Characterization of mechanical, thermal and acoustic properties of novel aerogel composites

Silica aerogels (SA) are very light and highly porous materials that are intriguingly and complexly networked with large internal surface area, high hydrophobicity with extremely low density and thermal conductivity. These features make them an ideal choice for applications as thermal and acoustics...
