Shandong exterior wall insulation materials refer to materials used to change the insulation performance of buildings and reduce energy consumption. In buildings, the exterior wall is the protective layer of the building and is also a place that is easily affected by the external environment. The insulation effect of the exterior wall plays a vital role in energy conservation and use effect. The use of suitable exterior wall insulation materials can reduce the cost of structural systems and equipment components, slow down the urban heat island phenomenon, and improve the living environment and security.


At present, the flowing Shandong insulation materials on the market include polystyrene foam boards, extruded polystyrene foam boards, rock wool boards, polyurethane foam boards, etc. Among them, polystyrene foam boards are insulation materials with many advantages. On the one hand, polystyrene foam boards have the advantages of uniform thickness, good insulation performance, and fire resistance. On the other hand, the construction of polystyrene foam boards is also relatively simple, and they can be cut, bent and bent at will. Moreover, the price is low and the cost performance is high. Therefore, it has been widely used and promoted in building insulation.


However, polystyrene materials also have certain disadvantages. First of all, polystyrene foam boards are flammable and have high fire protection requirements. Secondly, the consolidation effect of polystyrene foam board is easily affected by external forces and prone to cracking. Thirdly, the low-temperature compression resistance of polystyrene foam board is poor, and it is easily affected by temperature changes and physical forces. Then, polystyrene foam board cannot be directly used for exterior wall insulation materials, and it is necessary to lay anti-infiltration layers and protective layers.


Because of the shortcomings of polystyrene foam board, other types of insulation materials have gradually emerged. For example, extruded polystyrene foam board is manufactured by extrusion process, which has the characteristics of uniform density, good fire resistance and strong waterproofness. Rock wool board uses rock as raw material, which is processed into fiber after high-temperature melting. The thermal insulation performance, fire resistance and low-temperature compression resistance of rock wool board are very good. Polyurethane foam board has the advantages of convenient construction, excellent thermal insulation performance, and will be widely used and promoted in the future.


When choosing Shandong exterior wall insulation materials, in addition to some of the factors mentioned above, it is also necessary to consider the specific construction area, the risk of the building and other factors. Therefore, it is recommended that necessary investigations and analyses be conducted to better select suitable insulation materials.


In short, the applicability and superiority of Shandong exterior wall insulation materials play a vital role in environmental protection and energy conservation. It is necessary to fully consider factors such as thermal insulation performance, fire resistance, and construction convenience when choosing, and then choose suitable insulation materials.
