Abstract
Carbon fibrous aerogels, distinguished by low density, outstanding mechanical properties and thermal stability, hold great promise for applications in aerospace, military, and environmental protection. However, large-scale production and precise structure control of carbon fibrous aerogels present significant challenges. Herein, solution blow spinning combined with rotating receiving apparatus was employed to fabricate elastic lamellar carbon/silica nanofibrous aerogels (CSNFAs). The utilization of receiving apparatus for traction enabled efficient assembly of PAN nanofiber networks into layered and stacked structure. Interlayer spacing of CSNFAs could be finely tuned within range of 30–250 μm by adjusting speed with range of 500–1000 RPM. The mesoporous architecture of CSNFAs, along with their intrinsic properties, significantly enhanced adsorption capabilities. Integration of lamellar structure enabled precise control over thermal stability. Capitalizing on laminated structure, CSNFAs exhibited excellent compressive elasticity while maintaining exceptional super elasticity across extreme temperatures ranging from 600 °C to −196 °C. CSNFAs guaranteed reliable performance across a wide temperature range and supported repeated use.
期刊介绍:
Ceramics International covers the science of advanced ceramic materials. The journal encourages contributions that demonstrate how an understanding of the basic chemical and physical phenomena may direct materials design and stimulate ideas for new or improved processing techniques, in order to obtain materials with desired structural features and properties.
Ceramics International covers oxide and non-oxide ceramics, functional glasses, glass ceramics, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials (and their combinations with metal and organic materials), in the form of particulates, dense or porous bodies, thin/thick films and laminated, graded and composite structures. Process related topics such as ceramic-ceramic joints or joining ceramics with dissimilar materials, as well as surface finishing and conditioning are also covered. Besides traditional processing techniques, manufacturing routes of interest include innovative procedures benefiting from externally applied stresses, electromagnetic fields and energetic beams, as well as top-down and self-assembly nanotechnology approaches. In addition, the journal welcomes submissions on bio-inspired and bio-enabled materials designs, experimentally validated multi scale modelling and simulation for materials design, and the use of the most advanced chemical and physical characterization techniques of structure, properties and behaviour.
Technologically relevant low-dimensional systems are a particular focus of Ceramics International. These include 0, 1 and 2-D nanomaterials (also covering CNTs, graphene and related materials, and diamond-like carbons), their nanocomposites, as well as nano-hybrids and hierarchical multifunctional nanostructures that might integrate molecular, biological and electronic components.
