Rubber insulation board is a widely used material in the fields of building and industrial insulation, and its temperature resistance is a key indicator.
1、 Temperature resistance range of rubber insulation board
Generally speaking, rubber insulation boards have a wide temperature resistance range. Ordinary rubber insulation boards can withstand temperatures ranging from -40 ℃ to 105 ℃. This conventional temperature tolerance range makes it suitable for most ordinary building environments, such as heating insulation in residential homes. The water temperature here usually does not exceed 100 ℃. In the cold winter, even if the outdoor temperature reaches -40 ℃, it can still function normally as insulation.
2、 High temperature rubber insulation board
When it comes to special industrial environments or high-temperature equipment, high-temperature rubber insulation boards are needed. The temperature resistance of this insulation board can reach 120 ℃ or even higher. For example, in the insulation of steam pipelines in some chemical enterprises, the steam temperature is often above 100 ℃. If ordinary rubber insulation boards are used, performance degradation such as deformation and aging may occur due to prolonged exposure to high temperature environments. Rubber insulation boards with a temperature resistance of over 120 ℃ can work stably, effectively reducing heat loss and improving energy utilization efficiency.
3、 Matching temperature resistance with usage scenarios
However, higher temperature resistance does not necessarily mean better. When choosing the temperature resistance of rubber insulation board, it is necessary to consider the actual usage scenario. If it is in ordinary civil buildings, choosing rubber insulation boards with temperature resistance ranging from -40 ℃ to 105 ℃ is already sufficient to meet the demand, and from a cost perspective, it is also more economical. But if it is an industrial site with high temperature and pressure, such as power plants, refineries, etc., higher temperature resistant products must be used.
4、 Factors affecting temperature resistance performance
The temperature resistance of rubber insulation board is influenced by various factors. The quality of raw materials is crucial, as high-quality rubber materials themselves have better thermal stability and temperature resistance. The production process also has an impact on temperature resistance, such as the degree of mixing and extrusion process during the production process, which can affect the microstructure inside the insulation board and thus affect its temperature resistance ability.
In short, the temperature resistance of rubber insulation boards should be selected according to specific usage scenarios, taking into account multiple factors such as cost and performance while meeting requirements.
