Summary:Disclosed is a method for producing an organic polymer aerogel and corresponding aerogels and articles of manufacture comprising such aerogels. The method can include polymerizing an organic polymerizable material in the presence of an organic solvent having a high vapor pressure and/or a low boiling point to obtain an organic polymer gel comprising an organic polymer matrix and the organic solvent, and subcritical or ambient drying the organic polymer gel under conditions suitable to remove the step (a) organic solvent and form an organic polymer aerogel.
