silica aerogel is the lightest solid material known at present, showing unique properties in mechanics, acoustics, heat, optics and so on. it has a wide and huge application prospect in many fields, such as aerospace, military, communications, medicine, building materials, electronics, metallurgy and so on. it is called “magic material to change the world “. silica aerogels are by far the best materials for thermal insulation, and their pore size is lower than the average free path of air molecules under atmospheric pressure, so the air molecules are approximately stationary in the aerogel voids, thus avoiding the convection heat transfer of air. The extremely low bulk density of aerogels and the bending path of nano-grid structures also prevent gaseous and solid heat conduction. These three aspects work together to block almost all the ways of heat transfer, so that aerogels can achieve unparalleled adiabatic effect of other materials, even far lower than the thermal conductivity of static air 0.025 W/m.K at room temperature, reaching below 0.013 W/m.K.
