Batch #5

Category: New materials, Aerogel fibers

SA-Dynamics produces recyclable high-performance insulation textiles made from bio-based aerogel fibers. These are intended to replace the currently used insulation materials made from fossil raw materials such as polyurethane or polystyrene. The aerogel textiles consist of over 90 percent air and can be processed on conventional textile machines. They offer outstanding thermal insulation, are extremely lightweight and completely biodegradable. The primary target markets are the textile industry (clothing, personal protective equipment) and the construction industry (thermal insulation). In the long term, the aim is to establish a platform technology that will open up further fields of application in the areas of mobility, aerospace, hygiene/medical technology and high-temperature technology.
