AIRG-9080M is a high-loading hydrophobic silica aerogel powder with a D90 particle size of 60–80 μm, designed for coatings, composites and lightweight insulation formulations.
AIRG-9080M is a hydrophobic silica aerogel powder engineered for use as a high-performance thermal insulation additive in coatings, composite materials, lightweight fillers, and advanced thermal management systems.
Featuring an ultra-high porosity structure exceeding 90% and nanopores typically below 30 nm, AIRG-9080M significantly reduces heat transfer by suppressing gaseous thermal conduction. The material delivers a thermal conductivity below 0.018 W/(m·K) at room temperature while maintaining exceptionally low density.
As a coarse-grade aerogel powder with a D90 particle size of 60–80 μm, AIRG-9080M is optimized for formulations requiring higher aerogel loading levels, improved handling characteristics, lightweight performance, and efficient thermal insulation.
The product is particularly suitable for industrial applications where thermal efficiency, formulation stability, and cost-effective aerogel utilization must be balanced.
Traditional mineral fillers often increase formulation weight while providing limited thermal insulation performance. AIRG-9080M offers an alternative approach by combining ultra-low thermal conductivity with extremely low density, enabling manufacturers to improve insulation performance without significantly increasing product weight.
