Egg Aerogel Particles
$80
These unique egg bio-polymer materials from Aerogelex are made from real hard-boiled eggs. These materials are like normal aerogels, but the solid nanostructure is made of the natural protiens inside the egg that 'gelled' when it was hard-boiled. These materials are great for scientific applications such as for high surface area substrates for biological research. Density is approximately 0.6 g/cc making Aeroeggs approximately 50% air by volume. Each vial contains one whole egg worth of particles, approximately 15cc.

Looking for monolithic egg aerogels? We also sell Aeroeggs here.
Egg aerogels are not edible. Do not eat. Although these particles are made from real eggs and in principle egg aerogels could be eaten if prepared properly, these aerogels are supercritically dried in industrial equipment that processes chemicals and that is not food grade making them not edible.
