Hypothesis Cellulose-based aerogel, due to its rich reserves, environmental friendliness
and porous structure, is considered as a new type of adsorbents for treating oil and water …

In this paper sound absorption characteristics of silica aerogel/polyester (PET) blankets are
investigated. PET fibers were made on an industrial scale compact melt spinning line and …

Polyurea is an isocyanate derivative, and comprises the basis for a well-established class of
polymeric aerogels. Polyurea aerogels are prepared either via reaction of multifunctional …

The objective of this research was to develop a reinforced silica aerogel composites with
enhanced thermal insulation performance under thermal-force coupling conditions. Phenolic …

Aerogels have been used as a heat insulating material for the last few decades and possess
extremely remarkable qualities for heat insulation. The qualities like light weight (contains …

A family of ambient-dried polybenzoxazine aerogels is prepared with a facile and scalable
process as a high-performance polymeric aerogel with strong and robust thermomechanical …

Two types of preformed alginate wet gels, one with a low (30–35%) and the other with a high
(65–75%) content of glucuronic acid, were reacted with an aliphatic triisocyanate that was …
