Abstract: This study investigated new sol-gel methods in the fabrication of Al₂O₃ - SiO₂ composite aerogels. Compared to conventional methods, the Al₂O₃ - SiO₂ composite aerogels were prepared and mixed together. Thermal conductivity of the composite aerogels was measured by an instrument, using a transient plane heat source method.
