What is Aerogel?

Aerogel is a general term for a class of nanoporous materials.

Its skeleton is a three-dimensional network structure composed of nano-particles, filled with a gas dispersion

medium. This special nanoporous structure has unique thermal, optical, electrical and other properties.

Also known as frozen smoke or blue smoke, it is the lightest solid in the world. It has great potential market in

the fields of heat insulation, adsorption, catalysis, etc.

Aeroge usually is for SiO2 Aerogel, which has best performance as follows,

Material: SiO2. It has long-lasting and stable chemical properties and non-combustibility.

Specific surface area： 800-1000 m2/g

Hydrophobicity：＞99%。 Excellent water resistance.

Super Light：0.04-0.10g/cm3

Thermal conductivity：0.013-0.016W/m·K（25℃）。Extremely excellent thermal insulation properties.

The average aperture is 18nm, which is much smaller than the air free range of 70nm. The air loses its ability to flow freely.

Porosity>90%.The porous network structure locks in air molecules, greatly reducing the formation of air thermal convection.

Nanoporous structure: high compressive strength, long-lasting and stable structure.

Three-dimensional skeleton structure: an “infinite path" of heat transfer is formed, which effectively inhibits the energy transmission

of air molecules.
