The research conducted to combine technology and material sciences resulted in the invention of Aerogel. When gas is replaced with a liquid component of the gel, the resultant derivative is known as Aerogel. Although it comes in solid form, it is still lightweight and porous. Further, it being low in thermal conductivity, it is an apt material to construct insulators. The report by Allied Market Research on the Global Aerogel Market provides detailed information with all the market trends and growth prospects. This report would provide a platform for those industries that are planning to foray in the aerogle market.

The report states that the global aerogel market would touch a figure of $1,896.6 million, growing at a CAGR of 36.4% during 2014 - 2020. North America and Europe are expected to contribute about two-third of the market revenue during 2014-2020.
