Typical Application fields: Cryogenic & Cold Temperatures
The superior properties of HUAYUE® foam glass insulation make it ideal for cryogenic systems such as Liquefied Natural Gas.
Suitable for:
- Low temperature piping and equipment
- Liquid nitrogen, helium and oxygen pipes
- LNG piping and equipment
- Ethylene piping and equipment
- Hydrocarbon fire resistance at low temperature
Why HUAYUE® Foam Glass Insulation Is Ideal For Industrial Cryogenic And Cold Application?
HUAYUE® foam cellular glass insulation:
- expands and contracts at a very similar rate to steel, avoiding cracks and open joints;
- is 100% impermeable and as such avoids moisture ingress when vapour retarders fail;
- is fire safe, which is critical in the presence of hydrocarbon products;
- has a high compressive strength, making it easier to perform mechanical maintenance without damage;
- has an insulation value that stands the test of time and performs for decades.
In addition, the HUAYUE® insulation system is surprisingly competitive, requiring only two layers in many cases where other insulation materials need three or more layers to perform adequatly. As a result, less joint sealant and handling would be required.
In systems operating down to -50°C (-58°F), HUAYUE® insulation can be applied in a single layer, thus avoiding the costly double layering required with alternative systems.
