What are aerogels used for?
1, nano-aerogels have the characteristics of low density and thermal insulation, so they can be widely used as thermal insulation materials in military and aerospace fields, thermal batteries, industrial and building thermal insulation, solar water heaters and other fields.
2. Aerogels have the advantages of small particle size and large specific surface area, and nano-aerogels can be used as catalysts and catalytic carriers, gas or liquid adsorbents.
3. Nano-aerogels have high calorific value, are waterproof after burning and will not pollute the environment, so aerogels can be used as hydrogen storage materials.
4. Aerogel has low dielectric constant and high specific surface area, so it can be widely used in various fields of electrochemistry.
5. Nano-aerogel has excellent thermal insulation performance, so it is widely used in daily life, and can be used to make cold-proof appliances, cosmetics, toothpaste, ink, sporting goods and many other aspects.
In addition, nano-aerogels are widely used in other fields, such as advanced technology detectors.
