<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an aerogel composite material which is light and excellent in flexibility, durability, etc. <P>SOLUTION: The composite comprises reinforcing fibers and an aerogel matrix. The reinforcing fibers are in the form of a lofty fibrous structure (i.e. batting 12), preferably based upon fibers combined with individual randomly oriented short microfibers. The aerogel composite material exhibits improved performance in one or all of flexibility, drape, durability, resistance to sintering, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, RFI-EMI attenuation, and/or burn-through resistance. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
