Abstract
Bio-based aerogels are environmentally friendly and renewable materials that exhibit excellent compatibility. However, their development is constrained by poor flame retardancy and limited mechanical properties. This paper presents an overview of the characteristics, classification, preparation techniques, and engineering applications of bio-based aerogels. Based on the thermal insulation mechanism, this paper summarizes the research progress of five common bio-based aerogels and proposes the future development direction.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Materials Science publishes reviews, full-length papers, and short Communications recording original research results on, or techniques for studying the relationship between structure, properties, and uses of materials. The subjects are seen from international and interdisciplinary perspectives covering areas including metals, ceramics, glasses, polymers, electrical materials, composite materials, fibers, nanostructured materials, nanocomposites, and biological and biomedical materials. The Journal of Materials Science is now firmly established as the leading source of primary communication for scientists investigating the structure and properties of all engineering materials.
