1. A fiber-reinforced aerogel comprising a porous organic polymer matrix and fibers comprised in the porous organic polymer matrix, wherein the aerogel comprises:
a thermal conductivity of 10 mW/m K to 60 mW/m K at a temperature of 20° C.;
at least a bimodal pore size distribution with a first mode of pores having an average pore size of 3 nanometers (nm) to 50 nm and a second mode of pores having an average pore size of greater than 50 nm; and
a thickness of 5 millimeters (mm) or less and is capable of being rolled up into a roll,
wherein the fibers form a woven fiber matrix.
