The ultra-low density carbon aerogel, as low as 20 mg/cm3, was fabricated by pyrolysis of the organic aerogel formed by aqueous condensation of resorcinol and formaldehyde. Its surface area was as high as 1783 m2/g and it was used for investigation of electrochemical capacitive behaviours. The ultra-low density carbon aerogel displayed capacitive performance (110 F/g at 0.2 A/g) in 6 M KOH aqueous solution. Additionally, over 98% of the initial capacitance was retained after repeating the cyclic voltammetry test for 1000 cycles. The electrochemical performance might be attributed to the combination of three dimensional “opened” structure and high surface area of the carbon aerogel.

The present investigation is about fabrication of single-crystalline ceria (CeO2) nanoparticle by a hydrothermal route. High surface area CeO2 was synthesized with transformation of morphology from nanofibers to nanocubes in response to processing conditions. A steady variation of average nanocrystallite size ca. in the range 3.0-16.9 nm and a range of band gap energy from 2.6 to 2.9 eV were measured. The surface area of the nanoparticles varied in the range 16.0136.1 m2/g and the variation in surface area is attributed to the nature of packing of particles. The ceria nanofibers could generate 870.5 µmol of H2 in 3 h of irradiation.

In this work, novel monolithic carbon aerogels obtained by using a polymer template method were characterized and evaluated for their applications in the hydrogen and deuterium adsorption capacity. The properties (i.e., surface area, pore size distribution, hydrogen and deuterium adsorption capacities, etc.) of the carbon aerogels were affected by the polymer templates. The results showed that the carbon aerogel with the molar ratio of polyacrylic acid (PAA) to zinc chloride (ZnCl2) being 0.75:40 was featured the highest surface area (1806 m2/g) and had the highest hydrogen adsorption capacity. Moreover, the deuterium adsorption capacity of the carbon aerogel was to be further elucidated.

Using soft templating, mechanically reversible compressible resorcinol–formaldehyde aerogels can be converted into mechanically reversible compressible carbon aerogels with high surface area by carbonization in an inert atmosphere.
