Ice-templating is a simple materials processing and shaping route where the growth of crystals from a solvent template the porosity. Although the principles of ice-templating were established a long time ago, it has lured considerable attention over the past 5 years to become a well-established processing route for porous materials of all kinds. In this viewpoint, I summarize the current status and recent trends of ice-templating studies. I then review the unique assets of ice-templating and propose a roadmap of the most promising or pressing questions and opportunities in this domain.

冰模板的诱惑：多孔材料的最新趋势和机遇

冰模板是一种简单的材料加工和成型路线，其中来自溶剂的晶体生长模板孔隙率。虽然冰模板化的原理很早以前就确立了，但在过去的 5 年里，它已经引起了相当大的关注，成为各种多孔材料的成熟加工路线。在此观点下，我总结了冰模板研究的现状和最新趋势。然后，我回顾了冰模板的独特资产，并提出了该领域最有前途或最紧迫的问题和机会的路线图。
