Interestingly the big deal about this class of materials is about the "nothingness" within the pore space. International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) classifies porous materials into three categories micropores of less than 2 nm in diameter, mesopores between 2 and 50 nm, and macropores of greater than 50 nm.
