Table 5. Summary of Nanoindentation Measurements (Hardness and Modulus) on Heat-Treated Aerogels, Xerogels, and Heat-Treated Xerogelsa.
| sample | hardness (GPa) | modulus (GPa) |
|---|---|---|
| Na-HTA | 0.0004 | 0.014 |
| Na-X | 0.0277 | 0.476 |
| (0.0107) | (0.115) | |
| Na-HTX | 0.0651 | 0.634 |
| (0.0070) | (0.158) |
Since replicates were run on the Na-X and Na-HTX, standard deviations (±1σ) are provided in parentheses below each data point.
