Brief Description

Description :

The proposal aimed to develop various aerogels, which can be used for HCl absorption at launch pad. The study was carried out for the largescale preparation of various aerogels by using 2D nanomaterials with ultra low density and very high surface area. The project also explored the capability of HCL as vapor absorption. The efficiency of these aerogels towards acoustic absorption efficiency as a possible duel application was also investigated.
