Product Overview

Our 1.5D×38MM aerogel thermal insulation polyester staple fiber represents a new generation of high-efficiency cold-resistant functional fiber, bringing aerospace-grade aerogel thermal insulation technology into the textile field. Through an advanced melt blending process, nano aerogel particles are uniformly dispersed into the polyester fiber matrix, giving the fiber excellent thermal insulation performance unmatched by traditional fibers.

This innovative fiber features ultra-light weight, high warmth retention, slim profile, breathability, and wash resistance, making it the core raw material for upgrading high-end winter clothing, outdoor equipment, and functional home textiles.

Technical Innovation

Unlike traditional thermal insulation fibers that rely on thick fiber layers to trap static air for warmth, aerogel fiber builds a nano-scale thermal barrier from inside the fiber. Aerogel's unique nanoporous structure effectively immobilizes static air, greatly reducing heat conduction and convection, with thermal conductivity as low as ≤0.032 W/(m*K).

At the same thickness, its warmth retention effect is 2-3 times that of ordinary hollow polyester fiber, effectively resisting the invasion of external cold air and locking body heat, providing long-lasting and stable warmth protection for wearers in low-temperature and extreme cold environments.

Enhanced Comfort & Performance

The 1.5D ultra-fine denier design endows the fiber with an extremely soft and delicate hand feel. The finished thermal wadding or fabric has no stiff sensation, fits body curves well, and brings no sense of bondage or heaviness. Compared with traditional thick thermal clothing, aerogel fiber achieves the same warmth retention effect with 50% thinner thickness.

The porous structure and hydrophilic treatment ensure excellent moisture permeability, quickly discharging sweat during exercise, avoiding stuffiness and dampness, and maintaining a dry and comfortable thermal state.

Core Advantages
Aerospace-Grade Insulation Technology

Embedded with high-performance nano aerogel particles uniformly distributed inside the fiber matrix. Leveraging aerogel's unique nanoporous structure that locks static air and blocks heat conduction, this fiber achieves ultra-low thermal conductivity of ≤0.032 W/(m*K), delivering 2-3 times the warmth retention of ordinary hollow polyester fiber.

Ultra-Fine Denier for Superior Comfort

The 1.5D ultra-fine denier design gives the fiber an extremely soft, delicate and fluffy hand feel. When made into wadding or fabric, it fits closely to the body without stiff foreign-body sensation, and causes no skin irritation or discomfort.

Optimized Length for Manufacturing

The 38mm precision cut length is specially optimized for fine denier spinning and lightweight nonwoven production. Universally compatible with high-speed carding machines, needle punching lines, air laid equipment and ring spinning systems.

Ultra-Thin & Lightweight Design

Achieves higher warmth retention with lighter weight and slimmer profile. At the same warmth level, required thickness is reduced by more than 50% compared with ordinary polyester wadding, effectively solving the problem of bulky traditional winter clothing.

Breathable & Wash Resistant

Hydrophilic oiling agent and porous structure design quickly discharge sweat and moisture. Aerogel particles are firmly fixed inside the fiber matrix - after 20 standard washing cycles, warmth retention rate remains above 90% with no caking or deformation.

Application Scenarios
  • Outdoor & Winter Apparel: Down jacket lining, ski suit insulation layer, cold-proof coat wadding, outdoor hiking thermal clothing, professional extreme cold workwear
  • Bedding & Home Textile: Winter quilt filling, thermal mattress pad, warm pillow core, infant sleeping bag, household cold-proof cushion
  • Shoes & Accessories: Winter shoe lining insulation cotton, snow boot filling, warm hat earmuffs, cold-proof gloves, thermal insole material
  • Outdoor Camping Gear: Professional sleeping bag filling, tent thermal lining, camping insulation mat, cold-proof sleeping bag liner
  • Industrial & Special Protection: Low-temperature operation protective clothing, cold chain transportation insulation layer, building thermal insulation material, pipeline insulation wrapping
  • Functional Textiles: Thermal underwear yarn, blended warm fabric, needle punched thermal cotton, automotive interior thermal insulation layer
Frequently Asked Questions
How does aerogel fiber achieve thermal insulation? What is the working principle?
Nano aerogel particles are uniformly blended inside the polyester fiber. Aerogel has a nanoporous structure that locks static air and blocks heat conduction & convection, achieving ultra-low thermal conductivity (≤0.032 W/(m*K)) and 2-3 times higher warmth retention than ordinary polyester fiber at the same thickness.
Will aerogel fall off after washing? Does warmth retention decrease over time?
No. Aerogel particles are firmly fixed inside the fiber matrix during melt spinning, not surface-coated. After 20 standard home laundry cycles, the warmth retention rate still remains ≥90%, with no caking, no powder dropping and stable long-term performance.
What does 1.5D denier feel like? Is it soft enough for close-fitting clothing?
1.5D is ultra-fine denier, with a very soft and delicate hand feel and no stiff or foreign-body sensation. It is skin-friendly and non-irritating, and can be safely used in close-fitting thermal underwear, infant bedding and high-end close-fitting cold-proof clothing.
Is 38mm length suitable for spinning and blended yarn production?
Yes, 38mm is the classic length for fine denier staple spinning. It is fully compatible with ring spinning, rotor spinning and various nonwoven processes, and can be blended with cotton, wool, modal and other fibers to develop functional thermal yarns.
Does this fiber contain harmful substances? Does it meet export standards?
It is made of 100% virgin polyester and food-grade nano aerogel, free of formaldehyde, heavy metals and other harmful substances. It complies with OEKO-TEX Standard 100 and REACH regulations, fully meeting European and American export requirements.
Can I customize aerogel content, denier or other specifications?
Absolutely. We support customized aerogel loading ratio, fiber denier, cut length and additional functional finishing (such as antibacterial, moisture wicking) according to your product performance requirements.
Can I get free samples to test the thermal insulation effect?
Small test samples are provided free of charge for hand feel evaluation, warmth retention comparison, washing test and production line trial production.
