The ability of nano-foam to withstand high temperatures (long-term operating temperature is about 150 ° C, short-term peak temperature can reach 200 ° C); withstand low temperature capacity (long-term working temperature is about -150 ° C, short-term peak temperature can be reached - 180 ° C) and flame retardant, making it suitable for more technically demanding work.

Researchers have found that their low temperature stability is utilized. The nano-foam can be used to heat the steel tank filled with liquid natural gas for a long time at a temperature of about -160 ° C. This material is highly advantageous in this regard as the technology currently used to transport liquid gases is outdated.

Further applications include the insulation of hot water tanks and their equipment. A system solution based on nanofoam makes the insulation available for the entire tank wall.

Through the shape mechanical cutting, the nano foam can be processed into a thermal insulation material for pipeline protection. While providing insulation, energy losses are controlled, maintenance is simplified, and noise levels are reduced.

A useful combination: flexibility and stability at low temperatures; nanofoams retain their properties at laboratory temperatures of about -200 ° C in laboratory tests. For this reason, this combination of features that can insulate a liquid natural gas tank has many advantages: this high-elasticity and heat-insulating foam is not affected by low temperatures compared to conventional foams that are brittle at the same low temperature. . It is also possible to combine nanofoam with other foams. Conventional foam breakage can be prevented by applying a layer of nanofoam on the outside of a conventional foam with unique insulation and processability to protect it from low temperature liquid gases.

Liquid natural gas is usually transported from the storage to consumers through pipelines for transportation distances up to 2,500 kilometers. If the transport distance is longer, it is usually more economical to liquefy the gas and use the shipping. Since liquid natural gas is stored at extremely low temperatures, it must be transported through containers with efficient insulation.

Case:

                1. Insulation materials for natural steam pipes, methanol, etc.;

                2. After the profiled processing, the aluminum is thin and the non-woven fabric forms a new thermal insulation material for use in the industrial field.
