  • Aerogel composite with fibrous batting
    Patent number: 7078359
    Abstract: Aerogel composite materials having a lofty fibrous batting reinforcement preferably in combination with one or both of individual short randomly oriented microfibers and conductive layers exhibit improved performance in one or all of flexibility, drape, durability, resistance to sintering, x-y thermal conductivity, x-y electrical conductivity, RFI-EMI attenuation, and/or burn-through resistance.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 21, 2001
    Date of Patent: July 18, 2006
    Assignee: Aspen Aerogels, Inc.

  • Aerogel powder therapeutic agents
    Patent number: 6994842
    Abstract: Drugs in the form of very fine highly porous aerogel particles are delivered to a patient via inhalation. The aerogel particles are either an aerogelized form of a pharmaceutical or deposited upon aerogel particles produced from a non-inorganic oxide carrier matrix material, e.g. a sugar or carbohydrate. The aerogel particles are readily dissolvable by the pulmonary surfactant present in the lungs of a mammal.
