About this document
Technical Seminar on Aerogel by Sudip Neupane is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses the history of aerogel and its inventor Steven Kistler. It describes how Kistler created the first aerogel in 1931 by extracting the liquid component from a gel using a technique called supercritical drying, allowing the solid matrix to remain intact without shrinking. Aerogel was produced from silica gels initially and has since been made from various compounds.
