In 2012, Mecklenburg et al. introduced a novel three‐dimensional interconnected carbon morphology based on tetrapods, named Aerographite. This chapter discusses the most important and most common fabrication processes for carbon aerogels and some specific three‐dimensionally interconnected networks. Important to note is that the variety of morphologies is hardly limited and mostly depends on the manufacturing process. The chapter also discusses the properties of aerogels which are often related to their density or their porosity. For improving the material properties, various modifications can be realized with different methods.enBook Part10.1002/9781119429418.ch8Arnault, Jean‐CharlesJean‐CharlesArnaultEder, DominikDominikEderOther
