Aerogels: Properties and Applications

The book serves as a fundamental information source on the techniques and methodologies applied to obtain the aerogel form of different nanomaterials, their characterization, and their post-synthesis modification or hybridization. The information enclosed in this book will be invaluable for experts to consolidate their knowledge and provide insight for newcomers to the field. Moreover, the book also includes the evolution of student satisfaction regarding a novel teaching approach based on the use of a teaching mobility event (International Week) as a platform to introduce engineering students to nanotechnology and specifically to graphene aerogels which could serve to improve teaching abilities and outcomes.

Shipping Policy

FAST DELIVERY! We ship worldwide via FedEx, UPS, DHL, and USPS because they’re Fast, Reliable, Affordable, and Easily Trackable. We process orders in 24 hours; delivery may take 4 to 7 days or sooner, depending on your location. Once shipped, you will receive an email with your tracking number.

Ships From: Not all our products are shipped from the USA; we ship some from regions like China, Taiwan, or Europe. Therefore, the tariff you will pay will differ depending on which country your order will be shipped from because not all countries charge the same amount. For example, if the US imposes a 30% tariff on goods from China, other countries may impose a much lower tariff. Check the "Ships From:" label on this product page to see from which country we will ship it.

TARIFF: Check the "Ships From:" label on this product page to see which country we will ship this product from. While not all products require a tariff, some may require a minimal or no tariff in your country. If applicable, the buyer will pay the tariff within their respective country. The total amount of your order does not include a tariff. Please enter a reachable phone number during checkout so the Shipping Company can contact you to pay the tariff once your parcel arrives at your destination.

Why don't we add tariffs to the product's retail price? If all countries imposed the same tariff amount and used the same currency, we would have added the tariff amount to the product price. However, we do not do that because each country charges a different amount and uses a different currency, while some do not even charge a tariff. Therefore, we can't add a tariff to the product's retail pricing. Oz Robotics' manufacturing partners, or suppliers are not responsible for tariffs. Please check the "Ships From:" label on the product page to see the product's origin. The total amount for your order does not include a tariff. The customer must pay the tariff. We will not cancel your order or refund you if you do not pay the tariff. More Details.

SHIPPING COSTS: For some industrial products, e.g., heavy wheels, CNC machines, etc., the shipping cost is calculated based on the product weight, not quantity. For lower shipping costs for orders with multiple items, please email us at sales@ozrobotics.com before you buy. We show shipping rates on the product page under the SHIPPING tab. To see the shipping cost for your country, click add to cart on the product page.

PRODUCT DATASHEET AND MANUAL: If applicable, the Product Documentation, such as the Datasheet, CAD Design, STP Files, Manuals, Reference Materials, and Tutorials, will be available for download upon purchase from the My Account as needed.
