Microporous Board’s Typical Application
Microporous insulation products leverage their unique nanoporous structure and the synergistic effects of various additives to remarkably inhibit heat transfer through conduction, convection, and radiation across a wide range of temperatures. This superior performance positions them ahead of traditional insulation materials such as mineral wool, perlite, insulating bricks, calcium silicate, and ceramic fibers, as well as aerogel felts. Notably, in most temperature ranges, the thermal conductivity of microporous insulation products is lower than that of static air.
Key features and benefits of microporous insulation materials include:
These combined properties make microporous materials exceptionally efficient for thermal insulation, offering unparalleled performance across various industrial and high-temperature applications.
Depending on factors like product type, operating temperature, handling requirements, and environmental conditions, microporous insulation products are available with various standard covering materials. These include:
– Aluminum Foil Covering
– Aluminum Foil Cloth Covering
– POF (Polyolefin) Film Covering
– Non-woven Fabric Covering
– Fiberglass Cloth Covering
Each covering material is chosen to suit specific application needs, ensuring optimal performance and durability in diverse industrial and operational settings.

Remarks | • Customization of microporous boards & panels are available for dimensions up to 2800*780 mm and thicknesses from 1mm to 60 mm. • Density and technical specifications vary based on size and thickness. • Exposure to water and other liquids can permanently damage the microporous structure of the material, leading to a significant loss in its insulation capabilities. This vulnerability is a critical technical limitation to be considered in its application and handling. |
