Aerogel coatings: A nanoscale all - around protection solution that redefines surface thermal insulation

### I. Core Performance: Rewrite the Surface Protection Standard

1. **Ultimate Thermal Insulation: Subverting Tradition with Millimeter - level Thickness**

  - **Exceptionally Low Thermal Conductivity**: The thermal conductivity is as low as 0.015W/(m·K), which is only 1/10 of traditional paint and 1/3 of rock wool. A 2 - mm coating is equivalent to the heat - preservation effect of a 3 - cm rock - wool board, reducing heat transfer from the source.

  - **Wide - temperature - range Adaptability**: It maintains structural stability in a liquid nitrogen environment of - 200°C. When facing a 1300°C propane flame, the temperature rise rate of the back - side surface is ≤2.8°C/min, meeting the extreme - temperature protection requirements of the aerospace level.

2. **Safety Protection: Dual Insurance of Fire - proof and Hydrophobic**

  - **A1 - grade Non - combustible Certification**: Passed the UL - 1709 fire - resistance test. It does not burn or drip when exposed to an open flame, blocking the spread of fire. It is especially suitable for high - risk scenarios such as petrochemical and power industries.

  - **99% Hydrophobic Rate**: The nano - level pore structure repels water vapor. The surface water absorption rate is <5%. In high - humidity coastal areas and low - temperature cold - storage environments, it prevents the formation of condensed water and extends the service life of the base material by more than 30%.

3. **Lightweight and Durable: Achieving Both Lightweight and Long - life**

  - **Thin Coating**: The coating thickness is only 0.5 - 3mm, and the weight is less than 1/5 of the traditional insulation layer. It is suitable for scenarios sensitive to weight, such as drones and new - energy vehicles, improving the load - carrying efficiency.

  - **Excellent Anti - aging Performance**: After 2000 - hour weathering tests, the coating has no cracking or powdering. Its outdoor service life reaches 15 years, which is 3 times that of ordinary coatings.

4. **Intelligent Adaptation: Multi - substrate Compatibility and Functional Expansion**

  - **Universal Adhesion**: It can firmly adhere to materials such as metals, concrete, glass, and plastics without complex pretreatment, increasing construction efficiency by 50%.

  - **Customized Formulation**: According to requirements, functions such as antibacterial, conductive, and self - cleaning can be added. For example, the special coating for photovoltaic panels can reduce the component temperature by 5°C and increase the power generation efficiency by 3%.

### II. Diverse Scenarios: Omnipotent Applications from Buildings to Aerospace

1. **Building Energy Efficiency: Making Every Wall “Temperature - control”**

  - **Exterior Wall Insulation**: In passive - house projects, a 2 - mm aerogel coating replaces a 10 - cm traditional insulation layer. The indoor temperature difference fluctuation is ≤3°C, the winter heating energy consumption is reduced by 40%, and it does not occupy indoor space. It is especially suitable for the “flat - to - pitched roof” renovation of old buildings.

  - **Roof Insulation**: It reflects 30% of solar radiation, cools the top - floor in summer by 8°C, reduces air - conditioning load. When combined with a waterproof coating, it forms an “insulation + waterproof” integrated solution, shortening the construction period by 40%.

2. **Industrial Protection: The “Cool Armor” for High - temperature Equipment**

  - **Pipe and Tank Insulation**: On the 500°C high - temperature pipes in an oil refinery, the coating reduces heat loss by 60%, and the surface temperature drops from 80°C to 45°C, avoiding the risk of worker burns. In the - 162°C environment of an LNG storage tank, it eliminates the cold - bridge effect and doubles the cold - preservation efficiency.

  - **Power Equipment Protection**: The coating on the surface of transformers and charging piles can withstand a temperature rise of 200°C, preventing insulation aging and extending the equipment life by 20%. At the same time, it has anti - corona discharge performance, ensuring safety in high - voltage environments.

3. **Electronics and New Energy: Micro - space Thermal Management Expert**

  - **5G Base - station Heat Dissipation**: A 0.3 - mm coating on the chip surface quickly conducts heat away, reducing the junction temperature by 12°C, solving the overheating problem of high - density integrated circuits and improving equipment stability.

  - **Power - battery Thermal Insulation**: At a low temperature of - 30°C, the coating ensures that the temperature difference of the battery pack is ≤5°C, increases the charge - discharge efficiency by 15%, reduces the risk of thermal runaway of lithium - ion batteries, and has been applied to the battery pack of a domestic electric vehicle brand.

4. **Special Scenarios: Survival Guarantee in Extreme Environments**

  - **Aerospace and Military**: The coating on the satellite surface resists the space low - temperature of - 190°C and the high - temperature of 150°C from sunlight, ensuring the operation of precision instruments. The coating on military vehicles reduces the infrared signal characteristics, improving concealment.

  - **Cold - chain Logistics**: The coating on the inner wall of refrigerated trucks makes the temperature fluctuation in the box ≤1°C. It replaces the traditional foam insulation layer, reduces the weight by 30%, increases the cruising range by 10%, and helps to control the temperature throughout the transportation of vaccines and fresh products.

### III. Technological Advantages: Nano - technology Shaping the Core Competitiveness

1. **Nano - pore Thermal Insulation Principle**

  - Aerogel particles form a three - dimensional nano - network (pore diameter 2 - 50nm), restricting the movement of air molecules and blocking convective heat transfer. The nano - skeleton structure extends the heat - conduction path, increasing the thermal resistance by 5 times compared with traditional materials.

2. **Environmental - friendliness and Construction - friendliness**

  - **Water - based Formula**: The water - based formula has no VOC emissions, passes the EU REACH certification, and has no pungent odor during construction. It is suitable for environmentally sensitive places such as hospitals and schools.

  - **Room - temperature Curing Technology**: There is no need for high - temperature baking. It can be constructed in an environment of - 10°C to 40°C, adapting to on - site spraying of large - scale outdoor components. The daily construction area of a single work team can reach 500㎡.

3. **International Certifications and Customization Capabilities**

  - **Certifications and Standards**: It has passed the ISO 1716 fire - resistance test and ASTM C177 thermal - conductivity certification, and complies with the US ICC - ES and EU ETAG 004 standards, supporting the compliance of global projects.

•   - **Full - chain Service**: It provides a full - chain service from laboratory samples to ten - thousand - ton - level mass production. The density (10 - 50kg/m³), color, and special functions can be customized according to customer requirements.
