Background
In recent years, carbon nanotube aerogels and carbon nanotube composite aerogels have become hot spots of research. The aerogel is a network structure composed of nano particles or fibers, belongs to a solid matter form, and is an ultra-light porous material with low density. Aerogels have found widespread use and research as thermal insulation materials and energy storage devices. The carbon nano tube has good electric conductivity, and a conductive path and elastic gel in suspension liquid with certain concentration can be formed through van der Waals acting force among mutual connection under the condition of low volume fraction, so that the carbon nano tube belongs to a good aerogel precursor.
In 2007, the subject group of Arjun G.Yodh, the physical astronomical system of university of Pennsylvania, utilizes a carbon nanotube hydrogel precursor to prepare carbon nanotube aerogel with good performance by a critical point drying and freeze drying method. See the prior art "Mateusz B.B, Daniel E.M, Mohammad F.I, et al carbon nanotube aerogels. adv. Mater.2007,19,661, 664.".

See the prior art "Zhuyin S, Qinhan M, Xuetong Z, et al.Green synthesis of carbon nanotube-graphene hybrid aerogels and the use as a versatility for waterpurification. J.Mater.chem.,2012,22, 8767-.
In 2015, the department group of Shenzhen advanced technology research institute, Guiping Zhang, Chinese academy of sciences, adopted a freeze-drying method to prepare the hyperbranched macromolecule-containing carbon nanotube/silver particle composite aerogel with good performance. See the prior art "Songfang Z, Yongju G, targeting Z, et al. coded pumped reagent-copedbornen-supported Ag hybrid sites: Synthesis, structure management, and its application for flexible conductors and string-gauge sensors. CARBON86(2015) 225. 234.".
