Aerogels are colloidal, open porous, low-density solids classically obtained by sol-gel chemistry and supercritical drying. Originally invented in the 1930s by Kistler,[1] they are currently experiencing a tremendous revival fueled by recent commercialization efforts and a rapidly growing field of applications. Although many colloidal compounds can be obtained in aerogel form, silica is the most widely studied material[2] and the only class of aerogel available in bulk quantities by commercial suppliers.
