Influence of thermal process on microstructural and physical properties of ambient pressure dried hydrophobic silica aerogel monoliths
Author(s): Ai Du, Bin Zhou, Guangming Wu, Guangwu Liu, Guoqing Zu, Jun Shen, Xing Yuan Ni, Xingyuan Ni
Ambient pressure dried hydrophobic silica aerogel monoliths were prepared via simultaneous solvent exchange and surface modification in order to minimize volume shrinkage and density. At room temperature, the obtained silica ...
