Exploratory studies on aerogel composites for marine applications
The marine applications of aerogel and composites have been mainly restricted to insulation in deep sea risers. This project aims to look into combining aerogel with different materials forming composites to suit deep sea applications, thus combining advantages from both components: ability to withs...

| Summary: | The marine applications of aerogel and composites have been mainly restricted to insulation in deep sea risers. This project aims to look into combining aerogel with different materials forming composites to suit deep sea applications, thus combining advantages from both components: ability to withstand high pressures, salt water attack, and thermal variations, to name a few. |
