Ultralight and highly flexible aerogels with long cellulose I nanofibers

Abstract

Ultralight and highly flexible aerogels with long cellulose I nanofibers (CNFs) were produced viapurification and defibrillation of wood fibers into CNF hydrogels, followed by freeze-drying. The aerogels had a web-like entangled structure, low density, and high water uptake capability. With the increase of CNF content in hydrogels from 0.1 to 1.5%, the bulk density of the aerogels increased from 1.3 × 10−3 to 17.0 × 10−3 g cm−3, whereas the water uptake ratio (WUR) decreased from 155 to 54. The microstructure of the aerogels can be transformed from open 3D porous nanofibrillar network to 2D sheet-like skeletons by adjusting the CNF content of the hydrogels. A possible assembly mechanism was proposed based on this transformation. When the transparent supernatant fraction, which has ∼0.018% solid content obtained viacentrifugation of the hydrogels, was subjected to freeze-drying, ultra-low density aerogels (0.2 × 10−3 g cm−3) consisting of nanofibers with lengths above 1 mm and a width range of 40–180 nm, were successfully produced due to the self-assembled of the tiny CNFs and their bundles along the longitudinal direction.

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.
