High-Temperature Aerogel Insulation Blanket
Alfa Chemistry's high-temperature aerogel insulation blanket is an advanced thermal insulation solution engineered for industrial applications requiring extreme temperature resistance and superior thermal performance. This next-generation insulation material is composed of nanoporous silica (SiO2) aerogel as the core component, reinforced with a blend of inorganic fibers such as fiberglass and ceramic fiber. Its ultra-low thermal conductivity and lightweight flexible form make it ideal for energy-efficient thermal management in high-temperature systems operating up to 650°C.

Key Features and Performance Advantages
Exceptional Thermal Insulation at High Temperatures
The core innovation lies in the use of nanoporous SiO2 aerogel, known for being one of the lowest thermal conductivity solids in the world. Even at elevated temperatures, the aerogel blanket maintains its insulation performance. This outstanding insulation capability ensures minimized heat loss and maximized energy savings across a range of industrial processes.
Space-Saving Design and Low Thermal Bridging
The aerogel blanket can perform as conventional insulation materials at 1/5 to 1/3 thickness. By taking up much less space, it reduces the weight and makes installation easier. Its thermal bridging at overlap and joints is significantly reduced. The material can be cut and tailored to intricate shapes to meet the requirements of prefabricated modules as well as onsite applications.
Superior Hydrophobicity
The blanket features hydrophobicity ≥99%, and thus provides reliable moisture and humidity resistance. It is able to keep the substrates free from corrosion under insulation (CUI), prolonging the service life of vital infrastructures, particularly for steam pipes, petrochemical equipment, and marine applications.
Non-Combustible and Fire Resistant
With Class A flame resistance, the product can effectively suppress the fire spread. As a protection thermal barrier, it can be applied in high-risk fields like electric vehicles, high-speed trains, and offshore equipment.
Mechanical Durability and Dimensional Stability
Engineered for long-term use, the insulation blanket demonstrates high mechanical integrity under thermal and mechanical stress. Its excellent elasticity, combined with a stable inorganic matrix, ensures durability across thermal cycling and mechanical vibration.
Environmentally Safe and Reusable
The product is made of safe materials without any asbestos, benzene, or formaldehyde and is thus non-toxic, non-corrosive, and environment-friendly. After usage, it can be either reused or disposed of with zero industrial waste.
Application Areas
Alfa Chemistry's high-temperature aerogel blanket is designed for a wide range of high-performance thermal insulation applications, including:

FAQs
1. Can this aerogel blanket be used in direct contact with fire?
While the product is non-combustible and has Class A flame resistance, it is designed as a fire barrier rather than for direct flame exposure.
2. How does this compare with traditional mineral wool or calcium silicate insulation?
It delivers equivalent or superior thermal insulation at significantly lower thickness, offers better flexibility, and has a much higher hydrophobicity and service life.
3. Is the product suitable for cryogenic applications?
This specific product is optimized for high-temperature insulation. For cryogenic uses, please consult Alfa Chemistry for alternative aerogel formulations.
4. Can the blanket be used in confined spaces?
Yes. Its thin profile and flexibility make it ideal for compact or irregularly shaped installations.
5. Is the product reusable after disassembly?
Yes. Thanks to its durability and non-fibrous structure, the blanket can often be reused if handled properly during removal.
6. Does it release any toxic fumes at high temperatures?
No. It is made from inorganic and non-toxic materials and does not release harmful gases during use.
7. What's the lead time for custom-sized orders?
Custom dimensions typically require 1–2 weeks for production, depending on order volume.
8. Is the material electrically conductive?
No. The aerogel insulation blanket is non-conductive and suitable for electrical insulation in high-temperature systems.
