“Aerogels, characterized by their large porosity (often above 80 vol%) and specific surface area (about 100–1000 m2/g), have been synthesized in diverse compositions, and their applications have been investigated, including their thermal insulation, energy storage, catalytic features, environmental remediation, and aerospace applications [11,12].”
From Silica Aerogels as a Promising Vehicle for Effective Water Splitting for Hydrogen Production (2025) · cites this paper as [11]
In the citing paper
“Silica aerogels with densities less than 0.090 g/cm3 cannot be considered brittle; instead, they undergo an irreversible, plastic form change upon compression, and their Young’s modulus (E) is low.”
From Silica Aerogels as a Promising Vehicle for Effective Water Splitting for Hydrogen Production (2025) · cites this paper as [11]
In the citing paper
“The average density of most conventional silica aerogels is approximately 0.120 g/cm3 [11].”
From Silica Aerogels as a Promising Vehicle for Effective Water Splitting for Hydrogen Production (2025) · cites this paper as [11]
In the citing paper
“Even though silica aerogels have a high Young’s modulus, they become brittle at 0.150 g/cm3.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
