Category: Insulation - Heat/Frost
Description:
Pyrogel® XTF aerogel blanket insulation is designed to provide exceptional passive fire protection and superior thermal performance in a thin, lightweight format.
Typical Use:
Large-bore piping, vessels, and skirts.
Apparent use of Nanotechnology: small nanopores
Reason for Inclusion:
"The solids in silica aerogels are poor conductors, consist of very small, three-dimensional, intertwined clusters that comprise only 3% of the volume. Conduction through the solid is therefore very low. The remaining 97% of the volume of aerogels is composed of air in extremely small nanopores." -Retrieved 12/9/2020 from https://www.aerogel.com/resources/about-aerogel/
