Abstract
with a maximum thickness of 25 mm. Moreover, chemically reduced GOP (rGOP) aerogels are also synthesized. They are characterized by the additional feature of piezoresistive behavior, with only a marginal impact on the other properties. These results show that modified GOP and rGOP aerogels are promising candidates for the fabrication of multifunctional structures to be applied in advanced engineering applications.
