Problems solved by technology

The problem with this method is that the sol-gel chemical reaction starts immediately upon mixing the precursor sol and the gelling catalyst and the viscosity of the mixed solution increases, leading to the formation of particles before the solution is sufficiently impregnated into the fibrous phase
Therefore, it is difficult to control the rate of gelation and the gelled airgel is damaged or lost during the process, reducing the thermal insulation performance of the final product
[0007] In addition, when the precursor sol and the gelling catalyst are introduced onto the moving member as in the roll-to-roll process, there is a problem that the precursor sol and the gelling catalyst are not sufficiently impregnated into the fiber mat placed on the moving member, so that Uneven impregnation occurs on the surface of the felt, resulting in reduced insulation properties
If the amount of precursor sol and gelling catalyst introduced is increased to prevent this problem, the amount added exceeds the amount that can be impregnated onto the fibrous phase such that the amount of precursor sol and gelling catalyst in excess of the impregnated amount overflows from the moving element, cause losses in the process

Embodiment 1

[0099]Precursor solutions prepared by mixing prehydrolyzed TEOS (HTEOS) as a gel precursor, ethanol, distilled water, and opacifier at a weight ratio of 1:0.35:0.77:0.015, and ethanol and ammonia water at 89 :1 weight ratio mixed prepared catalyst solution. The prepared precursor solution and the prepared catalyst solution were mixed (volume ratio 1:1) to prepare a catalytic sol. At this time, the viscosity of the catalytic sol was 5 mPa·s. The catalytic sol was introduced into the impregnation tank at a rate of 1.0 L / min. The sol was added to the impregnation tank in an amount of 33.3 L, and as a base material for the mat, fibers (glass fiber mat, 10 mm) were passed through the impregnation tank into which the catalytic sol was introduced to infiltrate the catalytic sol into the fibers, The fibers were simultaneously passed so that the fibers exiting the dip tank at a rate of 1.0 L / min, and the rate of introduction of the fibers into the dip tank was controlled such that th...

[0103] Precursor solutions prepared by mixing prehydrolyzed TEOS (HTEOS), ethanol, and distilled water as a gel precursor in a weight ratio of 1:0.35:1.21 were prepared, and by mixing ethanol and ammonia water in a weight ratio of 98:1 Mix the prepared catalyst solutions. The prepared precursor solution and the prepared catalyst solution were mixed (volume ratio 1:1) to prepare a catalytic sol. At this time, the viscosity of the catalytic sol was 1.8 mPa·s. An airgel felt was manufactured in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the above-prepared sol having a viscosity of 1.8 mPa·s was used as the catalytic sol and the impregnation conditions were adjusted as shown in Table 1 and Table 2 below.

Abstract

The present invention relates to an aerogel felt and a method for manufacturing the same, in which a catalytic sol is sufficiently and uniformly impregnated into the felt in an impregnation tank, and the catalytic sol is allowed to stay in the impregnation tank for a specific time to control fluidity while achieving a viscosity at which the catalytic sol can be easily introduced into the felt, thereby forming a uniform aerogel in the felt. As a result, the uniformity of the pore structure and the thermal insulation performance of the aerogel felt thus manufactured are improved, the loss of raw materials is reduced through the impregnation process, the occurrence of process problems is reduced, and the generation of dust is reduced.
