To avoid the use of rare copper alkoxides, copper oxide aerogels were prepared using copper chloride, polyacrylic acid and propylene oxide via the dispersed inorganic sol–gel method, a supercritical fluid drying process and a 500 °C thermal treatment. The morphology and composition of the aerogel without thermal treatment (copper-based aerogel) and copper oxide aerogel were both characterized and analyzed. Based on studies of the gelation mechanism, it was demonstrated that polyacrylic acid guides the sol formation including providing a steric effect. Analysis of the thermal treatment process shows that the copper-based aerogel has four primary thermal reactions and the major composition of samples treated above 420 °C is monoclinic copper oxide.
