To learn the whole truth about the possibilities of thermal insulation, and at the same time ZhEKov, it is possible from the old women sitting at the entrance of the house. We confidently declare that the time "h" for secret and carefully concealed domestic developments, regarding innovative heat-insulating materials, has already come. Down with impractical heat insulators and obsolete technology! Ahead is a bright era of liquid heat-insulating materials.

Liquid insulation properties
Currently, an important issue, legalized by decisions on energy conservation and discussed at a high level, is the thermal insulation of a new generation.
The appearance of liquid thermal insulation in the market is due to the development of THERMO SHIELD from Germany, the American Thermal-Coat and a number of domestic manufacturers. Leading European countries have long (more than 20 years) use material for painting the outer fuel tank Space Shuttle Columbia, as well as for the external coating of bridges and pipelines.
The borrowed technology of creating a liquid ultra-thin thermal insulation by the type of a matrix consisting of ceramic and silicone microspheres has been successfully introduced into production. The purpose of the liquid heat insulation is oriented, naturally, to the thermal insulation of parts of the house or structure in particular.
Among the first swallows of domestic nanoscale, which is a composition of synthetic rubber and acrylic polymers - Korund, AstraTech, Bronya and Keramoizol. Prove that thermal insulation is simple and fast, we will try using the example of liquid thermal insulation re therm, without resorting to attempts at industrial espionage.
Advantages of liquid thermal insulation
To understand the advantages of thermal insulation properties, let's turn to the development of THERMO SHIELD. By the way, Shield - means "shield", so "simple white paint" is something more, preventing heat transfer to the environment.
What is the main weapon or sword of liquid heat insulation?
heat insulation properties re therm
first acquaintance with thermal insulation re therm
Liquid thermal insulation re therm externally is a paint consisting of a composition of evacuated microspheres.
The principle of interaction of microspheres is based on ballistic properties in the process of polymerization of ceramic microspheres with a diameter of 10 to 30 μm with a thermal conductivity coefficient of 0.00083 W / mS and silicone diameters ranging from 50-80 μm.
After polymerization, a strong film layer with a thickness of up to 1.5 mm is formed during the application, which ensures the return of heat.
The applied thermal insulation coating re therm has a high elasticity and strength, which does not require additional protective coating.
features and Benefits
Advantageous characteristics and properties of the coating are:
- complete absence of shrinkage due to polymer base
- as a consequence, water resistance and vapor tightness
- environmental friendliness of the material before and after application.
Naturally, qualitative characteristics are supported by convenience and practicality of application at warming by liquid heat insulation. Thermal insulation can be used in the extended temperature regime from minus 60 ° C to plus 250 ° C, allowing paint to be applied without stopping systems or aggregates.
Thermal insulation RE-THERM is a light and flexible material that does not create weighting for any insulating structures. We will suggest that the mass of the coating with a thickness of 1 mm is 0.38-0.40 kg per 1 m2.
sphere of application
According to the recommendations stated by the manufacturer, it is possible to use and apply thermal insulation:
- when freezing balconies, walls and ceilings
- to eliminate or reduce the amount of condensate
- at warming of cellars, socles and technical floors.
Thus, all favorable conditions and prerequisites are formed for the application of liquid heat insulation. Therefore, the paint, which acts as a thermal barrier, is recommended to be used for external and internal use (insulation of slopes, liquid insulation of facades, panel joints and roofing cloths). The breadth of the range of use of thermal insulation is indicated by modifications of the model range: Standard, Inhibitor, Vertical, Antifreeze and Frost.
Thermal insulation Standard It is designed as a protective covering of walls, slopes, roofs, pipelines and general air ducts.
Heat-insulating paint Inhibitor protects metal surfaces when corrosion occurs.
Thermal insulation liquid Vertical can be applied to wall, facade and roof structures of a vertical spatial arrangement.
Paint Antifreeze it is possible to use at minus temperatures, and thermal insulation Frost use for structures exposed to significant temperatures.

But the story of the possibilities of liquid thermal insulation would not be complete, if not to stipulate the simplicity of the manual preparation of the working base and application of the material.
Application of liquid thermal insulation
surface and mortar preparation
Preparatory measures before applying thermal insulation of any product modification include mechanical cleaning of the surface from contamination, delamination of fragments and degreasing.
Depending on the condition of the surface (hygroscopic and crystalline surfaces), priming is carried out using silicone or acrylic (winter) paint. Wooden surfaces are covered with a layer of thermal insulation without preliminary preparation. Priming of the surface is carried out 2-3 times, including intermediate drying for 2 hours.
The finished material from the manufacturer before the beginning of the application is mixed using a low-speed electric drill with a nozzle to form a dense homogeneous mass. The thermal insulation solution can be poured into the storage container using a metal woven mesh filter with a cell diameter of 2-3 mm in the light.
deposition
Apply a solution of thermal insulation using a traditional brush or roller. At the same time, the time and the drying speed of the insulating layer are minimal, almost like the starting Colombia, ahead of competitors, space and time.
