Fumed silica is used as a template in the nanocasting approach towards nanoporous silicon carbide, and it can then be applied as a catalyst support. By varying the pyrolysis temperature between 1000 and 1500°C, the structural parameters of the resulting silicon carbide materials DUT-87 (DUT = Dresden University of Technology) can be controlled. A specific surface of 328 m2 g-1 is obtained. Furthermore, the oxidation behaviour of such nanoporous SiCs is investigated. The materials are distinguished by an impressive thermal stability at 900°C for at least 12 h, which is allowed by the presence of a passive oxidation even for such highly porous SiCs. Hence, nickel (10 wt%) was supported on the fresh DUT-87 as well as controlled oxidized DUT-87preox samples, and the influence of the different support properties on the characteristics of the catalyst samples which are used in the carbon dioxide reforming of methane was investigated.
