Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, because of the inherent defects of airgel materials, such as low strength and high brittleness, in engineering applications, due to the nanoporous structure of airgel materials being easily damaged by water and organic solvents, airgel materials will be lost. Therefore, it is necessary to modify the surface of the airgel material to increase the interface bonding strength between the airgel material and other materials without destroying the nanoporous structure of the airgel material.
[0004] Usually, the preparation method of airgel felt is to impregnate the fiber felt with silica sol, add alkali to gel, age, and make airgel felt through normal pressure drying or supercritical drying process, but the surface of the airgel felt is easy to drop powder. , when combined with other materials, the surface bonding strength is low, and engineering applications are limited
