Insulation – ECO-AEROGELS made from recycled materials like silica, cellulose and plastic can be used as highly effective thermal and acoustic insulation. It has higher insulation performance compared to traditional materials like fibreglass and foam. It can be used as insulation in buildings, pipes, vehicles, apparel and footwear.
Insulation for aircraft – ECO-AEROGELS are used as lightweight thermal and acoustic insulators for aircraft structures and systems to reduce heat transfer, lower temperature differences and noise levels, improving passenger comfort and aircraft efficiency. ECO-AEROGELS serve as effective fire barriers in aircraft wiring, components and structures to withstand high temperatures while maintaining integrity.
Thermal protectors – ECO-AEROGELS provide effective thermal insulation for pipes carrying high temperature fluids in industrial and commercial heating systems to reduce heat losses and improve efficiency. ECO-AEROGELS blankets insulate boilers, ovens and furnaces to minimize heat losses through walls and doors, enhancing system efficiency. ECO-AEROGELS also protect workers from contacting hot surfaces of heaters, boilers and industrial ovens due to their high temperature resistance and low thermal conductivity.
Paints and coatings – Coatings containing ECO-AEROGELS particles can offer improved efficiency by reflecting infrared radiation, absorbing UV rays and being self-cleaning. They have applications in construction, transportation and outdoor equipment.
Oil and chemical spill absorption – ECO-AEROGELS synthesized from recycled waste like cellulose and agricultural residues can efficiently absorb oil spills and chemical contaminants from soil and water. It has a high absorption capacity.
Filtration – The nano-scale pores of ECO-AEROGELS allow them to be used as effective filters for liquids, gases and particles. They can be used as filters in applications like water purification and air filtration.
Electrical components – ECO-AEROGELS made from recycled sources like carbon fibers exhibit electrical conductivity and can be used in electronics like capacitors, batteries and sensors.
Cosmetics and personal care – ECO-AEROGELS synthesized from recycled waste are used as active ingredients in skin care products due to their oil-absorbing, moisture-regulating and anti-caking properties.
Biomedical uses – ECO-AEROGELS derived from recycled biosources have potential uses as scaffold materials for tissue engineering and as drug delivery agents due to their biocompatibility, porosity and surface area.
