Particle and beads aerogels offer a range of potential applications, namely:

• multipactor suppression using dielectric filling techniques;
• hydrocarbons absorption.

 

These aerogels are nanoporous structures with properties such as such as:

• high hydrophobicity;
• high surface area;
• high electrical insulation.
