Structure and properties of cork-silica Xerogel nanocomposites: influence of the cork content

Environmentally friendly nanocomposites were synthesized from a silica precursor and cork under mild conditions and dried at atmospheric pressure. Because of the covalent bonding between the components, these CorSil nanocomposites are homogeneous, light (apparent density in the range 360-750 kg m(-3...
