Effect of supercritical CO2 drying variables and gel composition on the textural properties of cellulose aerogels
Cellulose aerogels are interesting platforms for biomedical and drug delivery applications, due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, water absorption capacity, and good textural properties. Supercritical CO2 drying has been proven as an efficient technology for obtaining aerogels and preserving the porous structure. In this work, the effect of relevant process variables (CO2 density, depressurization rate, and intermediate depressurization mode) and gel composition on the textural properties of cellulose aerogels is studied. Experiments are performed in batch-mode, and aerogel monoliths are characterized in terms of apparent density, porosity, specific surface area, and crystalline morphology. Water uptake in different buffer solutions is also evaluated. The use of thiourea in the gel formation leads to lower porosity. On the other hand, higher porosity and surface area are obtained when depressurization is slow and the system is only partially depressurized between drying cycles. Aerogels showed a good and fast water uptake capacity, regardless of the pH (200–500 %).
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Supercritical Fluids is an international journal devoted to the fundamental and applied aspects of supercritical fluids and processes. Its aim is to provide a focused platform for academic and industrial researchers to report their findings and to have ready access to the advances in this rapidly growing field. Its coverage is multidisciplinary and includes both basic and applied topics.
Thermodynamics and phase equilibria, reaction kinetics and rate processes, thermal and transport properties, and all topics related to processing such as separations (extraction, fractionation, purification, chromatography) nucleation and impregnation are within the scope. Accounts of specific engineering applications such as those encountered in food, fuel, natural products, minerals, pharmaceuticals and polymer industries are included. Topics related to high pressure equipment design, analytical techniques, sensors, and process control methodologies are also within the scope of the journal.
