Synthesis, Structural and Thermal Properties of Nano-porous SiO2-based Aerogels
Nano-porous silica aerogels are unique materials often having a high specific surface area, a high porosity (75-99%), a low thermal conductivity (0.01-0.03W/mK), and a low index of refraction. Because of their unique properties, aerogels have been extensively studied, not only for use as transparent thermal insulators but also as inter-metal dielectric materials, optical and acoustic applicatio...
متن کاملCharacterization of Mechanical Properties of Silica Aerogels
Silica aerogels are nanoporous ultralight new materials with extraordinary material properties. In this study, the mechanical properties of silica aerogels, e.g. Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio and constitutive relation, are investigated using Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations and theoretical analysis. In molecular dynamics simulations, an improved process of negative pressure rupturing meth...
متن کاملIntegration of Silica Aerogels in Microfluidic Chips
This paper reports a method to integrate silica aerogels monolithically in microfluidic chips. Silica Aerogel is a highly porous bulk material. The gel was synthesized from tetraethyl orthosilicate by a sol-gel process. Polyethylene glycol and an extended aging period were used to strengthen the matrix minimizing gel shrinkage. This technique allows alcogel structures with high strength and sti...
متن کاملLow-cost and fast synthesis of nanoporous silica cryogels for thermal insulation applications.
Nanoporous silica cryogels with a high specific surface area of 1095 m2 g-1 were fabricated using tert-butyl alcohol as a reaction solvent, via a cost-effective sol-gel process followed by vacuum freeze drying. The total time of cryogel production was reduced markedly to one day. The molar ratio of solvent/precursor, which was varied from 5 to 13, significantly affected the porous structure and...
متن کاملNUMERICAL TECHNIQUES FOR DIFFERENT THERMAL INSULATION MATERIALS
The objective of this work is to predict the temperature of the different types of walls which are Ferro cement wall, reinforced cement concrete (RCC) wall and two types of cavity walls (combined RCC with Ferrocement and combined two Ferro cement walls) with the help of mathematical modeling. The property of low thermal transmission of small air gap between the constituents of combine materials...
