Enthusiasm for research and development of airgel powder continues to rise, with many manufacturing companies in my country

Airgel powder is a subdivided product of airgel, which refers to silica airgel particles with nanopore structure. Supercritical drying method and gelling agent method are the main preparation methods. Airgel powder has the advantages of high pore size, extremely low density, high pores, high specific area, good sound insulation, good heat insulation, and good adsorption. It is widely used in construction engineering, industrial production, medicine, photovoltaics, aerospace, and automobile manufacturing. It has broad application prospects in many fields.

As a new material, airgel has excellent comprehensive properties and is widely used in many fields. Driven by application demand, my country’s aerogel market space continues to expand. my country’s aerogel market size will reach 3.16 billion yuan in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 13.6%. Airgel powder is a segmented product of airgel. As the development of the airgel industry accelerates, the market space of airgel powder continues to expand.
                              
In recent years, my country’s enthusiasm for research and development of airgel powder has continued to rise, and a number of invention patents have been obtained, including “An Enhanced Airgel Powder and its Preparation Method”, “A Preparation Method of Carbon Airgel Powder”, etc. . In 2022, the research team of Associate Professor Li Zhi from the School of Resources and Safety Engineering of Central South University achieved mass production of airgel powder based on low-cost, large-scale silicon airgel powder preparation technology. The production process only takes 10 hours. In the future, with in-depth research and technological advancement, my country’s airgel powder production will further increase.

According to the “2023-2028 China Airgel Powder Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center , airgel powder can be used to produce film materials, thermal insulation materials, functional fillers, etc., and is widely used in the field of construction engineering. With the rapid development of economy and the continuous improvement of technological innovation level, my country’s building materials industry is gradually developing in the direction of green and high performance. Airgel powder has the advantages of strong adsorption, green environmental protection, good heat insulation, and good sound insulation. Sound insulation putty powder and thermal insulation putty powder are its end products. As downstream demand grows, the prosperity of my country’s airgel powder industry will continue to improve.

There are many airgel powder manufacturers in my country, and the market competition is fierce. Xingfa Group, Hongbai New Materials, Huayang New Materials, Zhongning Technology, Zhongke Runzi, etc. are the main players in my country’s airgel powder market. Huayang New Materials has the largest airgel powder production line in my country, and its production capacity ranks among the industry leaders. Zhongning Technology focuses on the R&D, production and sales of airgel and its composite materials. AG-D airgel powder is its independently developed airgel powder product.

Industry analysts said that airgel powder has the advantages of good sound insulation, good heat insulation, and good adsorption. It is widely used in many industries. The field has broad application prospects. In recent years, the number of companies in the airgel powder industry in my country has continued to grow, and the market competition has become increasingly fierce. In the future, with the improvement of independent research and development capabilities of local enterprises, the maturity of my country’s airgel powder technology will continue to improve.
