Comparison of Shandong External Wall Insulation Materials: Four Characteristics of Insulation Materials You Need to Know
2023-05-10

Shandong external wall insulation refers to the application of a layer of thermal insulation material on the outer side of the building's walls, with the main purpose of improving the building's energy efficiency. With the increasing demand for building energy efficiency, various insulation materials are emerging in the market. So, what kind of Shandong exterior wall insulation material is suitable to choose? This article will introduce and compare common external wall insulation materials.



1. Polystyrene board


Polystyrene board is a kind of foam plastic. Because of its unique insulation and thermal insulation properties, it is widely used in the field of building external wall insulation. Polystyrene board has the characteristics of strong compression performance, low thermal conductivity, light density, and easy installation. But there are also some issues, such as flammability and susceptibility to aging.


2. Extruded board




Extruded polystyrene board is a new type of insulation material that has advantages over polystyrene board in terms of security, environmental friendliness, and weather resistance. Its thermal conductivity is lower than that of polystyrene board, and it is not easy to absorb water, resulting in a longer service life. But the disadvantage of extruded polystyrene board is its high price.




3. Rock wool board




Rock wool board is an insulation material made from natural rocks and mineral fibers under high temperature and pressure. Rock wool board has the characteristics of high temperature resistance, sound absorption and insulation, fire prevention, etc., and can be recycled with good environmental performance. But its installation is complex and requires sealing treatment.




4. Polyurethane foam




Polyurethane foam has been widely used abroad, but it has not been widely promoted in the domestic market. It has the characteristics of strong insulation performance and fast construction speed, but at the same time, it also has problems such as flammability and low environmental protection indicators.




Overall, the above Shandong exterior wall insulation materials have their own advantages and disadvantages. It is recommended to weigh the actual needs and economic conditions when selecting materials, and choose the insulation material that is suitable for oneself. Meanwhile, during the use and installation of materials, it is necessary to strictly follow the characteristics and requirements of the materials to ensure their service life and effectiveness.
