We report a sustainable and easy approach for the preparation of cellulose-based aerogels from the DBU–CO2 switchable solvent system via a solubilization and coagulation approach followed by freeze-drying. The easy, fast, and mild solubilization step (15 min at 30 °C) allows for a rapid preparation procedure. The effect of various processing parameters, such as cellulose concentration, coagulating solvent, and the superbase, on important aerogel characteristics including density, porosity, pore size, and morpholog…
