The structure and properties of cellulose/AH nanocomposite aerogels were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy,ultraviolet-visible spectrometry, N_2 adsorption, thermogravimetric analysis, and micro-scale combustion calorimetry. The results indicated that the AH nanoparticles were homogeneously distributed within matrix, and the presence of AH nanoparticles did not affect the homogeneous nanoporous structure and morphology of regenerated cellulose aerogels prepared from1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride solution. The resultant nanocomposite aerogels exhibited good transparency and excellent mechanical properties. Moreover, the incorporation of AH was found to significantly decrease the flammability of cellulose aerogels. Therefore, this work provides a facile method to prepare transparent and flame retardant cellulose-based nanocomposite aerogels, which may have great potential in the application of building materials.展开更多
