The lacunarity of TEM images of heat-treated hybrid organosilica materials incorporating a biphenyl moiety was determined. The measured lacunarity of the samples correlated with the degree of observed clumping. Heat treatment was found to be desirable in decreasing the lacunarity of the samples, leading to an increase in the available surface area of the material.
