In recent years, aerogel, an ultra-lightweight, porous nanostructured functional material has
attracted significant industrial applications, including polluted water treatment. Their high …

The high specific surface areas and porosities of aerogels can impart desirable properties to
textiles. The most established application of aerogels in textiles is the enhancement of …

The overexploitation of natural resources and the shortage of labour in the building sector is
encouraging the development of prefabrication applied to building. This is leading the …

This paper reports a novel polymer aerogel that can be repeatedly regenerated by ammonia
water at 95° C. Styrene-maleic anhydride alternating copolymer (SMA) has been …

Waste tire textile fibers (WTTF), as a by-product (10–15% by weight of tires) of end-of-life
tires (ELT) mechanical recycling (grinding), are classified as hazardous wastes and …

In the context of “carbon neutrality and emission peak”, aerogel that can meet national
energy saving and emission reduction requirements while achieving efficient noise …

End-of-life tires (ELT) are a worldwide problem. Rubber, steel, and different textile fibers are
the by-products of ELT. Unlike rubber and steel, waste tire textile fibers (WTTF) are disposed …

Challenges remain in the design and manufacture of acoustic devices with excellent
broadband sound absorption performance. Herein, an efficient acoustic absorber with …

Gypsum-plaster is becoming an ideal binder in the valorisation and recovery of waste for
designing more sustainable composites. Nevetheless, the main limitation of plaster lies in its …

Rapid cleanup of oil spill is becoming a great challenge since crude oil is hard to clean up
by conventional porous oil sorbents because of its high viscosity. Herein, novel fabrication of …
