A new gel could better stop homes from catching fire, researchers have found, as the US battles yet another intense wildfire ...

This process eliminates the surface tension effects that would normally collapse the gel's structure during drying. Unlike aerogels, which are characterized by their dry, porous structure, hydrogels ...

Researchers from Zhejiang University and other Chinese institutions have now created a graphene aerogel that achieves this elusive combination through precise control of its internal structure. Their ...

The transformation from hydrogel to aerogel is what makes this new material so effective. Once the water and cellulose ...

This lecture will describe recent advances in hybrid cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) material development and show applications in emulsions/emulsion polymerization, injectable hydrogels and crosslinked ...
