TLDR
By embedding carbon nanotubes into poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) and poly(styrenesulfonate) supermolecular hydrogels in the presence of a very small amount of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), the fabrication of ultralight conducting polymer/carbon nanotube composite aerogels with the apparent density of 0.04-0.07lg/cm 3 made by supercritical CO 2 drying of as-made composite hydrogel precursors was presented in this paper.About:

Three dimensional macroporous architectures and aerogels built of carbon nanotubes and/or graphene: synthesis and applications
TL;DR: This review aims to describe the different synthetic processes used for preparation of these three-dimensional architectures and/or aerogels containing either any or both allotropes, and the different fields of application in which the particular structure of these materials provided a significant enhancement in the efficacy as compared to their two-dimensional analogues or even opened the path to novel applications.
