Özet
IntroductionSilica aerogels are extraordinary porous materials with numerous superior properties such as very low density (0.003-0.5 g/cm 3 ), high surface area (500-1200 m 2 /g), and high porosity (80%-99.8%)[1][2][3][4].Due to their outstanding properties aerogels are frequently used in many applications as thermal insulators [5], catalysis, chemical sensors [6], in drug delivery systems [7], acoustic insulators [8] and in space applications [9].Due to their highly developed 3D porous structure, aerogels are also used as nano-fillers in several composites production, recently.Many researchers have showed that the addition of
