Silica Aerogel Blanket

Flexible insulation delivering high thermal performance and heat resistance at a slim thickness

Silica Aerogel Blanket

A high-performance insulation material that applies nano silica aerogel to a glass-fiber felt. Thermal conductivity is 0.021 W/m·K at 25℃, maximum service temperature 650℃, hydrophobicity above 98%, and expected service life more than 20 years. Standard thicknesses are 3–10 mm, with 1–30 mm available on request.

Overview

What is an aerogel blanket?

Flexible thermal insulation combining the insulating performance of aerogel with a reinforced blanket structure.

A high-performance insulation solution that applies nano silica aerogel to a flexible felt structure. The nano-porous structure of the aerogel helps reduce heat transfer, and combining it with glass-fiber felt yields a form that is easy to handle on site.

As a blanket based on reinforced silica aerogel, it can be considered for a wide range of applications — secondary batteries and ESS, building insulation, pipelines — offering low thermal conductivity together with excellent flexibility.

Key features

  • Low thermal conductivity from the porous structure of aerogel
  • Service temperature up to around 650℃ and an A2 fire rating
  • Hydrophobicity above 98%, reducing the effect of moisture
  • Excellent flexibility with a useful degree of mechanical strength
  • Custom cutting and thickness available on request

Features

Six strengths

Excellent insulation (Low Thermal Conductivity)

Effective at reducing heat loss even at a slim thickness, making it applicable to piping, plant, tanks, and high-temperature sections.

Flexible installation (Flexible Blanket)

Its blanket form allows wrap-around installation on curved surfaces, piping, and complex equipment surfaces.

Lightweight construction (Light Weight)

Lighter than conventional thick insulation, reducing both equipment load and the space required for installation.

High-temperature service (High Temperature)

Can be considered for sites requiring thermal management, such as industrial plant, heat treatment lines, and high-temperature piping.

Condensation control (Condensation Control)

Can be used to reduce surface condensation on piping and equipment subject to temperature differentials.

Energy saving (Energy Saving)

Reducing heat loss can improve operating efficiency and lower maintenance costs.

Applications

Applications

We review the appropriate specification according to on-site temperature conditions, the space involved, the installation method, and the required thickness.

Industrial pipe insulationCan be considered for heat retention and cold retention on steam piping, high-temperature piping, hot and cold water piping, and plant piping.
Equipment and tank insulationApplicable to equipment where heat loss must be reduced, such as industrial tanks, reactors, storage vessels, and heat treatment plant.
High-temperature equipment protectionSuited to environments requiring worker safety around high-temperature sections, lower surface temperatures, and protection of nearby devices.
Building and specialty insulationCan be considered for specialty building and equipment insulation where space is tight and a thin insulation layer is required.

Safety

Handling and storage

  • Take care to avoid dust inhalation and contact with skin or eyes
  • Protective equipment such as gloves, a mask, and safety goggles is recommended
  • Ventilation is required in production and use environments
  • Store dry in a sealed container, away from volatile substances
  • Keep sharp objects away from the packaging
