Carbon aerogels are a unique class of high-surface-area materials
derived by sol-gel chemistry. Their properties, such as high mass-
compatibility, and chemical inertness, make them very promising
view of recent developments in controlling their morphology
and functionality. In this chapter, we will review the synthesis of
monolithic resorcinol–formaldehyde-based carbon aerogels with
hierarchical porosities for energy applica tions, including carbon
nanotube and graphene composite carbon aerogels, as well as ...
