Cabot's major products are carbon black, fumed silica, inkjet colorants, capacitor materials, aerogel and cesium formate drilling fluids. Nanogel®, Cabot’s branded aerogel, is a hydrophobic aerogel produced as particles. Nanogel particles can be contained in various ways to facilitate incorporation into a wide range of systems including architectural daylighting. Cabot produces Nanogel in a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility located near Frankfurt, Germany where it began commercial production in 2003.
Incorporating Cabot’s Nanogel aerogel into architectural daylighting applications is the best solution for meeting or exceeding stricter building codes while conserving energy and achieving sustainability goals. When integrated within a building’s fenestration system, the unique properties of Nanogel mean improved thermal and acoustic insulation, increased energy-efficiency and light transmission, and moisture resistance.
