Aerogel, the lightest solid and the lowest thermal conductivity nano porous structure material in the world, has set 15 Guinness records in its characteristics and is called "the magic material that can change the world". It is a dual-use technology with great application value, and has broad application prospects in the fields of national defense and military industry, energy conservation and environmental protection, green buildings, intelligent manufacturing, rail transit, clean energy, petrochemical industry, automobiles, etc.

Aerogel has many characteristics that can subvert the traditional technology, and new excellent characteristics are constantly discovered. The characteristics of aerogels such as high specific surface area, high porosity, ultra-low density, extremely low thermal conductivity, low sound speed, low refractive index, low dielectric constant and high dielectric strength, controllable hydrophobic hydrophilicity, controllable size of nano mesopores, etc. make them have many functions such as super adsorption, energy absorption, thermal insulation, cold insulation, noise isolation, radiation barrier, insulation, withstand high voltage, waterproof, catalytic, slow release, etc.
