What is aerogel powder? The density ofaerogel powder is 3kg/m3. The commonly used aerogel powder is silica aerogel, first made by American scientific worker Kistler in 1931 with friends. There are many kinds of aerogels, such as silicon, carbon, sulfur, metal oxides, metals, etc. As long as the gel can remove any substance after drying, the shape of the material remains unchanged, and the product has high porosity and low density; it can be called aerogel.
Application of aerogel powder As a concrete additive: aerogel can also be used to reduce the thermal conductivity of concrete. When different amounts of hydrophobic or hydrophilic silica aerogel powder are added to the concrete base material, the thermal conductivity of concrete blocks will decrease with the increase in silica aerogel powder content. Still, the compressive strength will decrease, and the shrinkage rate will also increase. According to this feature, the concrete added with SiO2 aerogel can be used for nonbearing walls, and a cement mortar can be used as a bonding agent. With the development of concrete additives, additives can be added to supplement the lost mechanical properties.
Characteristics of ultra-light gas gel powder Scientists claim that the basic preparation principle of aerogel is to remove the solvent in the gel and leave it with a complete skeleton. In previous cases of preparing aerogels, scientists mainly used sol-gel and template-oriented methods. The former can be synthesized in batches, but its controllability is poor; The latter can produce an ordered structure but depends on the fine structure and size of the template, which is difficult to prepare in large quantities. The Gaochao research group explored a new way to develop a template-free freeze-drying method: freeze-dry the aqueous solution dissolved in graphene and carbon nanotubes at low temperatures to obtain a "carbon sponge," which can be arbitrarily adjusted in shape, making the production process more convenient, and also making the large-scale manufacturing and application of this ultra-light material possible.
Price of aerogel powder Aerogel powder particle size and purity will affect the product's Price, and the purchase volume can also affect the cost of aerogel powder. A large amount of large amount will be lower. The Price of aerogel powder can be found on our company's official website.
