Chapter 3 Overview of organic–inorganic hybrid aerogels
Abstract
Aerogels are a special class of porous material, which are one of the lightest materials with high porosity (~90%). It forms a three-dimensional solid continuous network structure through an interconnected bond, and the pores are filled with gas. Currently, these materials are in high demand due to their unique properties such as low density, low thermal conductivity, high porosity, high specific surface area, and high pore volume. Due to this unique property, they have proven useful in a variety of applications including thermal insulation, aerospace applications, sensing, drug delivery, CO2 capture, environmental remediation, wastewater treatment, ...
