Iphefumlelwe kukungqinelana kunye nokuqina kwe-silk yendalo yesigcawu, iqela lophando elikhokelwa nguNjing. YU Shuhong ovela kwiDyunivesithi yeSayensi kunye neTekhnoloji yeTshayina (i-USTC) iphuhlise indlela elula nethe gabalala yokuqulunqa amandla amakhulu e-carbon aerogels kunye nokukhathala okumelana ne-carbon aerogels nge nanofibrous Isakhiwo senethiwekhi ngokusebenzisa i-resorcinol-formaldehyde resin njengomthombo wekhabhoni.

Kumashumi nje akutshanje, iikhabhoni aerogels ziye zaphononongwa ngokubanzi kusetyenziswa iicarbonic carbons kunye neekarbons ezithambileyo, ezibonakalisa ukuxhamla kwi-superelasticity. Ezi aerogels ezi-elastiki zihlala zineempawu ezibuthathaka zokungakhathali kodwa amandla aphezulu e-ultralow. Iikhabhathi ezinzima zibonisa iingenelo ezinkulu kumandla oomatshini kunye nozinzo lwesakhiwo ngenxa yesakhiwo se-sp3 se-C-indased turbostratic "indlu-yamakhadi". Nangona kunjalo, ukuqina kunye nokuqina fragility ngokucacileyo kungena ngendlela yokufikelela kwi-superelasticity ngeekhabhoni ezinzima. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, isengumngeni ukwenza i-aerogels esekhompyutheni enobunzima bekhompyuter.

Ukucocwa kweerin monomers kwaqalwa apho kukho i-nanofibers njengeetemplate zesakhiwo ukulungiselela i-hydrogel inethiwekhi zanofibrous, kulandelwa ukomiswa kunye ne-pyrolysis ukuze ifumane ikharbon airgel. Ngexesha le-polymerization, ii-monomers zifaka kwitemplate kwaye ziweldile amalungu e-fiber-fiber, zishiya isakhiwo senethiwekhi esingagungqiyo esineejoyina ezinkulu. Ngapha koko, iipropathi ezibonakalayo (ezinje ngee-diameter ze-nanofibre, uxinano lweeerogels, kunye neepropathi zoomatshini) zingalawulwa ngokuguqula nje itemplate kunye nenani lezinto ezingalunganga.

Ngenxa yecarbon nanofibers ezinzima kunye namalungu adibeneyo ashushu phakathi kwee-nanofibers, ii-aerogels ezilukhuni zekhabhoni zibonisa ubungqingqwa kunye nokusebenza okuzinzileyo koomatshini, kubandakanya ukuqina kakhulu, amandla aphezulu, isantya sokubuyisa ngokukhawuleza (860 mm s-1) kunye nelahleko yokulahleka kwamandla okuncinci ( <0.16). Emva kokuvavanywa phantsi koxinzelelo lwe-50% yemijikelezo eyi-104, ikharbon airgel ibonisa kuphela iipesenti ezi-2% zosulelo lweplastiki, kunye nokugcinwa koxinzelelo lwe-93% yoqobo.

Ikharbon airgel enobunzima inokugcina ukugqwesa okuphezulu kwiimeko ezinzima, njengakwi nitrogen engamanzi. Ngokusekwe kwipropathi yomatshini enomdla, le kharbon airgel inesithembiso ekusebenziseni izinzwa zoxinzelelo ngozinzo oluphezulu kunye nodidi olubanzi lomphenyi (50 KPa), kunye nabaqhubi abakwaziyo ukuhambisa okanye ukuhambisa. Le ndlela igcina isethembisa ukwandiswa ukwenza ezinye ii-nanofibers ezingezizo zekhabhoni kwaye ibonelele ngendlela ethembisayo yokuguqula izinto eziluqilima zibe ziimveliso ezixineneyo okanye eziguqukayo ngokwenza uyilo lobuchule be-nanofibrous.
