Glass foams are materials consisting of a light-weight porous glass structure of special importance in the fields of civil engineering and bio-implants. Typically, their synthesis involves the thermal foaming of a powder mixture of glass with a foaming agent that decomposes at the foaming temperature, resulting in a solid glass skeleton permeated by empty pores. In our work, we synthesized a series of glass foams with a hierarchical pore structure, obtained by combining pores generated through the foaming of a powdered mixture of silica-based glass, MnO2 and C at 815 C, with pores obtained by phase-separation (performed at circa 500 C) followed by acid leaching and washing. Using a combination of mercury intrusion porosimetry, N2 sorption and X-ray CT at the micro and nanometer scales we observed that slight changes in the preparation procedure resulted in foams with different porosity, surface area, pore size and pore volume. Furthermore, by applying machine learning segmentation to the X-ray CT data it was possible to map inhomogeneities, residues and cracks inside the foam walls.
