Abstract:Biomass aerogels are poised as compelling thermal insulators but are seriously plagued by energy-intensive preparation processes, mechanical strength degradation, and structural collapse under thermal shock. In this study, we present a simple and ecofriendly atmospheric drying method and an in situ carbonization strategy for fabricating biomass aerogels with high strength, both at room temperature and in fire scenarios. The air bubbles, trapped by biomass with a thermoreversible gelling ability, such as gellan… Show more
