Metallic Aerogels: 3D Printing Hierarchical Silver Nanowire Aerogel with Highly Compressive Resilience and Tensile Elongation through Tunable Poisson's Ratio (Small 38/2017)
In article number 1701756, P. Yan, D. Lin, and co-workers report a novel three-dimensional freeze assembling printing technique for silver nanowire aerogels with controllable density (down to 1.3 mg cm−3), high electrical conductivity of 1.3 S cm−1, and excellent compressive resilience under 50% compressive strain. Remarkably, the printing methodology also enables the tuning of aerogel architectures with Poisson's ratio from negative to positive.
