    Abstract: A lightweight and compact super-insulation system that is also capable of supporting a high level of compressive load is described. The system utilizes spacers to provide structural support and utilize controlled buckling of a thin protective outer skin supported by spacers to form strong catenary surfaces to protect insulation material underneath. The spacers may comprise an aerogel, or an aerogel may provide insulation separate from the spacer yet contained within the thin outer skin. The system will be useful for thermal management of variety of deep underwater structures such as pipe-in-pipe apparatus, risers or subsea trees for ultra-deep water oil-and-gas exploration.

    Abstract: Nanoporous carbon-based scaffolds or structures, and specifically carbon aerogels and their manufacture and use thereof. Embodiments include a cathode material within a lithium-air battery, where the cathode is formed of a binder-free, monolithic, polyimide-derived carbon aerogel. The carbon aerogel includes pores that improve the oxygen transport properties of electrolyte solution and improve the formation of lithium peroxide along the surface and/or within the pores of the carbon aerogel. The cathode and underlying carbon aerogel provide optimal properties for use within the lithium-air battery.

    Abstract: The invention provides a method for imparting curvature to a substantially planar material comprising placing substantially planar material in a smart bag, and heat shrinking the smart-bagged material, wherein curvature is imparted to the smart-bagged material upon heat-shrinkage (e.g., placing an aerogel blanket with fibrous batting in a smart bag, applying vacuum and sealing the bag, shipping the flat bagged material to a work-site, heat-shrinking the bag to impart annular geometry, and securing the bagged insulation around an oil pipeline). Methods are included for preparing a smart bag of the invention.
