Abstract

The invention relates to a method for improving the strength of a silica aerogel composite material, particularly to an ageing composition for ageing silicon wet gel, an ageing method for silicon wet gel and a method for preparing a fibre composite silicon aerogel material by the ageing method. The ageing composition contains silica-alkoxides and a catalyst, especially an alkalescent catalyst. The ageing method may be performed in conditions such as repeated heating. The fibre composite silicon aerogel material prepared by the method disclosed by the invention has the advantages of being good in thermal stability and high in strength of aerogel composite material. Moreover, the method is simple in process, high in safety, as well as low in equipment demand and investment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of material preparation, in particular to an airgel material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Airgel material is the solid material with the best heat insulation performance found so far. It is a network porous material formed by the aggregation of nanoparticles. Its pores are on the order of nanometers and are smaller than the free path of air molecules, which can minimize Gas convective heat transfer; and its nanostructure characteristics lead to low heat conduction, so airgel material has the characteristics of low thermal conductivity and low density, and is a lightweight and efficient heat insulation material. Airgel materials are widely used in the field of aerospace as thermal insulation materials. Both the Russian "Mir" space station and the American "Spirit" Mars rover use it for thermal insulation. In China, the use of new nano-airgel thermal insulation composite mat...
