摘要
Since the discovery of nanoporous materials (aerogel)in 1931,there is no doubt that this material is classified as a super-insulator with the highest insulation value of any known material with the lowest thermal conductivity value of any solid.Unfortunately,the application of aerogel is severely limited due to the difficulty of handling.After eight years of research and efforts,Beijing Matrix Technologies Co.,Ltd.has met the world challenge on the combination of mechanical strength and thermal insulation.
