Isoleika's Microporous insulation & Calcium Silicate (Super-Isol) What is the microporous insulation? The microporous insulation is 90% air, but the air is locked between particles of amorphous silica (particles between 5-25nm). Thousands of times smaller than the diameter of human air. What is the calcium silicate? The calcium silicate is a natural compound made from lime and silica, frequently used in industrial and construction (home and buildings) thermal insulation. It is usually prepared by adding binders and then passed through the oven. Maximum working temperature The maximum working temperature of the microporous panels is 1050°C. The upper temperature limit of calcium silicate SU-PER-ISOL is 1000°C and for SUPER-1100E is 1100°C. Non-Combustibility Both products are Euroclass A1 products. Non combustible materials that do not help the spread of flame. Thermal conductivity Thermal conductivity (W/mK) / T (°C) 50°C 200°C 400°C 600°C 800°C Compressibility The microporous insulation normally it is supplied in the lower density on which the material is manipulable. In the applications where the resistance to the compression is important is possible to supply higher densities (between 270-380Kg/m3). The density of calcium silicate SUPER-ISOL is 225kg/m3. Resistance to compression at 10% of the deformation: Isoleika's microporous: >0.32Mpa LESS SPACE LESS ENERGY MORE CAPACITY ■nutation panel eisiation panel Advantages of the microporous insulations The advantage of microporous against calcium silicate is the thermal insulation. Where in high temperature applications temperature requirement is demanding cold face or when we want to improve the energy lost, or where the insulation thickness is limited. • It has the lowest thermal conductivity. • Minimum heat losses • Increases the effective volume • Is slimmer, lighter and more energy efficient than conventional insulations • Up to four times more efficient (to achieve the same result you need only A insulation thickness). • Long life and excellent operational reliability • Is harmless to health and easy to handle. & Yisoleiha insulation panels Isoleika, S.Coop.
