| I knew aerogel could trap small moving objects, but I had no idea it was such a good insulator. |
|
| An aerogel is a porous network of silica strands with diameters of a few nanometres. |
|
| A tennis racket-shaped canister packed with a material called aerogel will capture the particles during the flyby. |
|
| South, east, and west walls are polycarbonate panels filled with aerogel insulation. |
|
| Vacuum, aerogel and electrochromic glazing: These technologies are new to the market and are not widely available. |
|
| There, in the presence of an iron catalyst, the gas coalesces into a sticky substance akin to candyfloss, called an aerogel. |
|
| Sheet, characterised in that it is coated on at least one side with an aerogel layer and in that the aerogels exhibit hydrophobic surface groups. |
|
| In Mr Janas's aerogel, however, they are no longer than 1mm each, with air in between them. |
|
| By polarizing the cells, ions are removed from the electrolyte and are held in the electric double layers formed at the carbon aerogel surfaces of the electrodes. |
|
| To use the aerogel as a display, external magnetic fields would be used to flip the needles back and forth. |
|
| Products combining pyrethrin and silica aerogel are also available for the control of roaches. |
|
| A sugar-cube-sized piece of aerogel made of carbon material may have an internal surface area of as much as 2 000 square metres. |
|
| The applicability of this composite aerogel as a useful photocatalyst is examined in wastewater containing salicylic acid. |
|
| A flower lies on a piece of aerogel and is heated with a Bunsen burner. |
|
| Silica aerogel is usually combined with pyrethrin. |
|
| The pyrethrin component provides a quick knockdown of roaches while silica aerogel works like diatomaceous earth, causing the insects to slowly dehydrate and die. |
|
| What is difficult is stirring in enough magnetic molecules for the resulting aerogel to be useful without disrupting the formation of the aerogel or rendering it opaque. |
|
| When an iron poker is inserted into the furnace, the aerogel sticks to it. |
|
| Filling the pores in the aerogel with plastic should remove its fragility and, conversely, the network of clay molecules in the aerogel will stop the plastic cracking. |
|
| The «secret» behind the novel insulating render is a so-called aerogel. |
|
|
|
| The gel solvent can also under certain circumstances be removed in such a way that the gel retains its original volume, producing a highporosity material of very low density, an aerogel. |
|
| A low dielectric constant material composed of an aerogel of an inorganic dielectric oxide having organic monomers grafted to the aerogel inorganic material. |
|
| The R-value per inch of the Aspen aerogel blanket is four to six times greater than conventional types of insulation. |
|
| Called multiwalled carbon nanotube aerogel, the substance can be used in sensors to detect pollutants and toxic substances, chemical reactors, and electronics components. |
