To increase their electrochemically active surface area, catalysts supported on high surface
area materials, commonly carbons, are widely used in low-temperature fuel cells. Recent …

The most common and abundant polymer in nature is the linear polysaccharide cellulose,
but processing it requires a new approach since cellulose degrades before melting and …

An overview on the preparation and properties of resorcinol‐formaldehyde (RF) organic and
carbon gels reveals the fascinating and remarkably flexible properties of RF carbon and …

Silica aerogels are amorphous materials with remarkable properties, such as very high
porosity and specific surface area, and low bulk density and thermal conductivity. However …

Nanostructured mesoporous carbons are widely used in catalysis, adsorption and energy
storage. Unlike conventional carbons, the textural properties of nanostructured carbons can …

Polysaccharide-based hydrogel particles (PbHPs) are very promising carriers aiming to
control and target the release of drugs with different physico-chemical properties. Such …

The microstructure evolution of carbon fiber reinforced carbon aerogel-like matrix (C/CA)
composites with carbonization temperature and its influence on their properties were …

Resorcinol (R)− formaldehyde (F) aerogels are pursued as precursors of carbon aerogels,
which are electrically conducting. They are usually prepared via a week-long base …

An ambient pressure drying, cost-effective and environment-friendly synthesis method for
aerogels has been continuously pursued by scholars. However, phenolic aerogels are …

A considerable volume of wastewater is generally dumped into bodies of water, which has
severe negative consequences on aquatic habitats. While various traditional methods are …
