DESCRIPTION
Aerogel for Thermal Insulation
Highly efficient, lightweight,
and transparent Aerogels are the best thermal insulators available today. Two
organic aerogels developed at LLNL have equivalent R values of 12 when
air-filled (equivalent to the insulating capacity of 6 in. of fiberglass
batting) and greater than 38 when evacuated (equivalent to 19 in.
of fiberglass).
