regular (silica) aerogel is not lighter than air but SEAgel is a form of aerogel that is lighter than air
The most common use for Aerogel is for thermal insulation. Silica Aerogel has been used to help insulate the Mars Rover and protected all the wiring from the extreme temperatures it faces in outer space.
About 21% of air is oxygen.
Na2 SiO3 + H2O >>>>> Si(OH)4 + Na2SO4
Our air is about 79% Nitrogen.

Solid blue smoke is one... I'm about 90 percent sure
After the published tables the silica aerogel is a very good thermal insulator.
NO
It could be hollow, or could consist of a material like aerogel, which is mostly air
the worst conductors of heat are wood, plastic, rubber, and cloth.
Very tiny bubbles of air in a very thin walled ceramic matrix. In other words ceramic foam.
There is a type of material called Aerogel. The most common form is made of Silicon. The Silicon Aerogel is the best known insulator in the world, as well as being the least dense. Aerogel is made by removing all of the liquids from silica gel and replacing it with air.
Graphene aerogel - 0,16 mg/cm3 (7,5 less than air) Carbyne - 3430 mg/cm3
