The BTU-BLOCK product line of microporous insulation is designed for use in high temperature industrial applications. BTU-BLOCK uses an optimized blend of raw materials to produce an insulation material with a uniquely low thermal conductivity. Unlike traditional fiber or ceramic based insulation, microporous insulation is based on ultra-fine particles of fumed silica, metal oxides and reinforcement fibers. These particles and fibers create a sub-micron pore structure that limits the convection of air, the conduction of heat, and the transmission of radiation. BTU-BLOCK insulation is designed to provide ultra-low thermal properties throughout the entire temperature range. Applications: Back-up insulation in high temperature production processes, Chemical Processing, Ceramic, Ferrous, Non-Ferrous, Commercial ovens. Information provided by Morgan Advanced Materials |
