Panels

active-aerogel-panel-range-ma001-300pxAeroflex is a synthetic, porous, ultralight composite material that offers exceptional properties suitable for a variety of high performance insulation applications. These can be applied as thermal insulation on oil ducts, pipelines, buildings, atmospheric balloons, re-entry vehicles, launchers, among others.

 

Aeroflex nanoporous structures are based on monolithic aerogels, thus presenting intrinsic advantages over competing solutions, such as:

  • higher hydrophobicity;
  • lower density;
  • reduced particle shedding;
  • higher thermal insulation;
  • smaller bending radius.active-aerogel-panel-blanket-ma001-300px
