The thermal conductivity is lower than that of still air, providing several times the insulation effect compared to common insulating materials such as ceramic fibers and calcium silicate.
<Features>
1. The thermal conductivity is 0.021 W/m·K, which is lower than that of still air, providing several times the insulation effect compared to common insulation materials such as ceramic fiber and calcium silicate. This allows for a reduction in the thickness of the insulation material compared to conventional insulation, enabling the miniaturization of devices.
2. The temperature dependence is extremely low, and even with an increase in operating temperature, there is little change in thermal conductivity, resulting in minimal variation in insulation effectiveness.
3. Composed of ultra-fine fumed silica and materials that do not transmit infrared radiation, it also features a fine micro-pore structure that restricts the movement of air molecules. Unlike traditional insulation materials that merely trap air, it controls the transfer of heat through "solid conduction," "air molecule movement," and "infrared transmission," achieving a thermal conductivity that surpasses still air at 0.021 W/m·K.
4. It is a soft and fragile material, making it difficult to use as a structural material; however, it does not deform unless subjected to external pressure.
