The aim of this study was to determine the effect of acrylamide (AM) and methylenebicacrylamid (MBAM) ratio on the pore character of gelcasted ceramics. They were synthesized from clay by a method based on in situ polymerization of the ceramic body. The polymer amount was 40 % of the latter. The pore template was formed in the course of polymer degradation. AM and MBAM were used as a monomer and a crosslinker, correspondingly. Their ratio studied referred to 6:1; 12:1; 18:1 and 24:1. The results showed that the highest values of the surface area and the pore volume were obtained in case of 6:1 ratio (1.353 m2/g and 0.004 cc/g, respectively). The pore volume amounted to 0.001 cc/g, 0.001 cc/g and 0.002 cc/g in presence of AM: MBAM of 12:1, 18:1 and 24:1, respectively. The pore radius was found equal to 32.415 Å, 530.15 Å, 1067,622 Å and 29,174 Å at the respective ratios of 6:1; 12:1; 18:1 and 24:1. © 2018 University of Chemical Technology and Metallurgy.
