Aerogel — that mixture of air and silica — is one of those materials that seems like a miracle. It is almost not there since the material is 99% air. [NileRed] wanted to make his own and he ...
By reconfiguring the aerogel’s internal honeycomb structure into a buckling network, researchers have unlocked new possibilities for robust, long-lasting sensors that could revolutionize human-machine ...
Xu and his colleagues synthesized an anisotropic cross-linked chitosan and reduced graphene oxide (CCS-rGO) aerogel metamaterial. This material was found to exhibit a remarkable directional ...
