General Suspended Printing Strategy toward Programmatically Spatial Kevlar Aerogels
Aerogels represent a kind of nanoporous solid with immense importance for a plethora of diverse applications. However, on-demand conformal shaping capacity remains extremely challenging due to the strength unfavorable during aerogel processing. Herein, a universal microgel-directed suspended printing (MSP) strategy is developed for fabricating various mesoporous aerogels with spatially stereoscopic structures on-demand. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, through the rational design of the used microgel matrix and favorable printing of the Kevlar nanofiber inks, the Kevlar aerogels with arbitrary spatial structure have been fabricated, demonstrating excellent printability and programmability under a high-speed printing mode (up to 167 mm s–1). Furthermore, the custom-tailored Kevlar aerogel insulator possessing superior thermal insulation attribute has ensured normal discharge capacity of the drone even under a harsh environment (−30 °C). Finally, various types of spatial 3D aerogel architectures, including organic (cellulose, alginate, chitosan), inorganic (graphene, MXene, silica), and inorganic–organic (graphene/cellulose, MXene/alginate, silica/chitosan) hybrid aerogels, have been successfully fabricated, suggesting the universality of the MSP strategy. The strategy reported here proposes an alternative for the development of various customized aerogels and stimulates the inspiration to truly arbitrary architectures for wider applications.
