mold; (d) separating the gel from the mold, and contracting the tubes to form elongated air holes in the gel; and (e) removing the tubes. In the process, the tubes for forming air holes can be removed with no impact on the dried gel.

A sol-gel process is disclosed. The process includes forming a sol by dispersing an organic binder and at least two kinds of fumed silica having different particle sizes into de-ionized water and forming a gel by injecting the dispersed sol into a mold.
摘要:
A sol-gel process is disclosed. The process includes the steps of creating a sol by dispersing an organic binder having Si—O backbone structure into de-ionized water together with fumed silica, injecting the dispersed sol into a mold to form a gel, drying the gel, removing organic substances remaining in the gel, removing impurities remaining in the gel and OH radicals, and heating the gel at a temperature to improve the consolidation of the gel.
