Novel Methods for Creating Eco-Friendly High Performance Aerogels

We are testing a novel approach that enables us to create structures with specific sizes and shapes within aerogel using syringe pumps and 3D printers. This method enables specific internal pore structure design. This is possible because freeze-drying removes ice structures placed within the wet gel. Once the aerogel is lyophilized, it will have cavities […]
