Once again: "The Devil is in the details."  :-)

Can someone contrast an Aero-Gel with conventional closed cell
structural foam and highlight the major differences?

I'm still trying to understand which parts of this configuration are
insulating and which are conductive, and how the difference is determined
during manufacturing.  Can anyone help with this?
