- Additional information
- This EPSRC and Unilever funded research developed novel sound insulating materials that have high acoustic efficiency, are environmentally friendly with only water vapour in the pores and save at least 50% production costs (simeon.stoyanov@unilever.com). Sound attenuation performance can be optimised at selected frequencies to achieve a specific mechanical performance. Our templating method has now been used in many other applications including catalysis, energy storage, and removal of pollutants, sensors and biomaterials. See https://doi.org/10.1039/C8TA09750J for a recent review.
