Facile preparation of fracture-free pectin/clay aerogel monoliths

Author(s): H. Wu, Q. Chen, Y. Lua

Clay aerogels are typically used for insulation, filtration and absorption, and are typically favored because of their eco-friendly nature, low density and high porosity. Unfortunately, these aerogels are limiting due ...
