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.
In the aluminum industry, maintaining consistent temperature distribution in melting furnaces is essential for producing uniform liquid metal and ensuring final product quality. An effective refractory insulation system is key to achieving the needed temperature control in aluminum melting furnaces.
The MIP-950 and MIP-800 microporous boards are ideal for this purpose, as they reduce heat loss, enhance quality, and lower operational costs. The MIP-800 model, covered with aluminum foil to prevent moisture absorption, can be adhered to furnace linings with high-temperature adhesives. Compared to traditional materials like glass wool, mineral wool, and ceramic fibers, nano microporous insulation panels provide significant space savings and energy efficiency.

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. |
