72 ; i efrigeration Industrial processes il & gas (Gi) K-FLex Closed Cell Products Thermal insulating closed cell products have many advantages over the traditional ‘pen cell and products mace of wool or fibreglass: ~ They have a better thermal conductivity, because the ar inside the closed cells has ‘a lower mobilty than that produced in open cells therefore the convective compo- rent of heat exchange is considerably lower. Vapour dtfusion into the insulation is much lower, thus the thermal conductivity wil be guaranteed for longer, even without using protective coatings, ~The mechanical properties are better. = They promote a natural inhibition of bacterial growth, because bacteria cannot spread within the structure Resistant to water vapour diffusion (u factor) Our materials are resistant to water vapour diffusion. The higher the resistance to the penetration of water vapour, (denoted by Mu (jj), the greater theconsistency of performance over a period of time, This benefits significant when insulating Ccold items, where insulation thicknesses are chosen so as to achieve a surface temperature above the ambient dewpoint. Ambiont humicity will ry to breach the insulation in order to achieve equilibrium conditions. Because the thermal conduc~ tivity of water is 0,58 W / (mK), and therefore about 16 times higher than our insu- lation, any absorption of water vapour could reciuce the insulation efficiency, The formation of condensation on the surface of tubing and ducting is the main cause of conosion beneath insulation which quickly leads to damage of pipes and ducts. Many insulation materials are porous or fibrous. In these types of materials the presence of moisture and organic matter alow the growth of bacteria, mould and fungi, Our products are resistant to this and thus contribute to the quality of the air that we breathe. We do our best to ensure that our products do not emit VOCs {volatile organic compounds) to further protect ar quality by changing the ingredients and production process and ensuring that the products are from certified suppliers. In the USA our products are certfied GREENGUARD by the AQS (Air Quality Science) Laboratories. This prestigious qualifcation in the "GREENGUARD for Children & Schools" programme ensures that the product does not emit toxic substances. In Europe there is a similar certification ‘rom the German insttute EPA which has approved our product as completely harmless with regard to the emission of ait- borne substances, Elastomenc insulation isnot made of fibrous material, and does not release harmful particles into the air. Thistheretore, is regarded as an ideal product for use in publi places such as schools and hospitals It is also used in clean rooms: forthe production of microcnips where the minimum of dust and the absence of pollutants are a necessity for efficent production processes.
