TLDR
All carbon aerogels with ultralow density and temperature-invariant super-elasticity are fabricated by facile assembling of commercial carbon nanotubes and chemically-converted giant graphene sheets, on the basis of the synergistic effect between elastic CNTs ribs and giant graphene cell walls.
Abstract
All carbon aerogels (up to 1000 cm(3)) with ultralow density (down to 0.16 mg cm(-3)) and temperature-invariant (-190-900 °C) super-elasticity are fabricated by facile assembling of commercial carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and chemically-converted giant graphene sheets, on the basis of the synergistic effect between elastic CNTs ribs and giant graphene cell walls.

Microstructure Design of Lightweight, Flexible, and High Electromagnetic Shielding Porous Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube/Polymer Composites.

TL;DR: Under the mutual promotion of the frame and porous structure, the lightweight high-performance shielding is achieved: a 2.3 mm thick sample can reach 46.7 dB in the microwave X-band while the density is merely 32.3 mg cm-3, far beyond the conductive polymer composites with other fillers ever reported.
