Glass Wool Pipe
Volume weight: | 30- 100kg/m3 |
Inner diameter of piping: | φ22- 1220mm |
Width: | 30 - 100mm |
The centrifugal glass wool pipe is specially used as the heat insulation of in all sorts of pipes (such as refrigeration, hot water and steam) system, working well under the environment with a temperature less than 454ºC, exposing or covered.
With the effect of waterproof, ant putrefaction, fungus proof, and insect free, the pipe can prevent condensation and refrigeration of pipes, used in the civil buildings, pipe line of heat power, air conditioner, refrigeration equipments and heat insulation, with an energy saving effect improved 15-30%.
Glass wool is a type of thermal insulation material made from glass fibers. Glass wool products are lightweight, flexible, and easy to install, making them ideal for insulation in various industries. Glass wool is widely used in construction, industrial, and automotive applications to reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency. In this article, we will introduce the basic information, characteristics, application scope, production, and application status of glass wool products.
Basic Information
Glass wool is made from molten glass that is drawn into fine fibers and bonded together with a binder. The fibers are fluffy and unorganized, which makes them an excellent insulating material. The materials used to make glass wool include silica sand, soda ash, dolomite, limestone, and recycled glass. Glass wool products have excellent thermal and acoustic insulation properties, as well as good fire resistance and sound absorption capabilities.
Characteristics
Glass wool products have several unique characteristics that make them an ideal insulation material. Firstly, glass wool is lightweight, which makes it easy to handle and install. This feature makes it suitable for use in both new and existing buildings. Secondly, glass wool has excellent thermal insulation properties, which can significantly reduce energy consumption, thereby lowering energy bills. Thirdly, glass wool products are flexible, allowing them to conform to any shape or size, making them ideal for use in confined spaces. Lastly, glass wool products are eco-friendly, as they are made from recycled materials, and can be recycled themselves.
Application
Glass wool products have a wide range of applications in various industries. In the construction industry, glass wool is used for both thermal insulation and acoustic insulation. It can be used in walls, floors, roofs, and ceilings of buildings, as well as in HVAC systems. In the industrial sector, glass wool is used to insulate process equipment, storage vessels, and pipelines, as well as in the manufacture of automotive parts. In the automotive industry, glass wool is used to insulate the engine compartment, the exhaust system, and the passenger cabin.
Production and Application Status
China is the world's largest producer of glass wool products, accounting for over 60% of global production. The United States, Europe, and Japan are also significant producers and consumers of glass wool products. In recent years, the demand for glass wool products has increased globally due to factors such as the growing trend towards energy conservation and the development of more stringent building codes.
In China, the production of glass wool products began in 1958, and the industry has since evolved to become one of the largest in the world. There are currently over 200 glass wool manufacturers in China, producing various types of glass wool products, including blankets, boards, and pipes. The quality of Chinese glass wool products has also improved significantly, and many manufacturers have obtained ISO9001 certification.
Conclusion
Glass wool products are an essential component of modern construction, industrial, and automotive applications. They offer excellent thermal and acoustic insulation properties, are lightweight and flexible, and are eco-friendly. The production and consumption of glass wool products are increasing globally, with China being the largest producer and consumer. As the demand for energy-efficient products grows, glass wool products will continue to play an essential role in reducing energy consumption and enhancing sustainability.
