Abstract
- Silk fibroin aerogels are synthesized using sol-gel and supercritical CO2 technology.
- SF aerogels are loaded with â¼21Â wt% of ibuprofen using supercritical CO2.
- Greater than 99.98Â wt% of ibuprofen is in the amorphous form.
- The ibuprofen release from SF aerogels occurs over a period of 6Â h.
- Release of ibuprofen from SF aerogels is governed by Fickian diffusion.
