TLDR
The design of such a filigrane network requires the very careful control of chemical parameters and the reward is an assortment of different property profiles owing to the richness of possible variations.Abstract:
Air, air, air… and some solid skeleton; this is the basis for an interesting class of materials-the aerogels (shown schematically on the right). Can one therefore speak of "simple" chemistry? The design of such a filigrane network requires the very careful control of chemical parameters. The reward is an assortment of different property profiles owing to the richness of possible variations.read more

Mussel-inspired, ultralight, multifunctional 3D nitrogen-doped graphene aerogel
TL;DR: InspInspired by marine mussel, an ultralight, three dimensional (3D), and nitrogen doped graphene aerogel (NGA) is developed by virtue of dopamine (DA). DA undergoes selfpolymerization that can functionalize the graphene surface and also embeds nitrogen atoms onto the graphene sheets upon pyrolysis as mentioned in this paper.

Monodisperse hollow silica nanospheres for nano insulation materials: synthesis, characterization, and life cycle assessment.
TL;DR: The results indicate that the recycle of chemicals, up-scaling production, and use of environmentally friendly materials can greatly affect the process of environmental footprints and new synthesis routes for NIMs with improved thermal performance and energy and environmental features are recommended on the basis of the LCA study.
