Preparation of macroporous alginate-based aerogels for biomedical applications

Aerogels are a special class of ultra-light porous materials with growing interest in biomedical applications due to their open pore structure and high surface area. However, they usually lack macroporosity, while mesoporosity is typically high. In this work, carbon dioxide induced gelation followed...
