Silica aerogel of ·1 g/cm3 starts at $8/g or 80¢/cm3. If you'd like densities toward the record of 1 mg/cm3, multiply by--I don't know--500? Carbon aerogels are somewhat cheaper, resorcinol formaldehyde cheaper still. You could make your own and maybe do better.
It seems a 3mg/cm3 aerogel costs $2100/g or $6·2/cm3.

Gases heavier than air?
The majority of air is comprised of nitrogen. N2 has an atomic mass of 28, then any gas with a molar mass greater than 28 will sink. Elemental gasses that fit this criteria is Chlorine, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon.
How expensive is aerogel compared to other insulation materials?
Aerogel is more expensive than traditional insulation materials like fiberglass or foam, but it offers superior insulation properties due to its low density and high thermal resistance.

Common incorrect spellings include "Aerogel', "AeroGel", "aero-gel", "aero gel", and alternative phonetic spellings such as "airojell" and "aerojell".
Is aerogel a good insulator?
Yes, aerogel is a good insulator due to its low density and high porosity, which help to minimize heat transfer.
What are some uses for aerogel?
The most common use for Aerogel is for thermal insulation. Silica Aerogel has been used to help insulate the Mars Rover and protected all the wiring from the extreme temperatures it faces in outer space.

What percent of air is aerogel?
Aerogel is not naturally a part of the atmosphere. Air is mostly composed of nitrogen (about 78%) and oxygen (about 21%), with trace amounts of other gases like carbon dioxide and argon. Aerogel is a lightweight solid material that is often used for insulation due to its high porosity.
