Limiting windows offset thermal bridge losses using a new insulating coating

Experimental investigations of aerogel-incorporated ultra-high performance concrete

“…Silica fume is an essential ingredient of UHPC which increases packing due to their nano size nature, but also further enhance the bond between the cement paste and aggregate particles through their hydration reaction with cements [88]. Further information concerning miscellaneous aerogel investigations, also including aerogel windows, may be found in the available literature [89][90][91][92][93][94][95][96][97][98][99][100][101][102].…”

Interfacial strength study between a concrete substrate and an innovative sprayed coating

“…(10) and (11), with N and T the normal and tangential forces, respectively, the cohesion parameter is not dependent on the level of stress applied.…”

“…To meet the thermal refurbishment level required by the current standards in buildings, the addition of an external layer of insulation directly on the structure can be a useful solution in terms of thermal bridges and the thermal inertia of structures [10]. A recently patented insulating coating based on silica aerogels (super)-insulating materials has been developed.…”

Building envelope with a new aerogel-based insulating rendering: Experimental and numerical study, cost analysis, and thickness optimization

“…1) [21][22][23][24][25]. The invention is a light mortar that can be applied to the external surface of a building to produce a thermally insulating rendering.…”
