Cryogenic Perlite -Naturally Occurring Siliceous
Perlite is a naturally occurring siliceous volcanic rock containing two to six per cent combined water. When the crude rock is crushed and heated above 1600° F ( 871° C) , the combined water vaporizes and the perlite expands four to twenty times its original volume. This expansion process creates countless cells in the glassy particles, which account for the excellent thermal conductivity of expanded perlite.
- Perlite insulation exhibits low thermal conductivity and has excellent thermal properties.
- Does not shrink, swell, warp or slump.
- Low cost, easy to handle and install.
- Non-combustible, meeting fire regulations and therefore lowers insurance rates.
- Inorganic material that is why it is vermin and rot resistant.
- As a result of its closed cell structure, the material does not retain moisture.
- PORTABLE PERLITE PLANTS
- CRYOGENIC : Live Top-ups
- TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
- PROJECTS EXECUTED
- CERTIFICATES
Perlite loose fill insulation provides dependable results at temperatures ranging from -452°F to + 2000 ° F (-269 °C to +1093 °C).
It is because of these unique properties that Perlite has found wide acceptance in the insulation of cryogenic and low temperature storage tanks, cold boxes, shipping containers and food processing facilities. In addition to its thermal properties, Perlite is relatively low in cost, easy to handle and non-flammable.
