OVERVIEW OF TECHNICAL INSULATION APPLICATION 26
TECHNICAL INSULATION PROPERTIES 27
Mineral wool insulation Isover is made from the earths
most abundant materials: rock, sand and minerals of
various types. The production is based on fiberizing
of molten raw materials consisting of minerals and
different amounts of artificial resins. Mineral wool
insulation materials are delivered as wired mats, lamella
mats, slabs, blocks, pipe sections and felts. Depending
upon the form of delivery, mineral wool insulations can
be quilted on wire mesh, faced with foils, glass fleece or
glass filament tissue or be equipped with coatings.
Final Isover products have the following properties:
apparent density from 25 to 150 kg/m
3
(special fire
protection slabs can have density up to 200 kg/m
3
),
very good thermal insulation performance (low
thermal conductivity),
very good sound attenuation (high absorption
coefficient),
fire resistance non-combustible material,
high temperature resistance (possibility of application
up to a maximum surface temperature),
environmental friendly and hygienic,
hydrophobisation Isover insulation materials are
made water repellent,
long life span (material is not aging),
resistant to wood-destroying pests, rodents, and
insect,
easy to handle, easy to cut with a sharp knife.
The Isover product range provides fire safe thermal
and acoustic insulation solutions in many applications,
including HVAC, original equipment, transport and
for tanks and storage vessels. The range of high
quality products has been designed to be effective in
both performance and cost, while providing ease of
installation. Each product is engineered to fulfil specific
performance criteria. Maximum surface temperature
(MST) is dependent on the apparent density (the
higher the density, the higher MST and better thermal
performance at high temperature surfaces). Mineral wool
insulations have a melting point higher than 1000 C.
For outdoor application metal steel jacketing is
required. If a product is with an aluminium facing, then
the surface temperature must not exceed 100 C on the
facing; proper thickness of insulation must be designed
for this purpose. Binders and greasing agents in mineral
wool products dissolve and evaporate in areas with
temperatures higher than 150 C. As the temperature
falls in the direction of the insulations cold side, the
binder remains unchanged in the greater part of the
material. In the outer areas, colder than 150 C, no
dissolution and evaporation take place.
Isover is part of the Saint-Gobain group, leaders in the
design, production and distribution of materials for
the construction, industrial and consumer markets.
With a presence in over 50 countries, the groups global
reach allows us to draw on unrivalled financial and
technological resources to meet the changing needs of
customers and communities in the 21st century. In the
Czech Republic Isover has a modern stone wool plant in
astolovice, Trade Headquarters is in Prague. Thermal,
acoustic and fire protection insulations have been
produced in astolovice for more than 40 years. Our
company offers a complete range of insulation materials
from both stone and glass wool. Thus we can offer you
the optimal product for any industrial application. You
will find the best solution with us.
PROPERTIES OF ISOVER PRODUCTS FROM MINERAL WOOL
2-3
AS QUALITY
Corrosion of stainless steel surfaces under insulation
is an often discussed issue. Highly alloyed austenitic
steel (alloyed by chrome, nickel and molybdenum) are
predisposed to tensile stress corrosion (stress corrosion
cracking), which is caused by chloride ions. Austenitic
is a description of crystalline steel structure, therefore
identified as AS. Chlorides with water (well-known
is classical salt) attack steel surface and cause cracks
in the material. With increasing surface temperature
the danger of stress corrosion cracking is raised. To
minimise this danger, mineral wool insulations in AS
quality are available for this application. Standard AGI
Q 132 determines maximum content of chloride ions of
10 mg in 1 kg of the insulation material. Mineral wool
insulations may be used for insulating objects made
of stainless austenitic steels if the content meets the
requirement. Isover stone wool technical insulations
meet the requirement of AGI Q 132.
THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY
One of the most important parameters of insulations is
their thermal conductivity named lambda value [W/
(m.K)]. Thermal conductivity measures the capacity of a
material to lead or to resist heat transfer. The smaller
the lambda value, the better the thermal insulation.
The thermal performance of mineral wool is achieved
through the entrapment of air within the material. Its
thermal conductivity does not deteriorate over time.
For slabs, mats, felts and loose mineral wool, the
thermal conductivity is determined in the hot box
tester according to EN 12 667. The determination of the
thermal conductivity of sections is in the pipe tester
according to EN ISO 8497. For lamella mats and wired
mats, the thermal conductivity is measured in the hot
box and in the pipe tester. The thermal conductivity of
mineral wool insulations has to be determined up to the
maximum service temperature (hot face) as a function
of the mean temperature (arithmetic mean between
object and surface temperature).
The thermal conductivity varies with temperatures and
with densities. The higher the density, the higher the
thermal performance at high temperature surfaces. In
our product data sheets declared lambda-values
D
are
used; these values are fulfilled within every product.
A designer will be on the safe side when using our
declared lambda-values. That means allowances for
workmanship, spacers and supporting constructions
are made. Possible inaccuracies caused by calculation
equations can be eliminated.
MELTING POINT OF MINERAL WOOL
PRODUCTS
The melting point of mineral wool is determined
according to DIN 4102 part 17. It is a parameter for
the durability of mineral wool insulations in building
components in case of fire. It must not be confused
with the maximum service temperature and has no
relation to the service temperature. Mineral wool
insulations have the melting point higher than 1000 C,
usually in the range from 1200 to 1600 C.

MAXIMUM SERVICE TEMPERATURE
Maximum service temperature according to EN 14 706
(for wired mats, lamella mats and slabs) and EN 14 707
(for pipe sections) ranging from 250 to 700 C. MST for
various products can be found in a Product data sheet
or at the end of the catalogue in the chapter Isover
Products on page 23.
FIRE RESISTANCE
Mineral wool products Isover are completely non-
combustible; they resist to high temperatures and thus
prevent fire spread. The classification levels according
to EN 13 501-1 are A1, possibly A2 for materials with
a facing.
ACOUSTIC PROPERTIES
Isover mineral wool products have a fibre structure
and therefore reach excellent noise attenuation, for
example from HVAC services (pipework, ductwork
and air handling equipment) and other services. An
absorbent layer of mineral wool has the best absorption
capacity in the medium and high frequencies (under
such conditions it can have absorption coefficient up to
98 % ( = 0,95)). The absorption in the low frequencies
is improved by increasing the thickness or by providing
an air gap behind the absorbent layer.
RESISTANT TO BIOLOGICAL PESTS
Mineral wool insulation is resistent to wood-destroying
pests, rodents, and insects. They are rot-proof and do
not sustain growth of mould.
LOW THERMAL EXPANSION
Mineral wool insulations have almost zero thermal
expansion with changing temperatures.
MOISTURE AND WATER REPELLENCE
All Isover products are treated during manufacture with
special additives, which make them water repellent.
Isover products are a hydrophobic, non-hygroscopic
insulation material. If Isover products get wet, they
dry out quickly as a result of the open structure and its
mechanical and insulating properties are unaffected
after drying. For outdoor application metal steel
jacketing is unconditionally required.
BASIC FUNCTIONS OF TECHNICAL INSULATIONS
Insulations are defined as those materials which retard
the flow of heat energy by performing one or more of
the following functions:
Energy conservation: minimizing unwanted heat loss/
gain from building HVAC systems, as well as preserv-
ing natural and financial resources.
Personnel protection: controlling surface tempera-
tures to avoid contact burns (hot or cold) maximum
surface temperature criterion.
Condensation control: minimizing condensation by
keeping the surface temperature above the dew point
of surrounding air.
Prevent internal condensation in pipes.
Process control: minimizing temperature change in
process fluids where close control is needed.
Increase operating efficiency of heating, ventilating,
cooling, plumbing, steam, process and power systems
found in commercial and industrial installations.
Freeze protection: minimizing energy required for
heat tracing systems and/or extending the time to
freeze in the event of system failure. Freeze protec-
tion of vessels and tanks with various accumulated
fluids or fuels.
Noise control: reducing/controlling noise in mechani-
cal systems.
Fire safety: protecting critical building elements and
slowing the spread of fire in buildings.
The application of thermal insulation on pipe, vessels
and ducts is recognized as a necessary requirement in
any construction activity. The thickness and extent of
insulation required has always been subject to arbi-
trary and imprecise decisions with little engineering or
economic input. No material incorporated in a modern
construction project provides the owner with as good
a financial return throughout the life of the facility as
does insulation.
The investment in insulation may protect the equip-
ment and personnel present during the life of the facil-
ity. Proper insulation prevents condensation, chemical
corrosion and excessive heat in fire hazard areas. Added
human comfort provided by proper insulation in hotels,
office buildings, schools or factories adds considerably
to the value of the facility and productivity of its per-
sonnel. Process temperatures in heat traced piping are
more efficiently maintained with proper insulation. The
size of the heat generating equipment can be reduced
when designed with an efficient insulation system. In
some cases, insulation is essential to an industrys very
existence as with the power, the process, and
the cold storage.
However, the most substantial return on an investment
in insulation is in energy savings over a period of time.
These savings are becoming more and more empha-
sized in the industrial insulation field as energy costs
rise, coupled with the fact that industrial plants and
utilities usually account for about half of the total en-
ergy consumption.
Recently, the environmental impact of new, renovated
or relocated industrial and commercial facilities has
taken on new importance. Thermal insulation is one of
the most, if not the most, significant technology used
to conserve energy, thereby reducing pollution. Besides
minimizing heat loss, insulation increases process ef-
ficiency, helps maintain employee safety, comfort and
production.
For their thermal protection of various industrial appli-
cations it is a necessity to design and use such insula-
tion material that meet operating conditions. Isover will
help you find the most suitable insulation product for
given application.

HEAT FLOW TRANSMISSION
Heat transfer is carried out by three heat transmission
modes: conduction, convection and radiation.
Conduction
Heat transfers from warmer surface to colder through
solid material or gas (by fibres in mineral wool
insulations). The more insulant the material, the less
the conduction.
Convection
Transfer of heat caused by air movements (because of
temperature and density gradient). Hot air moves up
and heat dissipates. The quieter the air, the less the
convection. Convection can be natural (when calculating
insulation inside the building) or forced (for calculation
outside where wind blows).
Radiation
Each material absorbs or emits thermal radiations
depending on its temperature and its emissivity. Unlike
conduction or convection, heat can be transferred by
radiation also in a vacuum. When radiation is absorbed
or reflected, there is less thermal transfer. Measure of
radiating capacity of a material is emissivity . Absolute
black body has the highest emissivity ( = 1). Rough
and dark surfaces approaches such value (for example
mineral wool insulation without jacketing = 0.94),
contrary to bright and smooth surfaces that have very
low emissivity (for example polished aluminium foil
= 0.05). For design it is necessary to take into account
that covering of the bright surface with dust will
increase emissivity significantly.
These three transport mechanisms are applied in
two very important quantities surface heat transfer
coefficient and thermal transmittance U.
Thermal insulations impede conduction, convection and
radiative effects:
by creating a thermal barrier against conduction,
by suppressing air movements,
by limiting radiative effects.
Surface heat transfer coefficient
Two heat transmissions (convection and radiation)
influence the heat transfer coefficient [W/(m
2
K)]. The
higher the heat transfer coefficient, the higher the heat
flow rate from a warm surface.
Thermal transmittance
Thermal transmittance (also called Overall heat transfer
coefficient) U (for flat surfaces [W/(m
2
K)], for pipes [W/
(mK)]) is inverted value of thermal resistance and it
takes into account the influence of all heat transmission
modes (conduction, convection and radiation).

INSULATION SYSTEM DESIGN
GENERAL
An insulation system is the combination of insulations,
finishes and application methods which are used to
achieve specific design objectives. Among these are:
Energy savings.
Reduced operating costs.
Condensation control.
Chemical compatibility with the metals being
insulated, the atmosphere to which the system
will be exposed and the various components of the
insulation system itself.
Protection of mechanical and insulation systems
from mechanical abuse and atmospheric damage.
Personnel protection.
Fire protection.
Sound control.
Future requirements for access to piping, fittings, etc.
Accommodation to limited clearances or work space.
While there are several choices of insulation materials,
which meet basic thermal and cost-effective
requirements of an installation, choices become more
limited with each additional design objective that
comes into play.
INSULATION THICKNESS CALCULATION
When calculating the thickness of the insulation it is
essential to put in appropriate boundary conditions. lt
should be noted that the steady-state calculations are
dependent on boundary conditions. Often a solution
at one set of boundary conditions is not sufficient to
characterize a thermal system which will operate in a
changing thermal environment (process equipment
operating year-round, outdoors, for example). In such
cases, local weather data, based on yearly averages or
yearly extremes of the weather variables, should be
used for the calculations.
The heat flow through a surface at any point is a function
of several variables which are not directly related
to insulation quality. Among others, these variables
include ambient temperature, movement of the air,
roughness and emissivity of the heat flow surface, and
the radiation exchange with the surroundings (often
including a great variety of interest). For the calculation
of dew formation, variability of the local humidity is an
important factor.
Insulation desigh criterion
Apart from a choice of suitable insulation material
for given application it is essential to design proper
insulation thickness. It can be determined from two
points of view:
Heat loss minimalisation, it means reaching the highest
possible economic savings (ideally to calcutate economic
insulation by so-called optimalisation).
Maximum surface temperature (personal protection
against burn). It is usually prescribed by national
legislation. Usual maximum surface temperature is
50 C if the surrounding air temperature is 25 C. If the
air temperature is different, temperature difference
between surface and surrounding air should be up to
25 C. Outdoor piping shall be controlled for maximum
surface temperature every time for summer period
(in the Central Europe calculation air temperature is
30 C). In boiler rooms, surrounding air temperature is
minimally 35 C.
Parameters influencing insulation thick-
ness design
Heat flow from the insulation surface is a function of
several parameters which do not relate directly to the
quality of the insulation. Here are several parameters
that influence design:
thermal conductivity of the insulation material,
medium temperature,
ambient temperature,
external heat transfer coefficient.
ECONOMIC THICKNESS
The most substantial return on an investment in
insulation is in energy savings over a period of time.
Thermal insulation is one of the most, if not the most,
significant technology used to conserve energy, thereby
reducing pollution. Rising energy costs guarantee an
increasing return on any investment made in insulation.
In fact, it costs less to insulate, than not to. In the case
of steam process and heat, the difference in capital
investment necessary to provide equipment for the
extra steam capacity needed on underinsulated systems
and that investment necessary to insulate plus the
cost of insulation, still represents a significant capital
investment savings. That insulation saves money is not
the issue here. The issue is how much.
6-7
Economic thickness calculations are based on the law
of diminishing returns. Because no insulation material
can completely stop the flow of heat, each increment of
insulation added to the thickness saves only a percentage
of the heat which has escaped through the underlying
insulation. Therefore, each increment of insulation
saves less than the one before it and must be evaluated
against the cost of installation to determine if it is a
good investment. It is possible to determine how much
insulation applied to a given system will repay its initial
costs in a specified time. This point is reached when the
cost of the last incremental of insulation added is offset
by the savings generated by that increment.
Refer to the stetch on the left. The vertical scale is the
annual cost. The horizontal scale is insulation thickness.
As the insulation thickness increases from 0, the cost of
heat loss through the insulation decreases. Note that this
cost (line B) tends to approach a horizontal line at high
thicknesses. As the insulation thickness increases, the
cost of the insulation also increases (line A). The total
annual cost at any insulation thickness is the sum of the
cost of the insulation and the cost of the lost heat (line
C). Line C goes through a minimum value of total annual
cost at the Economic thickness.
With thicknesses less than the economic thickness, the
total annual cost is higher because of the higher value
of the cost of lost heat. With thicknesses higher than
the economic thickness, the total annual cost is higher
because of the higher value of the cost of the insulation.
In the case of computer results, each pipe size will be
listed with the recommended thickness, as well as
the average heat savings (as compared to a pre-listed
thickness or bare surface, whichever chosen) and the
present value of the heat saved.
In order to use any of the available manuals, tables
or computer programs, the two cost factors (cost of
lost energy and cost of insulation) must be found. The
following data is generally provided by the investor.
Cost of lost energy
This factor is derived from the combination of the
rate of energy transfer, the cost of energy and the
operational hours per year of the building. Computing
the rate of energy transfer requires: surface and
ambient temperatures, thermal conductivity of the
chosen insulation, the maximum/minimum thickness of
insulation to be considered, surface emissivity and last
but not least consideration of surface orientation (i .e.
vertical, horizontal) and wind (air) velocity.
Cost of insulation
This factor is derived from computing a unit installed
price of insulation with the total cost annualized over
the projects life. The unit installed price is a combination
of the cost of materials, cost of labor and worker
productivity. This is a sensitive variable in the economic
thickness calculation. Only the roughest of regional
averages are available. As a result, care must be taken not
to perceive these estimates as fixed budget prices used
for installing insulation. Material prices are related to the
volume and cost of the insulation, jacketing, securement,
finishing, and structural support material used. Also
included in this figure are storage and handling costs to
the contractor. Labor costs vary regionally, and include
wages, fringe benefits, per diem and travel expenses,
as well as overhead and profit. Labor production varies
with pipe size, complexity, number of layers necessary,
accessibility of piping and surfaces, type of materials
used, and general working conditions. Other costs
involve the job size and increase with the magnitude of
the job. They include the preparation scaffolding, clean-
up, and tear-down costs, supervision costs, and general
overhead.
ISOCAL
For economic thickness calculation program IsoCal
can be used. The program also handles the following
calculations:
heat loss calculation,
temperature change in pipes or ducts,
temperature change in a tank,
internal or external condensation,
frost protection of water pipes,
sound attenuation in ducts.
IsoCal is a computer program for calculations of
thermal insulation for building equipment and
industrial installations. The program mainly calculates
according to EN ISO 12 241. IsoCal has been developed
primarily for Saint-Gobain Isovers range of insulation
products, it is however possible to perform more
generic calculations. For more information about the
English version 1.0 please contact your local Isover
representative.
MAXIMUM SERVICE TEMPERATURE
MST is determined in a laboratory by testing under de-
fined conditions which are dependent upon the form
of delivery and which are laid down in EN 14 706 (for
wired or lamella mats, slabs and felts) and EN 14 707
(for pipe sections and segments). MST is determined
by establishing the temperature and time related de-
crease in thickness in one-sided heating. For the test,
the sample shall take a load of 500 Pa. The sample is
heated with a transient of at least 5 K/min. The hot-
face temperature must be maintained for 72 hours at
the expected maximum service temperature. At the
maximum service temperature, no test result must dis-
play a deformation under load of more than 5 %.
In data sheets of different producers (not only mineral
wool) you will often find MST and value which is not
measured accordance to EN 14 706. This temperature
is only assumed. When using such temperature there
is a danger of insulation degradation, mainly insulation
thickness. If mineral wool product has MST 700 or 750 C
in its data sheet you can be sure that the material will
not withstand such temperature without degradation
of assessed properties. Such temperatures shall not
be used. Producers should leave field of assumed MST
and test their products to be able to use declared
MST according to EN 14 706. It is an outstanding
improvement compared to the past, because individual
products on the European market can be compared to
each other according to standards valid in the EU.
Slabs, wired and lamella mats Orstech are certificated
according to valid European standards, they are
regularly tested in testing laboratory FIW Mnchen
according to VDI 2055 and AGI Q 132. Maximum service
temperatures for various products can be found at the
end of the catalogue in the chapter Isover Products on
page 21).
EVAPORATION OF BINDERS
Binders and greasing agents in mineral wool products
dissolve and evaporate in areas with temperatures
higher than 150 C. Binder evaporation does not have any
influence on thermal properties; only the compactness
of a material is decreased. If proper underconstruction
is made there is almost no danger of insulation slide
down. But if too small insulation thickness or improper
type of insulation is used (mostly insulation with too
low density for too high temperatures) danger of binder
evaporation in the whole thickness is possible with
consequent insulation slide down. In this case no well
made underconstruction will help. Insulation will not
work any more. In the outer, colder areas, no dissolution
and evaporation take place.

FIRE PERFORMANCE
FIRE a chemical reaction involving rapid oxidation or
burning of a fuel occurs only when three elements are
present in the proper conditions and proportions.
FUEL Fuel can be any combustible material - solid,
liquid or gas. Most solids and liquids become a vapour
or gas before they burn.

OXYGEN The air we breathe is about 21 % oxygen. Fire
only needs an atmosphere with at least 16 % oxygen.
HEAT Heat is the energy necessary to increase the
temperature of the fuel to a point where sufficient
vapours are given off for ignition to occur.
Fire development depends mostly on room geometry
and ventilation, the fuel type, the amount and surface
area of the fuel. Fire is often discussed in terms of the
temperature development and can be divided into
different stages: incipience (ignition), growth, flashover,
fully developed fire and decay.
How materials behave in the early stages of a fire, from
ignition to flashover (the spontaneous ignition of hot
smoke and gasses) needs to be assessed at the design
stage for buildings and also for plants and equipment.
Euroclasses, a new European harmonised classification
system for materials reaction to fire in most European
countries replaced the old national standards. The
Euroclass fire classification covers not only materials
used in building structures, but it is being extended also
to technical insulations to cover building equipment
and industrial installations. This will help to compare
the reaction to fire of different thermal insulation
materials.
The classification levels are A1/A2 (completely non-
combustible) B, C, D, E and F. A1/A2 corresponds to
the safest situation. E would be the most dangerous
situation and F would mean not classified.
ISOVER mineral wool insulations are totally non-
combustible and completely fire safe, achieving
Euroclass A1 fire rating (A2 for products with facing)
when classified in accordance with EN 13501-1. One
of the most important issues studied under reaction to
fire performance is the potential for flashover to occur,
which can lead to a fire spreading uncontrollably. Isover
stone wool is not susceptible to flashover.
This is a guide to common building materials and their
likely Euroclassification.
Check with individual product manufactures for spedific
product specifications.
REACTION TO FIRE
Smoke and flaming droplet risk
(1) In the EU classification system for reaction to fire,
a construction product will be classified as Euroclass A1,
A2, B, C, D, E or F depending on its tendency to burn.
(2) The product testing will provide data, represented
by the signs s1, s2, or s3, which indicate the tendency
to release smoke. Smoke causes over 60 % of deaths in
fire across the EU. The measurement of smoke release
has been put into these 3 broad bands that can be
translated as little or no smoke s1 - quite a lot of
smoke s2 - substantial smoke release s3.
(3) Some construction products, like these made of
polystyrene, can melt and ignite to form Flaming
Droplets. Wooden products, on the other hand, will tend
to char before the char falls away as Flaming Particles
to expose more material.
These flaming droplets/particles will tend to
initiate new fires away from the original point of
ignition and must be considered when the products
are used horizontally in ceiling or roof applications.
The classification system ranks the level of release of
flaming droplets/particles as d0 (none), d1 (some) and
d2 (quite a lot).

FIRE PROTECTION DESIGN FOR VENTILATION DUCTS
Produced with the stone wool technology of Isover,
fire protection system ORSTECH Protect is mineral
wool that combines all the advantages of conventional
thermal and acoustic insulation with top level of fire
safety. Mineral wool insulations have the melting point
higher than 1000 C. From the fire protection point of
view products Isover are one of the safest materials.
ORSTECH Protect consists of slab or lamella mat
solutions, offering up to one hour fire protection for
both vertical and horizontal applications of rectangular
and circular ductwork systems.
Passive protection of ventilation ducts is possible by
two basic means:
Installed a fire damper into the duct to the place of
fire separation
Use a fire protection insulation system, which is
tested according EN 1366-1 and has a classification
protocol in accordance with EN 13 501-3. This second
case is covered by insulation system ORSTECH
Protect.
LEGISLATION
Air duct, which shall resist the spread of fire from one
compartment to another, is tested according to EN
1366-1. The standard can be applied to vertical and
horizontal ducts, with or without branches, for fire inside
or outside the duct. The test measures the time period
for which ducts, of specified dimensions, suspended as
they would be in practice, satisfy criteria when exposed
to fire from inside or outside (separately).
This standard is used in conjunction with EN 1363-1,
which prescribes requirements for the determination
of fire resistance of various components of building
structures which are exposed to standard fire
conditions. In this standard there are failure criteria
whereby it is possible to evaluate the ability of a tested
duct to prevent fire spread due to the destruction of
the duct (integrity failure E), heat transfer (insulation
failure I) and prevention of the smoke penetration
(smoke leakage S). Fire protection is expressed by time
in minutes for which failure criteria are fulfilled.
Designation itself is then done according to
classification standard EN 13 501-3. Classification
states if criteria are fulfilled for fire outside (marking
o i), valid for duct type A, or fire inside (marking
i o) or from both directions (i o), valid for duct type
B, and if this is valid for a horizontal duct (marking ho)
or a vertical one (ve), or both (ve, ho). E.g. class EI 30 S
ve, ho (o i) S represents duct capability to maintain
integrity, insulation and smoke leakage for time period
of 30 minutes under fire exposure from outside, both
for vertical and horizontal positions.
MAXIMUM DUCT SIZES
Maximum size is according to EN 1366-1 for rectangular
duct 1250 x 1000 mm and for circular duct up to
diameter 1000 mm. If a duct has bigger dimensions, the
classification protocol cannot be used.

ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE
Noise is a sound which impacts negatively on the
surroundings. Noise levels emanating from HVAC
services (pipework, ductwork and air handling
equipment) and other services can be significantly
reduced with the use of Isover products, which will
help to achieve acceptable environmental noise levels.
Isover insulations are due to its fibre structure, an ideal
material for sound attenuation not only for industrial
application. The degree of sound insulation will depend
upon the application, the thickness of insulation used
and the nature of any finish used to clad over the
installation. In suitable frequencies they can absorb up
to 95 % of the sound energy ( = 0.95).
SOUND ABSORPTION
When a sound wave strikes a surface, the sound energy
is broken down into transmitted energy (through the
material), converted energy (usually heat) and reflected
energy (back towards the source of the sound).
The more absorbent the material, the less sound is
reflected. That part of sound energy which is converted
and transmitted is usually expressed as an absorption
coefficient .
The absorption coefficient for a material varies with
the frequency. An absorbent layer of mineral wool
has the best absorption capacity in medium and high
frequencies. The absorption in low frequencies is
improved by increasing the thickness or by providing an
air gap behind the absorbent layer.
Examples of the effectiveness of Isover products in noise
control are given in the following table.
ABSORPTIVE STRUCTURES
The most common task in room acoustics is to attenuate
or cancel some frequencies or a whole frequency band.
This is possible to realise by using convenient absorptive
material or structures which are frequency-dependent.
In this way we can control not only absorption, i.e.
reverberation time, but also suppress or completely
remove unpleasant sounds.
In a porous material, acoustic absorption is mainly
caused by friction in pores, i.e. friction between
oscillating particles and the surface of pores. Since the
energy loss due to friction is proportional to the length
of the path, the most absorption will occur when the
porous material is placed in a position where the particle
displacement is the largest (maxima displacement).
When sound strikes a rigid wall like concrete, for
example, a standing wave result and the maxima of
particle displacement appear at the distances
1
/4,

/4, 5

/4, from the surface of a room. These are the
critical distances which must be covered by adsorbers,
i.e. layers with thicknesses d

=

In short, an absorber with a thickeness d placed directly
on the solid structure will effectively attenuate only
those frequencies, where f c/4d (c is the velocity of
sound 340 m/s). For example, insulation thickness
of 50 mm will reliably attenuate frequencies higher
than 1700 Hz, thickness 100 mm then already from
frequencies 850 Hz. The higher the frequency, the
shorter the wave length and better attenuation.
An absorbing layer, tightly adjacent to a solid structure,
has nevertheless, one disadvantage. To attenuate
low frequencies it would be necessary to use very
thick layers (for example for attenuation of 500 Hz a
thickness of about 20 cm would be necessary). Therefore
acoustic tiles can hardly attenuate low frequency noise
(frequencies lower than 100 dB, such as noise from
discotheques).
Fortunately, it is possible to avoid expensive acoustic
tiles with high thickness. If we use a very thin layer
and place it just in the position of the displacement
maximum of a chosen frequency, this chosen frequency
and its odd multiples will be attenuated. Acoustic
tiles thus work as a selective frequency filter. On the
selective basis also other acoustic attenuators work,
namely membranes, oscillating plates and resonators.

ACOUSTICS INSULATIONS
Isover stone wool products with a high longitudinal air-
flow resistance (up to 95 kPa.s/m
2
) and uniform porosity
(93 99 %) are used as sound attenuation insulations.
In suitable frequencies they can absorb up to 95 % of
the sound energy ( = 0.95). Sound attenuation in a
construction is related to elastic properties of Isover
mineral wool insulations and their low modulus of
elasticity (they have low dynamic toughness and
therefore they are much more suitable for acoustic
purposes in comparison with foam plastics).
Sound attenuation properties of Isover products are
characterised by an absorption coefficient , which
can be found in the table for three thicknesses and
six frequencies. According to a given noise spectrum,
it is possible to design a sound attenuation structure
of which our material is only a part. Since we provide
only insulation material, we launch only absorption
coefficients. Final attenuation will be dependent on
the whole designed construction (considering also
supporting construction, hangers) and assembly.
Isover does not design sound attenuation and thus it
is necessary to ask specialists who are able to design a
proper structure.
Generally we can say that transmission loss is higher
for constructions with higher plane weight, therefore
in most cases insulation with higher density has
better sound attenuation (e.g. slabs Orstech 65, 90,
110, Isover FireProtect 150) than insulation with lower
density (e.g. Orstech 45). Slabs can be manufactured
with a facing glass black tissue.

GENERAL RULES FOR USING ISOVER INSULATIONS
Between insulated piping sufficient distances must
be kept.
Valves should be placed without needing to go on the
insulated pipes when handling them.
Spindle of valves should not be installed in an upward
direction to avoid water leakage into the insulation.
Surfaces before insulating must be clean and dry. It
is not possible to insulate wet or frostbitten surfaces
which may later cause damages of insulation or
insulated surfaces.
Dirt and rust must be rubbed down from untreated
carbon steels.
Smear and oils must be removed by detergents or
solvents from insulated surfaces.
Stainless steel surfaces must not be cleaned by
detergents or solvents with chloride content. They
may be cleaned only by stainless steel brushes.
Chloride solution attacks stainless steel surface and
causes stress corrosion cracking in the material. With
increasing surface temperature the danger of stress
corrosion cracking is raised.
Piping and equipment from stainless steel can be
insulated only by mineral wool insulation in AS
quality. Such material can have maximum content
of chloride ions of 10 mg in 1 kg of the insulation
material.
It is necessary to avoid contact of metals which can
cause galvanic corrosion (Cu-Zn, Fe-Al).
For operating temperatures higher than 600 C
aluminium jacketing should not be used.
Self-tapping screw, bold or rivet should be from the
same material as the jacketing.
Surfaces with temperatures higher than 500 C
should be insulated by more insulation layers in a
way that each layer has a different apparent density.
Material with higher density insulates better under
higher temperatures than material with lower
density; therefore insulation with higher density is
placed closer to the hot side. Under low operating
temperatures thermal performance is almost equal.
Safety working principles must be kept for insulation
assembly.
Isover products are packed into PE foil. They must be
transported in covered vehicles under such conditions
to avoid moistening or other degradation. They must
be stored in covered places.
Wired mats
After the cutting of needed length the wired mat shall
be tightly wrapped on the pipe. Wired mats butt joints
should be in close contact to each other to ensure no
gaps between mats. For multiple layer construction
each layer is staggered when applied. Each layer must
be secured in place before the next is applied. Individual
mats are bound together with a wire with minimal 0.7
mm thickness. Alternatively wired hook or stainless
steel bands (with minimum width of 10 mm) can be
used. Maximum distance between hooks is 150 mm.
The decision to use multiple layers may be made for one
or more of the following reasons:
to provide compensation for pipe expansion and
contraction,
to reduce heat flow by staggering joints, thus creating
a more thermally efficient installation,
to achieve thickness in excess of manufacturers
capabilities,
for retrofitting purposes.
Lamella mats
Lamella mats Orstech LSP H consist of mineral wool
lamellas which have been glued to aluminium foil
reinforced with a glass fibre grid, and these fibres are
predominantly perpendicular to the surface of the
mat. Compressive strength, but thermal conductivity
too, are increased compared to mats with a fibre
orientation parallel to the surface (wired mats). Due
to its compressive strength resistance they have less
demands for undeconstruction (less thermal bridges)
in comparison with wired mats. Temporary securing in
place is done by aluminium tapes, final fixing shall be
done by a baling wire.
Protective coverings
The efficiency and service of insulation is directly
dependent upon its protection from moisture entry and
mechanical and chemical damage. Choices of jacketing
materials are based upon the mechanical, chemical,
thermal and moisture conditions of the installation,
as well as cost and appearance requirements. The
basic function of the weather protection is to protect
the insulation from rain, snow, sleet, wind, solar
radiation, atmospheric contamination and mechanical
damage. With this definition in mind, several service
requirements must be considered.
PIPING INSULATION
For domestic hot water piping with smaller diameters,
insulation pipe sections, which are covered with
aluminium foil, are ideal. Pipe sections with a facing
have a self-adhesive overlap in a longitudinal joint
to ensure perfect enclosure of a pipe section. It is
recommended to secure pipe sections by an aluminium
tape or by galvanized wire transversely. They are usually
knotted three times per meter, more for pipe sections
with higher diameter. Higher diameters should be
secured either by wire or by metal band (at least two
bands per meter).
Pipings with bigger diameters are most commonly
insulated by lamella mats Orstech LSP (stone wool
insulation) or Isover ML-3 (glass wool insulation),
eventually by wired mats Orstech DP (especially for higher
temperatures). Lamella and wired mats are also suitable
for appliances and vessels (both ends and cylindrical
parts), residential heating systems and air ducts.

Internal mechanical forces expansion and contraction
of the pipe or vessel must be considered because the
resulting forces are transferred to the external surface of
the weather barrier. Ability to slide, elongate or contract
must be provided.
External mechanical forces mechanical abuse (i.e.,
tools being dropped, abrasion from wind-driven sand,
personnel walking on the system) inflicted on a pipe or
vessel needs to be considered in design. This may affect
insulation type, as well as the weather barrier jacketing
type.
Chemical resistance: Some industrial environments may
have airborne or spilled corrosive agents that accumulate
on the weather barrier and chemically attack the pipe or
vessel jacketing. Elements that create corrosive issues
must be well understood and accounted for. Insulation
design of coastal facilities should account for chloride
attack.
Galvanic corrosion: Contacts between two different
types of metal must be considered for galvanic corrosion
potential. Similarly, water can act as an electrolyte and
galvanic corrosion can occur because of the different
potential of the pipe and vessel and a metal jacketing.
Materials used as weather barriers for insulation:
Typical metal jacketing materials: bare aluminium, coated
aluminium, stainless steel, painted steel, galvanized steel,
aluminium-zinc coated steel.
Typical polymeric jacketing materials: polyvinyl chloride
(PVC), polyvinyliedene chloride (PVDC), polyisobutylene,
multiple-layer composite materials (e.g., polymeric/foil/
mesh laminates), fabrics (silicone-impregnated fibreglass).
Fittings, valves
Insulation of fittings, valves, flanges and couplings is
the most time consuming and often expensive aspect
of commercial and industrial insulation. But it is crucial
to insulate also these parts properly, otherwise most of
energy will be transported by these thermal bridges. For
example, for 200 C medium, heat loss of one uninsulated
valve corresponds to one meter of uninsulated pipe or
ten meters of uninsulated pipe.
Fittings are items used to change size, direction of flow,
level or assembly of piping. They may be of the screwed,
sweat or welded types. Valves are any of various devices
that regulate liquid or gas flow and they may be of the
screwed, sweated, flanged, or welded types. Flanges are
protruding rims and edges of the screwed or sweated
type used with fittings, valves, couplings, etc. And finally
mechanical couplings are devices used in assembly of
piping. Screwed and flanged connections on fittings,
valves, couplings, etc. usually require oversized insulation
applications to compensate for the protrusions.
Minimum spacing between pipes and
constructions
It is essential to ensure sufficient space between pipies
and between a pipe and a wall (minimally 100 mm).
Otherwise, there is a great danger of creating a zone with
almost no cenvenction. The result can be too high surface
temperature (needed personal protection against burn)
or possibility of condensation on cold piping. Besides
mounting would have been more difficult.

DUCTING INSULATION
Isover products are designed to provide high levels of
thermal, acoustic and fre protection insulation in HVAC
ductwork applications, such as rectangular, fat oval and
circular ductwork.
The most suitable insulation materials for ducts are
felts KLIMAROL with aluminium foil facing, lamella mats
Orstech LSP or Isover ML-3, wired mats Orstech DP or
slabs Orstech H with aluminium foil facing.
Duct insulation mounting
Insulation is mostly fxed to the duct by welded pins.
When using Orstech H slabs with aluminium facing all
the joints shall be sealed with aluminium tape. If a steel
clamping band is used it is necessary to use thin-walled
steel L-profles to avoid trimming of the insulation. If
using Orstech slabs without aluminium facing or Orstech
DP wired mats, proper jacketing shall be made (the most
suitable is metal steel jacketing).

FIRE PROTECTION OF VENTILATION DUCT
Description
It is vital to develop safe, durable and reliable solutions
for ventilation systems as fire can easily spread from the
point of origin via ductwork. Isover meets the highest
standards for fire protection, providing excellent fire
resistance and top-rated reaction to fire performance.
Rectangular ducts shall be insulated by Orstech 65 H
slabs with 40 mm thickness (60 mm for fire resistance EI
60 for a horizontal duct); circular ducts shall be insulated
by Orstech LSP PYRO lamella mats with 50 mm thickness.
By these solutions fire resistances EI 15, 30, 45 and 60 S
have been certified to comply with EN 1366-1.
Orstech system with fire resistance has been proven to
meet the requirements of all possible scenarios for fire
from the outside. The scenarios can be identified by duct
orientation and duct shape (see table below). Horizontal
ducts normally serve one floor of a building. Vertical
ducts normally serve between floors of a building. All
scenarios have been done only with one layer. Insulation
is fixed to a duct by welded pins. Such solution is time
and material saving.
Metal ductwork
The steel duct is constructed in sections of galvanised
steel sheet or stainless steel sheet minimum 0.8 mm thick
(standard duct sheeting for rectangular ducts specified
in DIN 24190, for circular ducts in DIN 24145). Maximum
duct size for which classification protocol is valid is 1250
mm (width) x 1000 mm (height) for rectangular duct or
diameter up to 1000 mm for a circular duct.
At each cross joint flanges are fastened to the duct
with spot welds at 150 mm nominal centres.
Use a ceramic tape gasket and fire-stopping mastic
between the flanges to seal the joints.
Flanges are bolted together with an M10 steel nut
and bolt at each corner.
Fasten the flanges together with steel clamps with
bolts M8 (see the figure) in quantity of 3 clamps per 1
meter of the flange length.
Drop rods and hangers
Rectangular ducts are suspended by threaded rods and
channel section bearers. A duct shall be hung with a
suspension system which is independently fire rated
according to EN 1363-1. Certificated suspension system
MUPRO is recommended for the purpose. Each steel
hanger consists of two threaded drop rods, minimum
M10 and a channel section bearer 38/40 mm. Fasten
the bearer to the drop rods using hexagonal nuts and
washers. The drop rods can be positioned either inside
the insulation material or outside. If drop rods are outside
there is no need to insulate them separately. The bearers
are positioned inside the insulation material.
Circular ducts are suspended by MPRO steel hangers
which consist of two threaded drop rods, minimum
M10, and a two-part industrial circular band. The ends
of each band section are bent outwards. Fasten the band
sections together and attach them to the drop rods with
hexagonal nuts and washers. Place these hangers inside
the insulation. The rods do not need to be protected by
insulation.
When fixing them to a concrete construction use all-
steel expanding anchors to fasten the threaded rod
hangers to concrete soffits. The anchors should penetrate
the concrete by at least 60 mm. When fixing to a steel
supporting construction drill a hole through the steel
member, allowing the drop rod to be supported by a steel
nut and washer above. If a clamp type fixing is used, the
clamp must be steel, suitable for the purpose. It should
pass around the steel member and be fastened back on
itself. Clamps that rely on friction to hold them in place
are not suitable.

Insulation
Rectangular ducts are insulated by Orstech 65 H slabs
(with apparent density 65 kg/m
3
and with one-sided
aluminium foil facing) with 40 mm thickness (60 mm
for fire resistance EI 60 for a horizontal duct). Circular
ducts are insulated by lamella mats Orstech LSP PYRO
with 50 mm thickness. Insulation slabs (lamella mats)
need to be cut to fit the duct as tightly as possible; the
insulation may need to be cut to fit around flanged duct
joints. Install the insulation so that one slab (lamella
mat) is adjacent and tightly fitted against the other. No
gaps must be present between butt joints of insulation.
Insulation can be easily cut with a standard laggers knife.
There is no need for adhesive on joints. All the joints shall
be sealed by aluminium tape. For rectangular ducts in the
position of flange the slabs are snick first 15 mm of the
thickness to avoid lifting of the slabs. Butt joints should
be positioned out of flanges. Fire protective insulation for
circular ducts does not require usage of a wire net mesh
on the outer side of insulation.

Stud welded pins
The insulation is fixed to the duct using steel pins, 2.7 mm
to 3 mm nominal diameter, and spring steel washers,
minimum 30 mm diameter. The length of pin should
be equal to the insulation thickness. The orientational
number of pins is 16 pieces/m
2
for rectangular ducts and
14 pieces/m
2
for circular ducts.
Recommended distance from duct edges and joints is
80 mm, 50 mm from flanges.
Wall/floor penetration
At wall/floor penetration one must insure the same fire
resistance of ventilation duct as has the fire separation
to avoid the spreading of fire from one compartment to
other via a duct. This is possible by two basic principles
or their combinations - install a fire damper at the
penetration point or use insulation with fire resistance,
where the crucial thing is the fire-stopping. The fire-
stopping is from the second insulation layer with the
width of 150 mm from both side of fire separation.
The same general principle is used for both rectangular
and circular ducts regardless of orientation. Place
the duct in the penetration of the construction, with
approximately 10 mm gap between insulated duct and
opening. Before installing the fire-stopping with the
same insulation thickness as is used for the first layer,
pack the space between the duct and partition with
as many pieces of insulation as possible. Ensure tight
compression in order to completely fill the opening. This
must be done, because system ORSTECH Protect does
not require stiffeners inside the duct. Then install the
second insulation layer so that it is adjacent and tightly
fitted against the penetration. The insulation must be
cut leaving excess length, so that it exerts some pressure
between the penetration and the last fitted piece of
insulation.
The second layer is fixed by welded pins with length
equal to double insulation thickness. The second layer for
circular ducts (lamella mats) is clamped with 1-2 wires
with a diameter 1.6 mm. Then the insulation is secured
to the duct by welded pins.
A inovative solution is the considerable simplification of
a fire-stopping concept. There is no need to use any kind
of stiffener either inside or outside of the duct. A great
advantage is to mount the whole ventilation section
at once and the wall itself can be placed anywhere.
Therefore the position variability of fire separation is
provided. No glue or mastic is needed at wall/floor
penetrations.
Fire classification
ORSTECH Protect insulation with fire resistance has
been tested by the fire testing laboratory Pavus, a.s., an
authorised body AO 216. Classification protocols on the
request.
Fire protection system ORSTECH Protect has been tested
in accordance with EN 1366-1. Maximum size for the
rectangular duct is 1250 x 1000 mm and for the circular
duct up to diameter 1000 mm. If a duct has bigger
dimensions, the certificate connected to the standard
cannot be used.
More information
For more information about fire protective systems
ORSTECH Protect and ULTIMATE Protect see product date
sheets.
Butt joints of insulation are placed
apart from fanges.
There is no need to use any
kind of stiffener either in-
side or outside of the duct.
Cross-section through a duct at the fre-stopping
(wall/foor penetration)
18-19
to provide compensation for pipe expansion and
contraction,
to reduce heat flow by staggering joints, thus creating
a more thermally efficient installation,
to achieve thickness in excess of manufacturers
capabilities,
for retrofitting purposes.
Insulation is usually fixed by mechanical fasteners - by
studs or pins. Spacing between them is dependent on the
design of the vessel, its surface temperature, fire hazard
potential involved and presumptive loading. Each slab
should be fixed by minimally two pins.
BOILER INSULATION
Insulations for boilers, kettles and ovens are one of
the most demanding applications in industry, because
these units are operating at very high temperatures.
Good insulation not only saves energy considerably, but
the main purpose is personal protection against burn.
According to the surface shape and temperature are used
either slabs with higher densities Orstech 65 to 110 (for
boilers with flat surfaces) or wired mats Orstech DP 65 to
DP 100 (for boilers with cylindrical parts).
Boiler walls are exposed to very high temperatures
(usually around 500 or 600 C). Therefore it is essential
to use mechanical fasteners for the fixing of insulation
to the surface. Insulation for boilers is done in at least
two layers; each layer must be staggered when applied.
Each layer must be secured in place before the next is
applied. A product with high density should be placed as
the first layer, because it has a higher maximum surface
temperature (higher resistance against high operating
temperatures) and better insulation performace than
products with lower densities.
CHIMNEY INSULATION
Insulations for prefabricated chimneys are directly
supplied by producers of such systems. In cooperation
with specialized wholesale companies we offer slabs
with multi-plate stripes, which allow easy and perfect
application for prefabricated chimneys, suitable both
for stainless steel chimney liners, as well as with other
brands of chimney lining systems. The main advantage
is the time saving during the installation in comparison
with the use of lamella mats, and horizontal orientation
of fibres (better thermal conductivity). Insulation
dimensions, i.e. thickness of slabs and groove dimensions
dependent on the chimney diameter, are supplied
according to customer needs.
For non-prefabricated chimneys are mostly used wired
mats Orstech DP or slabs Orstech 90 or 110 (for chimneys
with rectangular cross-section).
TECHNOLOGICAL APPLIANCE
INSULATION
Where big quantities of energy is used, e.g. within
petrochemical, paper and pulp industries, thermal
insulation is necessary in order to reduce expensive
energy losses. Tanks, vessels, exhausts, exchangers
and technological piping are appliances that are often
working at high temperatures. Good insulation will save
energy considerably, which will benefit the environment
and keep the working costs down. At the same time
the insulation will reduce temperature fall, which could
disturb the production process.
Proper insulation can be chosen in accordance with
dimension, surface temperature, the manner of fixing
and requirements for jacketing. For pipes and cylindrical
parts are used lamella mats Orstech LSP H and Isover
ML-3 (only for temperatures up to 250 C) or wired mats
Orstech DP. For appliances and vessels with rectangular
shapes Orstech slabs are suitable (type according to a
surface temperature). Slabs can have aluminium facing.
If insulation is done in more than one layer, each layer
is staggered when applied. Each layer must be secured
in place before the next is applied. The decision to use
multiple layers may be made for one or more of the
following reasons:

Insulation pipe section cut from mineral wool blocks. Pre-formed mineral wool snap-on pipe sections are single-
layered hollow cylinders made of one or more segments. Snap-on configuration prevents the longitudinal slot
against heat loss. Pipe Sections can be supplied without an outer facing or with a factory-applied reinforced
aluminium foil facing incorporating a self-adhesive overlap. Insulation pipe sections designed to provide thermal
and acoustic insulation of pipework in HVAC and industrial applications. Maximum service temperature: 620 C.
Surface temperature on the aluminium side must not exceed 100 C; proper thickness of insulation must be
designed to fulfil that. Reaction to fire: A1
L
(pipe section without facing), A2
L
(pipe section with aluminium foil).
Mineral wool fibres are processed into the final shape of blocks at the production line from which several producers
cut insulation pipe sections themselves that are sold under various trademark on the market. Non-standard
dimensions which are not in the table can be produced after agreement with a producer. Outer piping diameter =
inner insulation pipe section diameter.

Wired mat with reinforced aluminium foil facing U Protect Wired Mat 4.0 Alu1 is part of certified fire
protective system ULTIMATE Protect for fire protection of air ducts.
Corner joints are secured with Isover FireProtect Screws, the screw length must be 2 x the insulation
thickness.
To avoid leakage caused by elongation of the ductwork, the slabs/mats need to be glued to the fire-
separation construction using Isover Protect BSK (thickness ~ 2 mm). No other joint has to be glued.

Fire protective system ULTIMATE Protect
Progressive insulation system ULTIMATE Protect for fire protection of air ducts (EN 1366-1) and multi-compartment smoke extraction ducts (EN 1366-8).
Rectangular ducts are insulated by slabs U Protect Slab 4.0 Alu1. Circular ducts are insulated by wired mats U Protect Wired Mat 4.0 Alu1. Thickness is dependent
on required fire resistance. Density of both products is just 66 kg/m
3
thus makes cutting, bending or filling faster and more efficient than ever. Details about
ULTIMATE Protect system are available in system data sheets.
Composition of the system:
Slabs U Protect Slab 4.0 Alu1 or wired mats U Protect Wired Mat 4.0 Alu1. Isover FireProtect Screw
Intumescent paint Isover Protect BSF Non-combustible glue Isover Protect BSK
Slab with reinforced aluminium foil facing U Protect Slab 4.0 Alu1 is part of certified fire protective
system ULTIMATE Protect for fire protection of air ducts and multi-compartment smoke extraction
ducts.
Seal the joint with intumescent paint Isover Protect BSF to prevent gas leakage at the penetration of
fire separation wall. This has to be done on both sides of the construction. Use a spatula to apply a
layer of ~2 mm thickness. Penetration done according to system data sheet is full-valued solution of the
fire-stopping, no other special solution is needed. When exposed to fire or heat, the product develops
a micro-porous, insulating foam-layer, protecting duct from the influence of fire due to its low heat
conductivity and the lack of oxygen.
