The microstructure of silica aerogel under an electron microscope with a magnification of 800 times

Aerogel, whose properties have set 15 Guinness records, is known as "a magical material that can change the world." It is a dual-use technology with huge application value, and is used in national defense and military industry, energy conservation and environmental protection, green buildings, intelligent manufacturing, and orbit. It has broad application prospects in transportation, clean energy, petrochemical industry, automobile and other fields.

Aerogels have many characteristics that can subvert traditional technologies, and new excellent properties are constantly being discovered. Aerogel has 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 hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity, and adjustable nano-mesopore size. Control and other characteristics make it have many functions such as super adsorption, energy absorption, heat and cold insulation, noise isolation, radiation barrier, insulation, high voltage withstand, waterproof, catalysis, slow release and so on. It can be seen that there has never been a material with so many excellent properties. No wonder the scientific community around the world is constantly working hard for it.
