Phenolic foam is considered as one of the best material for thermal insulation. Properties like fireproof, low thermal conductivity, high heat insulation make it a great choice for [http://www.insulation4less.co.uk/ floor insulation]. It is environmentally friendly and preferred for lagging and insulation hotels, health care centers and others. Its superior cold resistance property makes it one of the best options among other insulation materials.

Apart from being fireproof and low thermal conductivity; phenolic foam features a closed cell structure with fire retardant properties. Moreover; it is smoke free, water resistant, lower thermal conductivity and the closed cell structure gives it better stability. It is lightweight, easy to transport and install. Phenolic insulation material is also resistant to acid and base, but under-performs in alkali environment.

Phenolic Properties and Advantages

The thermal conductivity of phenolic closed cell insulation material commonly ranges between 0.018 W/m.K to 0.023 W/m.K. Phenolic foams come in varying densities within the range of 35 kg/m³ to 200 kg/m³. It has over 90% closed cell formation with low smoke levels even under pyrolysis. Insulation board with high density have a good strength and are perfect for floor insulation.

Closed cell phenolic insulation foam can resist almost all sort of inorganic acidic erosion, organic solvents and acids. When exposed under high sunlight for longer period does not reveal any noticeable ageing process in the product. The insulation boards even show great sound absorption capability.

Blowing Agent

The most common blowing agent used in phenolic type of insulation is ‘Pentane’. It is used in order to comply with EC regulation, because it has to be CFC and HCFC free that has no ozone depletion potential and have low impact on global warming. Pentane is a hydrocarbon much like the butane and hexane but is one of the most volatile among other and is in a liquid state at room temperature. In order to prevent the blowing agent to escape and the replaced by air, the boards are covered with gas tight Aluminium foil or sometimes glass tissue. This helps eliminate the risk.

Application of Phenolic Insulation Material

Phenolic insulation material is the best option for building that requires high level of insulation and better temperature control. Phenolic foam boards and panels are become more popular over time. It is recommended for high thermal resistance rates as well as providing high level of safety and fire capability. It is being used on raised floors as a barrier and under roof, wall cavities. It is also used for the purpose of air conditioning ducting. Products like [http://www.insulation4less.co.uk/insulation-materials/floor-insulation/kingspan.html Kingspan insulation] phenolic panels for floors are water proof, fire proof and robust. It can save technicians a lot of time and money. These panels are used in cold storage, insulation workshops and cleaning rooms.
