To reduce energy losses due to the insufficient thermal insulation is one of the current “hot”
topics. Various commercial porous materials are used with the best conductivity around 0.03 …

Pectin aerogels were synthesized via dissolution-solvent exchange-drying with supercritical
CO 2. The goal was to correlate thermal conductivity with aerogel morphology and …

Bio-composite aerogels based on bleached cellulose fibers (BCF) and cellulose
nanoparticles having various morphological and physico-chemical characteristics are …

Starch aerogels were prepared via dissolution in water (thermomechanical treatment),
retrogradation, solvent exchange, and drying with supercritical CO2. Amylose content in …

The recent global energy context has been recognized as evidence for the need to reduce
our energy consumption, to prolong fossil fuel supplies and minimize shortage, and to …

Nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) aerogels were prepared by spray freeze-drying (SFD). Their
structural, mechanical and thermal insulation properties were compared to those of NFC …

Aerogels are open-cell foams that have already been shown to be among the best thermal
insulating solid materials known. This paper examines the three major contributions to …

This review is focused on describing the intimate link which exists between aerogels and
thermal superinsulation. For long, this applied field has been considered as the most …

Cellulose–SiO 2 composite hydrogel was prepared by combining the NaOH/thiourea/H 2 O
solvent system and the immersion method with controlling the hydrolysis–fasculation rate of …

Aerogel is a nanoporous solid material with ultrahigh porosity, ultralow density, and thermal
conductivity, which is considered to be one of the most promising high‐performance …
