A resin sheet includes an epoxy resin including an epoxy resin oligomer and an epoxy resin monomer; a curing agent; and an inorganic filler, wherein a content of the inorganic filler is more than 30% by volume but less than 80% by volume.

A method of building viscosity in a sheet molding composition is provided that includes a thickening agent of at least one of magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide, calcium oxide, calcium hydroxides, zinc oxide, borates, aluminum ion chelates, aluminum trihydrate, polyphosphate, epoxides being mixed into a phenolic resin liquid or solution that includes novolac resin. An initial viscosity results for the mixture. The viscosity builds from the initial viscosity to 36 hours, from 36 to 142 hours, and then from 142 hours to 176 hours to define a slope ratio of viscosities in these time ranges of 1.5-8:1:-0.4-2 and a having terminal viscosity as measured at 176 hours. Alternatively, the initial viscosity is between 500 and 50,000 centiPoise (cP) and at 24 hours thereafter builds to between 1 million to 50 million cP, and the terminal viscosity thereafter of between 10 million and 200 million cP.

Polymeric aerogels, articles made from the polymeric aerogels and methods of making the polymeric aerogels are provided. The aerogels are made e.g. from crosslinkable monomers such as isocyanate monomers or phenolic monomers and a filler comprising crosslinkable hydroxyl groups. The filler may be natural (e.g. wood flour) or synthetic. The aerogels and products made therefrom exhibit low thermal conductivity and are mechanically strong. Due to their physical properties, these materials are used as e.g. building envelope components, such as walls, roofs and frames, to improve the thermal performance thereof, and may be used in a variety of other applications such as sound and insulation barriers in mechanical equipment, cryogenic containers, etc.
