Preparation of Silica Aerogels by Ambient Pressure Drying without Causing Equipment Corrosion [PDF]
Molecules, 2018 The silica aerogels were prepared via a sol-gel technique and ambient pressure drying by using industrial solid wastes, dislodged sludges, as raw materials. A strategy was put forward to reduce the corrosion of equipment during the drying procedure.

Solvent Cavitation during Ambient Pressure Drying of Silica Aerogels [PDF]
LangmuirAmbient-pressure drying of silica gels stands out as an economical and accessible process for producing monolithic silica aerogels. Gels experience significant deformations during drying due to the capillary pressure generated at the liquid–vapor interface in submicron pores.

Morphology control of nickel nanoparticles prepared in situ within silica aerogels produced by novel ambient pressure drying [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 Silica aerogels are low density solids with high surface area and high porosity which are ideal supports for catalyst materials. The main challenge in aerogel production is the drying process, which must remove liquid from the pores of the wet gel while ...

Synthesis of New Flexible Aerogels from MTMS/DMDMS via Ambient Pressure Drying [PDF]
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2011 Although silica aerogel is expected to be the material for energy savings, the lack of the strength prevents from commercial applications such as to low-density thermal insulators and acoustic absorbents. To improve mechanical properties, methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMS) and dimethyldimethoxysilane (DMDMS) are used as the co-precursor of aerogels in this ...
