Summary: Known as frozen smoke, solid smoke, solid air or blue smoke, aerogel is the best thermal insulator and the lightest solid of any present-known substance in that over 90% of its volume is constituted of air in extremely tiny nano-pores while the rest is composed of clusters interwined with three-dimensional, small silica solids.
After years of continual research and study, Guangdong Alison developed an economical approach to produce aerogel that can be used for industrial insulation as well as other purposes.
