With the rapid development of the new energy industry, the demand for high-efficiency thermal insulation materials is constantly increasing. Aerogel, as a lightweight, low-thermal-conductivity novel thermal insulation material, is finding increasingly widespread applications in new energy battery packs, energy storage systems, and solar thermal systems. Its nanoporous structure results in extremely low thermal conductivity, enabling it to achieve excellent thermal insulation performance even in thin-layer structures.

In the safety protection of new energy batteries, aerogel materials are used as thermal insulation layers between battery cells, helping to delay heat diffusion and mitigate the risk of thermal runaway. Simultaneously, aerogel possesses a certain degree of flexibility and high-temperature resistance, making it compatible with battery modules of different structures and improving overall safety. In energy storage and solar thermal systems, aerogel also provides long-term thermal management support for the system due to its weather resistance and stability.

As new energy equipment upgrades towards higher density and lighter weight, aerogel materials will play an even greater role in the field of safety and thermal insulation, and its application scope will further expand.
