Glass wool is a plate-like insulation material formed by fusing broken glass, quartz sand, dolomite, soda ash, borax and other raw materials into glass, then fibrosis it, and pressing it with special thermosetting adhesives. Glass wool products have good performance in fire resistance, flame retardancy, thermal insulation, energy conservation, and sound insulation and noise reduction. Today, we will explain in detail the main uses of glass wool products.

1. In terms of architecture

Glass wool and its products have been widely used as excellent insulation materials in buildings. Glass wool material can greatly reduce the weight of buildings and save a lot of fuel, playing an increasingly important role in industrial and residential buildings.

Glass wool is mainly used as a material for building components, double layered walls, and gaps in floor slabs to provide insulation and sound insulation; Glass wool felt is used for building components such as partition walls, columns, sloping roofs, and patterned floors. It is the best insulation and sound-absorbing material and can also provide insulation. Glass wool pads and glass wool boards are widely used in walls, ceilings, floors, roofs, and other components.

In summary, glass wool and its products can be used as insulation and sound insulation materials in at least ten parts of each building, especially in multi story buildings such as pavilions, auditoriums, clubs, cinemas, modern residential buildings, and other buildings that require good insulation and sound insulation performance. High performance glass wool products are often used in many places.

2. In terms of transportation vehicles

Transportation vehicles such as airplanes, automobiles, and ships also use glass wool and its products as insulation materials. The engine, waste heat pipes, and insulation and sound insulation inside the cabin of the aircraft are all made of products such as super tough cotton, high-temperature cotton felt, and glass wool board.

3. In terms of refrigeration

As a thermal insulation material, glass wool products have been widely used in refrigerated trucks, and are also used in small quantities, especially in refrigerators and cold storage areas.

4. In terms of power chemical investment and pipeline

The application of glass wool products is also increasing in power, chemical, metallurgical, petroleum, and other industrial engineering. In these projects, boilers and cooling systems use a large number of products such as glass wool boards to replace diatomaceous earth and asbestos earth as insulation materials for thermal insulation and prevention of condensation and freezing. This not only has good effects, but also is easy to install and has a long service life.

Using glass wool products as insulation layers on pipelines not only serves as thermal insulation, but also serves as moisture-proof and anti-corrosion. For example, in the past, diatomaceous earth was mostly used for insulation and moisture-proof of oil pipelines. Construction was very complex, requiring a layer of wire mesh, a layer of oil felt, a layer of cement, and two layers of asphalt. The cost was high, but the insulation efficiency was not ideal. Now, using glass wool boards is not only convenient and economical, but also has good insulation and thermal insulation effects.

The above is a detailed introduction to the main properties and uses of glass wool, hoping to be helpful to you.
