Application: Thin aerogel materials (Patent ID: US20240213593A1)
The patent filed by Aspen Aerogels Inc. describes a fiber-reinforced aerogel material that can be used for insulation, offering high durability, flexibility, and superior thermal performance compared to existing insulation materials. The material can be as thin as 1 mm with a thickness variation of 2% or less. The patent also details a method for enhancing battery performance by integrating the reinforced aerogel material into the battery, as well as a casting method for producing thin fiber-reinforced aerogel materials.
The method outlined in the patent involves combining a sol-gel solution and a reinforcement material, applying pressure to define the thickness of the resulting composite, allowing it to form a reinforced gel composite, and then drying it to create a reinforced aerogel composite. The reinforced aerogel composite can have a thickness ranging from 0.75 mm to 10 mm with a thickness variation of less than 15%. Various reinforcement materials such as open-cell foam, fiber materials like glass-based, silica-based, ceramic, or PAN fibers can be used. The resulting aerogel composition exhibits a low thermal conductivity of 25 mW/mK or less, making it suitable for battery thermal insulation applications with a thickness between 1 mm and 2 mm.
