Bulk porous silver was fabricated by the dealloying Ag25Zn75 alloy. EDS and XRD confirmed that zinc atoms have been removed entirely, the residule was only silver, and the crystal structure switches from close-packed hexagonal structure to face-centered cubic during the process of the dealloying, which showes that a phase transition occurrs in the process of dealloying. The desquamation phenomenan presents on the surface of the as-dealloyed sample and volume of sample contracts. The change of the pore size and ligment width from exterior to interior has been also reseached. The formation mechanism of the bulk porous silver was discussed in the end.
