What is Carbon Aerogel?
Carbon Aerogel is a class of aerogels made from organic precursors like resorcinol-formaldehyde, which are carbonized under high-temperature conditions in an inert atmosphere. Unlike silica aerogels, carbon aerogels are black, electrically conductive, and have extremely high surface areas, making them ideal for energy storage, electrochemical applications, and thermal insulation in specialized environments.
Key Properties of Carbon Aerogel:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Appearance | Black, opaque, porous |
| Thermal Conductivity | 0.03 – 0.04 W/m·K (still low, but higher than silica) |
| Electrical Conductivity | Conductive – ideal for capacitors and electrodes |
| Density | 0.1 – 0.3 g/cm³ (extremely lightweight) |
| Surface Area | Up to 2500 m²/g – very high porosity |
| Mechanical Strength | Moderate – brittle in dry form |
| Temperature Resistance | High (up to 1000°C in inert environment) |
Applications of Carbon Aerogel:
Supercapacitors & Batteries
Electrode material in ultracapacitors due to its high surface area and conductivity
Used in next-gen Li-ion batteries and hybrid energy systems
Thermal Insulation in Space & Cryogenics
Used in aerospace, satellites, and space exploration for insulating critical systems
Gas Storage & Filtration
Ideal for hydrogen storage, CO₂ capture, and high-efficiency filtration
Radar Absorbing Material (RAM)
Used in stealth technology due to its electromagnetic absorption properties
