Why choose mineral wool insulation?

Mineral wool board has excellent heat insulation performance. Compared with expanded polystyrene, it also has good fire prevention function and is very suitable for the insulation of construction and industrial equipment, pipelines, containers and various kilns. Building insulation, that is to prevent heat loss in winter and heat increase in summer, is the largest application field of mineral wool.

Mineral wool board is a new type of heat preservation, flame insulation and sound absorption material recognized in the world. But why does mineral wool board have the functions of thermal insulation, fire insulation and sound-absorbing materials? The reason is that the content of organic compounds cannot be as high as that of thermal insulation, flame insulation and sound-absorbing materials. So what are organic compounds? Why does he have such a role?

Organic compounds, also known as organics, are mainly composed of oxygen, hydrogen and carbon. Organic compounds usually burn, with a few exceptions. At the same time, their thermal stability is poor, and the electrolyte is easy to decompose when heated. The melting point of organic matter is low, generally not more than 200 ℃. It is not difficult to see from here that the content of organic matter is very important to the function of mineral wool board. What is the standard organic content in mineral wool board? Through the test of professional instruments and equipment, the standard organic matter content of mineral wool board is 2.9%, that is, 100kg mineral wool board contains 2.9kg organic matter.

Mineral wool board is made of hydrophobic material, which will not increase the thermal conductivity due to moisture absorption, and the wall will not seep water. Fire resistant, flame retardant and high temperature resistant. It has excellent heat insulation performance. Mineral wool pipe shell is mainly used for thermal insulation of small-diameter pipes. The maximum service temperature of the main pipe shall not exceed 600 ℃, and the maximum service temperature of the mineral wool composite board wet pipe shall not exceed 400 ℃.

The rest of mineral wool boards are inorganic compounds, usually do not contain carbon, have small molecules and are usually nonflammable. Due to the characteristics of inorganic substances, mineral wool board has heat insulation, flame insulation and sound-absorbing materials.
