As a thermal engineer, I appreciate this great scientific innovation. Looking forward to sharing this great video with my thermal group at Villanova University, USA!
I remember reading about this in USA Today about 30 years ago. They had a picture of an Aerogel cube in a person's hand, and a candle flame in the background. They said that Aerogel worked so well, that if a room was fully insulated with the substance, the candle flame would be enough to heat the room. I thought that was so intriguing. And yet, I never really heard much about it again. I'm guessing it's both very expensive and very fragile to be practical in mass insulation production.
You can order it right now. Just google for it Its kinda pricy at like 100$ per square meter and 1/4" thick. Its thermal isolation is about 1.5 times as good as PIR and 2-3 times as good as rockwool. So yes its there, but you have 5 inches of PIR for pennies and it insulates MUCH better than 1/4" aerogel. In the end all these insulation materials do the same, insulate by having tiny airpockets. The smaller the air pockets, the better, aerogel is the best, but its not a game changing difference. Thickness always remains key to insulation. Unless you are willing to spend a fortune to save a little on the thickness/weight, you're just better of using something cheap like PIR.
I have never wanted to touch something more in my life. Edit: this comment has been on this video for two years and, to this day, I get notifications of people liking it in my inbox. It wasn’t even supposed to be a joke! I was but a simple fool writing the first thing I thought. It haunts me.
It's great to know about aerogels that have really great and interesting properties. Watching the video about the various uses and roles of the aerogel, I found it very attractive. I'm also looking forward to watching the aerogel develop further. Not only do we hope for more innovation and development in the future, but we also look forward to seeing aerogels being used in new areas.
Thank you so much for not making us go through a hell hole of introductions, presentations and giveaways in a schizofrenic voice. Straight to the point.
I thought aerogel is soft, jelly and spongy, not glassy and easy breakable. Therefore, it's not aerogel, but aeroglass. Ehh... those scientists have no sense for sense.
Right?? Omg I swear we were taught the same things every year and I was always in advanced science because it was to easy. I wanna learn stuff like this! It isn't even new! It was created in the 30's!! I wanna make aerogel!
nah bro, go into materials engineering and maybe in your masters you'll be able to work with this kind of stuff, but you gotta go through a few hard and boring years to start to understand these things practically
@Gaming Legend Absolutely unnecessary, it's just a comment! And, others find it funny so, if you dont have anything nice to say, don't say it! Good day! :)
Veritasium, the channel that makes video thumbnails make you think are clickbait but they aren't and you're not disappointed but happy 😀😀 Great vid mate
Kaleb Pikachu : You can buy your own piece of aerogel or some (cheaper but much less spectacular) aerogel powder online. Just enter 'buy aerogel' into your search engine. Make sure that you get pure aerogel and not the fiber/aerogel composites , made for thermal insulations of buildings etc. Take a look at the hydrophobic aerogel. It really is amazing.
It's basically useless for that purpose. For one thing, if you want to reduce blue light from your phone, _you make your phone screen emit less blue light (which is _*_super_*_ easy);_ it's completely silly to try to block out that light after the fact. Second, aerogel would absolutely suck as a screen protector. On the one hand, it's cloudy; not completely transparent - so it'd distort and blur the screen image. On the other hand, it's horribly brittle. Ironically, since it is sort of "brittle on the nanoscale", it would actually make for a decent shock absorper - _for one single drop, then it's crumbled and ruined._ Real-world screen protectors are instead made to be extremely tough and hard - so that they can take the hits and scratches and _not_ get destroyed in the process.
Despite me watching this video a thousand times٫ and Nile reds video of aerogel coming out a couple months ago٫ I still think how cool it is that both Nile red and Veritasium have made very similar videos.
I also think it's really interesting that he didn't title this "World's Least Dense Solid." He sacrificed some technical accuracy for a more relatable and "clickable" title. Given that he qualifies this in the first sentence of the video though, there's no reason to take issue with it imo.
Another video which is amazing is on the channel NileRed where he makes aerogel in his lab, I was surprised with how complicated it is to actually make this.
Asbestos was a Natural Fire Supressant/resitant material, Aerogel is a Insulator. I mean okay Asbestos is too but ... well ... now i taken apart the point i tried to make.

I recently found out my school had asbestos and it is expected to be demolished in about 37 months. I heard that it doesn't harm people when it's in walls, but when disturbed (like kids scratching the walls) that's an issue. I can feel the effects of that damned carcinogenic material.

simon6071 My guess is you could shape it, but then it's unbendable. They said it's like air jello, so you may be able to cast the material in a shield shape. However, once solid, it's very brittle. It's true that it needs durability.
@@cmarley314 I have a possible solution to use aerogel as fire shielding material that is preferable to be flexible. Turn the aerogel into small particles or beads before using it as filling material for a flexible fire shield.

You can order it right now. Just google for it
Its kinda pricy at like 100$ per square meter and 1/4" thick.
Its thermal isolation is about 1.5 times as good as PIR and 2-3 times as good as rockwool.
So yes its there, but you have 5 inches of PIR for pennies and it insulates MUCH better than 1/4" aerogel.
In the end all these insulation materials do the same, insulate by having tiny airpockets. The smaller the air pockets, the better, aerogel is the best, but its not a game changing difference. Thickness always remains key to insulation. Unless you are willing to spend a fortune to save a little on the thickness/weight, you're just better of using something cheap like PIR.

So what you're telling me is that this is the first ever thing that is truly colored "sky blue"
And you just gave a possible simple reason why the sky is blue, thank yue
@@kuhataparunks thank hue**
Fancy Glasses door’s that way ->
I mean there's the sky
Not really not at all
Lol well at least i dont think thats what its saying
So unique. I hadn't known aerogels existed before seeing this video. Thanks for sharing!
I learnt about it in nineties already but never seen on video. Amazing
@@UnvisitedProfile I tried it but It's white not transparent.
中二病 listenn buddy. You have a gram of the finest concentrated aerogel around. Be grateful

Aerogel: I am basically made from air.
Lays: So am I 😊
🤣
how u gon say its lay but it be almost all chip backs that be like that
I-Ehh?
I’m made of air
@@user-qs1mn9xj1z man i love opening *chip backs* and eating the chips inside
Hello. Thank you very much for this video and also a special thanks for putting Farsi(Persian) subtitles
imagine just having a giant block of this and just picking it up with ease
Hi kiffui
@@sophiegb6077 hello sophieGB
The pyramids are made of aerogel case solved
and colour it
consider that if it will be "giant" block you can not pick it up with ease simply because you can not grab it because of its size
10:38 I was shocked to hear the way it sounds when it dropped, definitely not what I was expecting.
yaah .. it sounded like a metal ring on a steel table
Same here, I thought it would sound a way more plastical and not so clear metallic.
Thanks for the ad
Lmao I tapped your time tag and an ad popped up hahahahah
Thanks for the timestamp now i gotta skip to the part i was at 🙂
Gotta admit, this was actually pretty fascinating
That pic looks familiar...
Crash Schwarzenegger yup and that pfp i saw that on....lemme naht say it 🙃
Hairy Baldy heheeee familiar huh? REC
Crash Schwarzenegger Wtf pro pic?!
Hentai pic?
Found this by accident & am so glad I did!! Fascinating!
Dropping aerogel sounds like metal?
I was fine up until that point.
Like tin almost
hahaha so it's not only me, I cringed a little
I don't believe it!!
Please explain these acoustic properties
@@TheTom90100 A light solid that makes a little tiny sound, but resonates a lot in all those micro-air chambers? That is my hypothesis at least...
Veritasium : *video goes viral*
Veritasium : *makes a video about why his video goes viral*
Veritasium : *goes viral again*
I also think it's really interesting that he didn't title this "World's Least Dense Solid." He sacrificed some technical accuracy for a more relatable and "clickable" title. Given that he qualifies this in the first sentence of the video though, there's no reason to take issue with it imo.

That's whats he did to his boyfriend.
@@sergejnikitin99nt Yep thats what he must did have to did!
he pointed at it
Another video which is amazing is on the channel NileRed where he makes aerogel in his lab, I was surprised with how complicated it is to actually make this.
Aerogel- has 99.8% air.
Lays-HoLd My AiR
The AK yeah if you buy a bag of air you will get some chips too
hahaha nice one

Prefect comment
We've certainly come a long way from asbestos! Thanks for the great video about aerogel!
Asbestos was a Natural Fire Supressant/resitant material, Aerogel is a Insulator. I mean okay Asbestos is too but ... well ... now i taken apart the point i tried to make.
ua-cam.com/video/3hQU_VITkNA/v-deo.html
Lol asbestos is such a funny word despite it being so deadly
Asbestos`s danger is highly overstated.
@@edman79 fibrous airborne crystals that can cause micro abrasions in mucus membrane tissue, become embedded in your cornea, and induce brain cancer 😳
How is that overstated? I recently found out my school had asbestos and it is expected to be demolished in about 37 months. I heard that it doesn't harm people when it's in walls, but when disturbed (like kids scratching the walls) that's an issue. I can feel the effects of that damned carcinogenic material. I'm slipping into lower states of consciousness and my IQ is decreasing exponentially 🤪👾
i did not expect the Aerogel to sound like that when he dropped it
Same😂
It sounds like metal
@@harshvithlani9399 ive held it before and i broke it ;-;
it kinda feels like some easy to break foam but a little bit hard at the same time
very hard to explain o.o
That stuff will be the next insulating material, love all this science 😊

Let’s all take a moment to celebrate a modern day legend: Samuel Kistler, inventor of the Jello Shot. A king amongst men. Salute!

Be careful. Not because it's hot.

This was very informative and well-prepared! Can't wait for the rest of the trilogy!
Is there flexible aerogel. Good for making fire shield for firefighters and houses in fire prone areas.
simon6071
My guess is you could shape it, but then it's unbendable. They said it's like air jello, so you may be able to cast the material in a shield shape. However, once solid, it's very brittle. It's true that it needs durability.
@@cmarley314 I have a possible solution to use aerogel as fire shielding material that is preferable to be flexible. Turn the aerogel into small particles or beads before using it as filling material for a flexible fire shield.
Oh,sorry. I forgot about what fabric to be used to contain the aerogel particles. Any suggestion?
I thought this was a meme video
Me gusta que le entusiasme compartir sus conocimientos. Los maestros de las escuelas públicas deberían incorporar esto en su enseñanza. Cuando estaba en la escuela, dos de mis profesores de ciencias estaban entusiasmados. Amaban lo que hacían. Exudaban eso en su trabajo. La retención del trabajo de curso fue mucho mayor que en otras clases y materias.

I can confirm that you can replace the liquid in jelly with alcohol. Source: My college years.
So, where are alcoholic jellies coming to market?
Aerogel that is hydrofoob must be made with a apolair structures right and solvends
And every 14 year old
