Carbon aerogels have several remarkable properties:
Low Density: They are among the lightest materials known, with densities as low as 3 mg/cm³. High Surface Area: Their surface area can exceed 1500 m²/g, making them ideal for applications requiring extensive surface interactions. Electrical Conductivity: They exhibit good electrical conductivity, useful in applications like supercapacitors. Thermal Insulation: Their low thermal conductivity makes them excellent thermal insulators.
