Abstract
Compositions include an aerogel component and have low thermal conductivity. Methods for preparing slurries or composites include, for example combining the aerogel component with a surfactant, binder and other ingredients, such as, for instance, fibers. The compositions can be slurries that can be used in coating applications or self supporting rigid composites.
Claims1
A composite comprising:
- a) an aerogel component;
- b) a binder selected from the group consisting of cement, gypsum, lime, and any combination thereof;
- and
- c) a surfactant,
- wherein the composite has a thermal conductivity not greater than about 30 mW/(m·K), measured according to ASTM C518 and wherein the composite does not include fibers.
