Abstract
Polyimide (PI) aerogel composites were synthesized using 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether (ODA) and 1,3-bis(4-aminophenoxy)neopentane (BAPN) as diamine monomers, and biphenyl-3,3′,4,4′-tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA) as dianhydride monomers. This study examined the impact of varying proportions of SiO2 micron aerogel powder and the addition of BTC on the properties of the composites. The prepared composites showed ultra-high flexibility (180° folded) with the thickness of 3–4 mm, high thermal stability (95 % weight retention at 501 °C) and thermal insulation performance with ultralow thermal conductivity of 0.033 W/(K·m).
