Due to high porosity and readily accessible inter-connected open pore system aerogel based
materials gained a special interest in various fields. Nanomaterial incorporated aerogels are
potential candidates for catalysis, thermal insulation, filter materials, energy absorbers, heat and
sound insulation applications. In this work, light weight silver nanomaterial incorporated bacterial
cellulose (BC) aerogel is prepared without the addition of any reducing agent. BC acts as a
nanoreactor and reducing agent for metallic nanoparticle synthesis.
