Title:
INORGANIC/ORGANIC COMPOSITE, AEROGEL PRODUCTION INTERMEDIATE, AND PRODUCTION METHOD FOR AEROGEL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/106386
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a production method for an aerogel that makes it possible to efficiently dry a wet gel at low cost without the need for an expensive apparatus and to suppress shrinkage and associated cracking during the drying of the wet gel. This production method for an aerogel includes a step (S1) for preparing a starting material liquid that includes a metal compound and at least one type of solvent selected from the group that consists of water and water-soluble solvents, a step (S2) for performing a condensation reaction on the metal compound in the starting material liquid to generate a wet gel in which the solvent is present in the pores of an aerogel, a step (S3) for substituting a polymerizable liquid material for the solvent in the pores of the wet gel, a step (S4) for polymerizing the polymerizable liquid material in the pores of the wet gel to generate an inorganic/organic composite in which a polymer is present in the pores of an aerogel, and a step (S5) for decomposing and thereby removing the polymer in the pores of the inorganic/organic composite.
