Abstract
An alumina film with highly photoreflective and heat-insulating properties can be simply synthesized using a sol of fibrous boehmite with an additive. The entangled fibers bring about mesopores among them and form stacked 2D nonwoven-like nanosheets. The porosity and the layered structure of alumina accompanying the heat resistivity provide the upper properties that are usually difficult to realize simultaneously.
