Technical Superiority
The unique performance of this slurry is attributed to the incorporation of aerogel nanoparticles, known for their exceptionally low thermal conductivity. With a low density of 0.40 to 0.55 kg/L and thermal conductivity as low as 0.038 W/(m·K), the Aerogel-Based Waterborne Thermal Insulation Slurry outperforms conventional insulation materials, offering superior thermal insulation and heat retention even in extreme conditions.
In addition, the slurry dries to a matte appearance and offers good adhesion to various substrates, with an adhesive strength of 2.0 MPa. It also demonstrates excellent environmental resistance, maintaining its properties after 1000 hours of water immersion and salt spray testing. This makes it ideal for applications in humid and corrosive environments. The slurry also exhibits moderate to strong abrasion resistance, making it well-suited for industrial settings where mechanical wear and tear are common.
