  DUNLOP AEROGEL RACQUET TECHNOLOGY

   

  
  Aerogel's remarkable characteristics of extreme strength and very light weight (it's listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for its properties) make it well suited for modern tennis racquet technology.
  
  Being the lightest solid on earth -- weighing in at only three times the weight of air -- and with strength four thousand times its own weight, Dunlop Aerogel racquets create power and control without adding any weight to the frame.

   

  AEROGEL FACTS

  • Invented by Steven S. Kistler at the college of the Pacific in Stockton, CA.

     

  • Made up of pure silicon dioxide and sand, as is glass, but a thousand times less dense than glass because it is 99.8 per cent air - the lowest density of any solid known to man.

     

  • One piece of Aerogel the size of a human body weighs less than a pound, but can support the weight of a car.

     

  • Nearly transparent -- like a hologram.

     

  • Nicknamed "Frozen Smoke"

     

  • Used by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory to gather comet particles traveling six times the speed of a rifle bullet.

     

  • Called "Technology To Watch" by Fortune Magazine

     

  • Listed as a "Best Invention" by TIME Magazine

     

  • Cited 15 times in the Guinness Book of World Records
