For space technology and industrial applications high performance thermal insulation systems are required. In our research we investigate an innovative solution with nanoparticles for thermal protection, thermal regulation, thermal stability, materials with variable emissivity/absorptivity and proper thermal control surfaces. The new thermal insulation solution uses the SpeedyNano<sup>TM</sup> nanoformulation technology developed by InnoStudio Inc, which is based on controlled continuous flow nanoprecipitation. Due to the reduced and monodisperse size distribution of nanoparticles, combined with the unique, 3D optimized macromolecular structure, this technology can be utilized for thermal and light trapping applications. In the lecture design principles of the nanoparticles, instrument for production the nanoparticles and the first insulation experiments will be presented.<br/>
