“…108 Besides the structural properties, aerographite samples exhibited piezoresistive behavior where the DC electrical conductivity can increase up 10 S/m upon compression. 109 Apart from using ZnO tetrapods, Hirahara et al 110 reported a new morphology of spiked-shell microparticles of aerographite where they used sea-urchin-like microparticles of ZnO, the so-called ZnO nanorodmicrospheres as templates for the synthesis of these spiked-shell aerographite. Compressing these spiked shell aerographite, the authors reported an elastic recovery after 73% strain.…”

Carbon aerogels (CAs) are a unique class of high surface area materials derived by sol-gel chemistry. Their high mass-specific surface area and electrical conductivity, environmental compatibility, and chemical inertness make them very promising materials for many applications, such as energy storage, catalysis, sorbents, and desalination. Since the first CAs were made via pyrolysis of resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF)-based organic aerogels in the late 1980s, the field has really grown. Recently, in addition to RF-derived amorphous CAs, several other carbon allotropes have been realized in aerogel form: carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene, graphite, and diamond. Furthermore, the popularity of graphene aerogels has inspired research into aerogels made of a host of graphene analog materials (e.g., boron nitride, transition metal dichalcogenides, etc.), with potential for an even wider array of applications. Finally, the development of threedimensional-printed aerogels provides the potential for CAs to have an even broader impact on energy-related technologies. Here, we will present recent work covering the novel synthesis of
