By providing at the same time thermal insulation and transparency
the silica aerogel is a very attractive material for the purpose
of improving the thermal performance of windows. Nevertheless a
lot of problems have to be solved on the way from concept to the
developed product. The B1 Aerogels project in IEA SHCP Task 18
deals with some of these problems.This report summarizes the work
that has been carried out on the subject of characterizing the
optical and thermal performance of prototypical evacuated aerogel
glazings produced in Denmark by means of a new edge seal technique
with very small cold bridge effect.The measurements were carried
out in 1996.
