How to choose pipe insulation materials?
2021-07-30

In recent years, people have begun to respect the life concept of health, comfort, ecology and energy saving. Therefore, comfortable home systems have gradually entered ordinary families, such as home central air conditioning system, central heating system, central fresh air system, central water treatment system, central hot water system, solar energy and air energy.


The effective operation of these comfortable home systems is inseparable from the thermal insulation effect of rubber and plastic insulation materials on pipes. Rubber and plastic insulation materials are one of the popular air conditioning pipe insulation materials on the market. With excellent thermal insulation performance, it can effectively ensure the efficient and stable operation of central air conditioning. Then the question arises, the quality of pipe insulation materials on the market is uneven, how to choose?


1. Look at the surface


Whether it is rubber or plastic insulation pipe material or sheet, only smooth and shiny rubber and plastic insulation materials can be called high-end rubber and plastic insulation materials, and the logo printed on the surface is clearly visible and flawless. Whether the rubber and plastic insulation materials are too hard, this can also be reflected. That is, cut the surface of the material hard with your fingers. If the surface "moves without moving" without any damage, it can be called high grade; the cutting is broken, and its quality can be called quality. I can imagine it naturally.


2. Look at the cross section


High-quality rubber and plastic insulation materials must be processed with efficient foaming. The foam pores are fine and evenly distributed. The cross section of the material can be observed with the naked eye. The cross-section bubbles are sparse, unevenly distributed, and there are obvious indentations after pressing, indicating that the quality is unqualified.


3. Look at the turning point


There are some cheap and inferior rubber insulation materials on the market. When you pull them gently with your hands, they are easily torn, not to mention that they will break after twisting. High-quality rubber pipe plastic insulation materials need to have a hard base. When you hold it in your hand, you will feel good elasticity and flexibility. You can twist it three or four times without tearing. It can be quickly restored after releasing your hand.


4. Look at the burning


Fire resistance is another important basic property of rubber and plastic insulation rubber insulation pipe materials. The rubber and plastic insulation materials currently used in the market are fireproof. After burning with fire, there are no impurities, and the fire source can be removed at any time during the burning process. The flame retardant effect is obvious, which is conducive to fire prevention. Environmental protection has become a basic requirement for the selection of decorative materials and rubber and plastic insulation materials. High-quality rubber rubber insulation materials not only do not contain formaldehyde, but also do not release formaldehyde, and do not contain harmful impurities such as fiber and dust, so that the indoor environment is always in a safe and clean state.


In short, the selection of high-quality rubber insulation pipe materials depends not only on the surface, cross-section, flexibility and fire resistance, but also on water resistance, fire resistance and service life. Combined with the above characteristics, I believe you can choose high-quality rubber insulation pipe materials to make home decoration more efficient, energy-saving, safer and more comfortable.
