AEROGEL MOLDED BODY, AEROGEL-CONTAINING PARTICLES, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING AEROGEL MOLDED BODY

摘要

An aerogel molded body B includes a plurality of aerogel particles 1 and adhesive 2 bonding the plurality of aerogel particles. The adhesive 2 includes layers of layer-forming adhesive 2a covering the plurality of aerogel particles 1, and particles of particle-forming adhesive 2b adhering to the plurality of aerogel particles 1. The layer-forming adhesive 2a is preferably water-soluble adhesive 2. The particle-forming adhesive 2b is preferably powdery adhesive 2. It is possible to obtain thermal insulators with increased strength and excellent thermal insulating properties.
