Abstract
Single-stage synthesis of monolithic meso/macroporous polymethylsilsesquioxane in a neutral aqueous solution without the use of a catalyst and heating has been described. Calcination at temperatures of no higher than 300°C yields a superhydrophobic material capable of absorbing oil pollutants from water surface.
