Unsolved fundamental problems of great practical importance remain in aerosol dynamics. In addition to the need for rapid chemical measurement methods mentioned above, much more research is required on the effects of turbulence on coagulation and nucleation the general dynamic equation must be extended to include factors that determine the crystal state of primary particles. We also need to continue efforts to Jink aerogel formation and aerosol dynamics as initiated by A. A. Lushnikov (Karpov Institute), Experimental and... 

The most extensively studied chemical system for aerogel formation is the silica system. The sensational images associated with aerogels— free-standing transparent monoliths insulating a hand from a flame or holding up a brick (Fig. 8.2), are almost all of silica materials. The reason for this lies in the well-developed and facile sol-gel chemistry of silica that lends itself to formation of robust monoliths, as well as the intriguing physical properties and associated applications of such materials (11,13).
