Abstract

A composite nanofiber aerogel (CNA) is formed from aramid nanofibers (ANFs) combined with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). These nanoscale constituents of the aerogel form 3D networks with high nodal connectivity and strongly welded connectivity joints between fibrils so that the structure has high stiffness and strength compared to other polymeric aerogels and successive breakage of crosslinks at the connectivity nodes affords energy dissipation while maintaining the overall structural integrity. A specific class of CNA with a specific solid content may be used to form a thin firm with a composite nanofiber framework (CNFF) that is useful in the manufacture of kirigami wearable electronics.
