Low‐Cost Ambient Pressure Drying Approach for Highly Porous Nanomaterial Structures
Small Methods, EarlyView.We propose a simple, low‐cost method to dry highly porous nanomaterial structures at ambient temperature and pressure. Using low surface tension solvents, this technique minimizes capillary forces, preventing pore collapse and material shrinkage. This bypasses the need for expensive and size‐limiting critical point drying, enabling scalable production ...
