Aerogel Blankets: Flexible Nanoporous Insulators for High-Performance Thermal Management aspen spaceloft
1. Fundamental Framework and Material Structure 1.1 The Nanoscale Architecture of Aerogels (Aerogel Blanket) Aerogel coverings are sophisticated thermal insulation materials built upon an one-of-a-kind nanostructured structure, where a strong silica or polymer network extends an ultra-high porosity volume– commonly going beyond 90% air. This structure originates from the sol-gel process, in which a fluid…
