• FIG. 17B depicts a kit for treatment of a surface with silica silylate including a container with a lid for the dispensing of silica silylate particles, wherein the sides of the container are configured to be squeezed inward.
• two objects can be both in direct contact with each other and in indirect solid contact with each other, for example, when there is an intervening solid material or materials at one portion of the interface between the objects and direct contact between the objects at another portion of the interface between the objects.
• the solid surface is in direct contact with the particulate aerogel material. In some embodiments, the solid surface is touching the particulate aerogel material with no solid material (e.g., a solid layer) in between the solid surface and the particulate aerogel. For example, in FIG. 10C, the top surface of solid 14 is in direct contact with particulate aerogel material 4.
• the particulate aerogel material is non-marking.
• the particulate aerogel material is considered to be non-marking if the particulate aerogel material does not leave behind a visibly observable permanent deposit of material after contacting a solid surface.
• nanoparticles can be dispersed in a solution to make a sol and in a second step or concurrently with the first step, the particles form a gel.
• the pore fluid of that gel is then extracted in such a way as to prevent substantial densification leaving behind a highly porous solid (an aerogel).
• Inorganic oxide aerogels are, generally, natively hydrophilic and express hydroxylated surface functionality that absorbs moisture.
• inorganic oxide aerogel materials can be made hydrophobic by reacting either the gel in its gel phase, or the dry aerogel, with a reactive hydrophobe.
