The Thermal Conductivity of Insulating Materials of Varying Temperatures

1. Low-Temperature Insulations
- Insulators are used to prevent freezing or sweating and to insulate ice- water
pipes and other refrigeration equipment.
- Materials are manufactured so as to have a low conductivity and durable
structure under moisture conditions.
Low Temperature Materials:

At temperature about 150°F to 300°F (65°C to 150°C) asbestos paper structures are
extensively used. They have advantages of rather small conductivity and low cost.
Raw Materials:
Cattle Hair, Wool Felt, Cork and their various combinations. Cork is used in many
forms such as sheets, blocks or bulk.
2. Moderate Temperatures
At temperature between 300°F and 600°F (150°C to 320°C) an insulation
composed of 85% magnesia and 15% asbestos must be used.
Asbestos is a silicate mineral having the characteristic properties of fibrous

structure and fire resistance. It has a good resistance to mechanical vibration and
shock vibration.
: The term "85% magnesia" often used to insulating materials is the above-
mentioned 85% magnesia and 15% asbestos.
