Aerogel - Global Industry Market Analysis Report 2020-2031

Aerogel is an ultra-light, porous solid material, usually made of silica, carbon or metal oxides. It has extremely low density (as low as 0.001 g/cm³), high specific surface area and excellent thermal insulation. It is widely used in building insulation, aerospace, energy storage and environmental protection. Its production is usually prepared by a sol-gel process, followed by supercritical drying to remove the liquid and retain the nano-scale pore structure. Aerogel is used as a highly efficient thermal insulation material in construction, thermal insulation tiles in aerospace, and battery separators or catalyst carriers in the energy field. It has attracted attention for its low thermal conductivity and high porosity.

Aerogel's application has performed well in high-tech fields, but its advantages and disadvantages have sparked discussions. Supporters believe that its ultra-light and efficient insulation properties give it great potential in the field of energy conservation and weight reduction. For example, in construction, aerogel insulation boards can significantly reduce energy consumption and meet green building standards. In aerospace, its lightweight properties reduce fuel consumption. However, critics point out that the high production cost of aerogel and the complex and energy-consuming supercritical drying process may limit its large-scale application. In addition, its mechanical strength is low, and its fragility may affect its service life, so it needs to be reinforced by composite materials. Some users have reported that the hydrophobic treatment of aerogels may degrade over time, affecting long-term performance.

In terms of the market, the demand for aerogels is closely related to the growth of green buildings and new energy. Asia, especially China, has become a major market due to its building energy-saving policies and new energy investment. The North American and European markets focus on high-end applications, such as aerospace and high-end insulation materials. The growth of market demand is driven by carbon neutrality goals. However, the market faces challenges, such as high barriers to production equipment and technology, and the supply of raw materials may be unstable.

In the future, the development of aerogels may focus on cost reduction and performance improvement. The development of atmospheric pressure drying processes and enhanced composite aerogels may reduce costs and improve strength. In the field of new energy, such as lithium battery insulation layers, its potential is worth exploring. However, the industry needs to cope with the difficulty of large-scale production and the restrictions of environmental regulations. Overall, the status of aerogels in the high-tech field will be improved, but it needs to be supported by technological breakthroughs.
