landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the
key vendors operating in this market.
Aerogel is a synthetic porous ultralight material derived from a gel, in which the liquid component of the
gel has been replaced with a gas.The result is a solid with extremely low density and low thermal
conductivity. Nicknames include frozen smoke, solid smoke, solid air, or blue smoke owing to its
translucent nature and the way light scatters in the material. It feels like fragile expanded polystyrene to
the touch. Aerogels can be made from a variety of chemical compounds.
Aerogel was first created by Samuel Stephens Kistler in 1931, as a result of a bet with Charles Learned
over who could replace the liquid in "jellies" with gas without causing shrinkage. Aerogels are produced
by extracting the liquid component of a gel through supercritical drying. This allows the liquid to be
slowly dried off without causing the solid matrix in the gel to collapse from capillary action, as would
happen with conventional evaporation. The first aerogels were produced from silica gels. Kistler's later
work involved aerogels based on alumina, chromia and tin dioxide. Carbon aerogels were first
developed in the late 1980s. Aerogel does not have a designated material with set chemical formula but
the term is used to group all the material with a certain geometric structure.
