> Problem: #airogel made of CO² is an excellent insulator that's useful for many applications; but it needs structure, so foam+airogel but that requires smelly foam
> Possible solution: Cause structure to form in the airogel.
Backpack shoulder straps on e.g. Jansport backpacks have a geometric rubber mesh that's visible through a plastic window.
## Possible methods of causing structure to form in aerogel
- EM Hz: literally play EM waves (and possibly deliberately inverse convolutions) at the {#airogel,} production process
- Titratation
- Centrifugation
- "Volt grid": apply volts/amps/Hz patterns with a probe array
- Thermal/photonic bath 3d printing
- Pour a lattice-like lens as large as the aerogel sections and allow solar to cause it to slowly congeal to a more structural form in advantageous shapes
- Die-casting, pressure-injection molding
