In the field of insulation for hot steam pipelines, traditional insulation materials often encounter problems such as frequent maintenance and short lifespan. Moreover, due to insufficient structural strength, the insulation layer is prone to uneven thickness, resulting in severe heat loss. The waterproof performance of traditional inorganic materials is insufficient, which can cause pipeline corrosion and affect its ability to withstand the designed pressure. These problems prevent the fluid from reaching the expected temperature and pressure at the end of the pipeline.
The advantages of nano aerogel insulation batts
Nano aerogel insulation board, with its low thermal conductivity, stands out as a top choice among insulation materials. This material is composed of silica aerogel and special fibers and possesses characteristics such as flexibility, ease of cutting, fire resistance, and overall water repellency. It is widely used in industrial pipelines, furnace bodies, power plants, buried pipelines, detachable insulation sleeves, heavy oil extraction, transportation, and household appliances.
The limitations of traditional insulation materials
The performance rapidly deteriorates, resulting in heat loss and potential safety hazards.
2. Insufficient structural strength and uneven thickness of the insulation layer lead to increased heat loss.
3. Poor waterproofing performance, accelerating pipeline corrosion and increasing maintenance costs.
The application benefits of nano aerogel insulation batts
Preventing scalding and freezing: Within the medium temperature range of 100 to 500 degrees Celsius, the aerogel insulation blanket can effectively prevent scalding and the freezing of liquid inside the pipeline.
2. Enhance fire resistance and insulation: The fire-resistant properties of the aerogel insulation blanket contribute to improving the fire resistance and insulation level of the equipment.
3. Prevent condensation: Effectively prevent the condensation of gaseous media during the transportation process.
Compared with traditional insulation materials, the nano aerogel insulation blanket can significantly reduce the thickness of the insulation layer, decrease heat loss, and achieve excellent energy-saving effects. It has excellent structural strength and high compressive strength, stable performance, and a long service life. In addition, the installation of the nano aerogel insulation blanket is simple. It can be cut and installed according to different shapes and space restrictions, reducing installation time and labor costs. Using aerogel insulation blankets can also reduce the amount of external protective layers, lower transportation and storage costs. The combined use of aerogel insulation blankets with traditional materials provides users with a more economical insulation solution.
