Mechanical and thermal performance of aerogel-filled sandwich panels for building insulation
Monolithic silica aerogels provide exceptional thermal insulation but have low mechanical properties. For instance, their flexural strength is typically 0.03–0.08 MPa. Here, we report on the development of a truss-core sandwich panel filled with compacted aerogel granules, designed to provide both m...
