Porous Zn-based and ZnO composites are successfully fabricated via the sol-gel process and ambient pressure drying method using hexane as the drying solvent for the reduction in capillary force during drying process. Various highly porous Zn-based phases (Zn 1 -based and Zn 5 -based) that are studied by X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy show that they contribute through heat treatment (at 200 °C) to the development of ambient pressure dried nanoporous wurtzite (hexagonal) ZnO. A macroporous flower-like structure consisting of nanosheets is observed in porous Zn-based composites, and nanoporous structure is observed within platelets of ZnO nanoparticles. Possible routes for preparing highly porous Zn-based/ZnO composites are discovered by detailing the process for ambient pressure drying synthesis of porous wurzite ZnO.
