Levron Aerogel in Industrial Insulation
01
When Levron Aerogel is added to traditional materials such as rock wool, glass wool or ceramic wool, it increases their resistance to moisture and water, improves their thermal insulation, makes them non-combustible and ensures their longevity.

Levron Aerogel in Construction Industry
01
Energy use in the construction sector accounts for a significant portion of total energy consumption worldwide.
Traditional insulation materials are becoming increasingly thicker to meet energy saving regulations.
02
Aerogel can be widely used in the construction industry.
It provides effective results by using it in the form of paint or plaster for thermal insulation of buildings.
It is a very effective additive that provides thermal insulation and water repellency properties to construction materials.

Aerogel paint is a practical way to save energy.
This material, which provides energy efficiency in temperate climates, gives very effective results in exterior applications in hot climates.
When extra insulation is required, high efficiency is achieved by applying from the inside.
Another important use of aerogel is fire protection plaster and paint.
By adjusting the mixture ratio and resins of the paint, fire protection plaster and paint can be produced in accordance with the standards.
Steel structures lose their hardness at temperatures above 600 degrees Celsius, leading to a reduction in their bearing capacity.
In case of fire, the use of fire paints and plasters that will protect the steel until the extinguishing process begins is of great importance.
Aerogel can be used in such fire protection products to protect metal structures.
In addition, fire safety can be increased by applying aerogel felt and aerogel paint on fire doors.
Heavy Service Sector
Levron Aerogel in the Heavy Duty Sector
01
Levron Aerogel can be used in the production of special materials for the defense industry and technical specifications vary according to the project to be implemented.
‘Heavy Duty’ products have much more advanced technical values than Levron’s other commercial products.
Modified Levron products offer hybrid technical features that can serve in harsh conditions.
Levron Heavy Duty products can also be used for RF/IR cloaking effects on military aircraft.
02
Levron Heavy Duty products can be used for heat and sound insulation in marine vehicles.
As it is known, lightness and energy saving are at the forefront in marine vehicles.
In addition, Levron Heavy Duty products can also be used in the painting of marine vehicles to reduce the friction coefficient on the surface.
03
Aerogel by-products are specially preferred for solutions requiring localized protection against high temperatures.
Levron Heavy Duty products can be used in armored land platforms to provide heat and sound insulation.
Levron Heavy Duty products can also be used to reduce the blast effect.
These products also function as acoustic damping agents and barriers against infrared radiation.
Textile
Levron Aerogel in Textile Industry
01
In the clothing industry, Levron Textile products are used in the production of dirt-repellent and heat-resistant garments.
It is widely preferred especially in miflon and fiber products.
During the winter months, it is desirable for clothing to be light while keeping the body warm.
Breathable fabrics are very important for body comfort and health, because hot and sweaty fabrics can cause diseases.
Despite its thin layers, aerogel can provide much higher thermal insulation than traditional insulation materials.
02
Fabrics processed with Levron create innovation in the industry with their thermal insulation and dirt-repellent properties.
Used in footwear and boots, Levron products make snow boots and combat boots lighter and more resistant to the cold.
Aerogel can also be used to impart non-flammability to clothing.
For this reason, it is also preferred in the production of firefighter suits and camouflage clothing.
Lighting
Levron Aerogel in the Natural Lighting Sector
01
The transparency ratio of Levron Aerogel Lighting products can be adjusted according to the needs.
Although transparency is not at the forefront in plaster or paint products, transparency is of primary importance for the lighting industry.
For this reason, Levron uses Aerogel as a consumable material.
Polycarbonate manufacturers can easily obtain Aerogel to improve the thermal insulation properties of their products.
02
The thermal insulation properties of the structure passing the radio are also maximized.
Furthermore, it is possible to achieve the thermal insulation levels of a 25 cm thick wall with a structure only 4 cm thick.
When polycarbonate sheets are used as carriers, it is possible to benefit from the brightness of daylight in factories, buildings and shopping centers with excellent light diffusion.
03
Levron Transparent Aerogel granules are arranged in such a way that they can be easily filled into polycarbonate plates.
This system provides bidirectional energy savings: it both provides effective insulation between indoor and outdoor climate and saves electricity through natural lighting.
Masterbatch
Levron Aerogel in Masterbatch Operations
01
Aerogel can be added as an additive to materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene, rubber and acrylic to give them sought-after qualities such as thermal insulation, fireproofing, fire resistance and water repellency.
02
The sheathing of electrical cables must be heat and fire resistant to prevent overloading of the cables from causing a fire.
Electrical cable sheaths produced using Levron Aerogel can be made safer.
This prevents short circuits even if the cables are exposed to fire or overheating.
03
With Levron Aerogel, it is possible to produce work shoe soles that are resistant to extreme heat.
It is also possible to produce heat-insulated shoe soles for protection from the cold.
