Using of aerogel to improve thermal insulating properties of windows [PDF]
For the best possible thermal-technical properties of building structures it is necessary to use materials with very low thermal conductivity. Due to the increasing thermal-technical requirements for building structures, the insulating materials are ...

This review systematically summarizes recent advances in porosity engineering of MXenes, with a focused discussion on their structure‐governed energy storage properties. A critical analysis of structure–property relationships is presented across alkali‐ion batteries, multivalent‐ion batteries, and supercapacitors.

Transparent silica aerogels for window insulation
Abstract Supercritically drying a colloidal gel of silica produces a porous material called an aerogel. These aerogels not only are excellent thermal insulators, but also can be highly transparent. We investigate the microstructure and optical properties of transparent silica aerogels and calculate the energy transfer through hypothetical aerogel ...

Superfluid Phase Stability of $^3$He in Axially Anisotropic Aerogel [PDF]
Measurements of superfluid $^3$He in 98% aerogel demonstrate the existence of a metastable \emph{A}-like phase and a stable \emph{B}-like phase.

Thermal Gelation for Synthesis of Surface-Modified Silica Aerogel Powders
A spherical silica aerogel powder with hydrophobic surfaces displaying a water contact angle of 147° was synthesized from a water glass-in-hexane emulsion through ambient pressure drying. Water glass droplets containing acetic acid and ethyl alcohol were

Morphology‐Controlled Silica Nanoparticle Coatings for Transparent Radiative Cooling
Transparent radiative cooling coatings are achieved by immobilizing solid and hollow silica spheres on glass. Particle morphology within sub‐monolayer coatings is shown to govern the trade‐off between visible and atmospheric window reflectance. Hollow‐sphere structures enable reduced thermal emission losses while preserving transparency, highlighting ...

Effects of aerogel-like disorder on the critical behavior of O(m)-vector models. Recent simulations and experimental evidences [PDF]
We review some results on the effect of a specific type of quenched disorder on well known O(m)-vector models in three dimension. Evidences of changes of criticality in both systems, when confined in aerogel pores, are briefly referenced. The 3DXY model (
