How Do Nanomaterials Improve Insulation?

Nanomaterials exhibit exceptional properties due to their high surface area to volume ratio and unique physical characteristics. For instance, aerogels, which are highly porous and lightweight, have extremely low thermal conductivity, making them excellent insulators. Nanofibers can enhance the mechanical properties of insulation materials, while PCMs can store and release thermal energy, stabilizing indoor temperatures.
