Bio-based aerogels,which are poised as compelling thermal insulators,demand intricate synthesis procedures and have limited durability under harsh conditions.The integration of smart stimuli-response transitions in biomass aerogels holds promise as a solution,yet remains a challenge.Here,we introduce a pioneering strategy that employs reversible-gel-assisted ambient-pressure drying without organic solvents to craft multifunctional bio-based aerogels.By exploiting the thermally reversible gelling propensity of select biomasses,we anchor emulsified bubbles within cross-linked hydrogels,circumventing surface tension issues during mild drying.The resultant aerogels feature a robust porous matrix that is imbued with stable bubbles,yielding low thermal conductivity,high flame retardancy and robust resistance to diverse rigors.This innovative approach facilitates a paradigm shift in intelligent fire protection in which aerogels transition from robust to flexible in response to water stimuli,effectively shielding against thermal hazards and external forces.This work opens up a facile,eco-friendly and mild way to fabricate advanced biomass aerogels with stimuli-responsive transformation.
