How To Choose Insulation Materials? | One Table To Understand Thermal Conductivity, Temperature Resistance And Price 2026-03-19
Choosing the wrong insulation material causes great economic losses. For example, a 30% thermal conductivity discrepancy in rock wool led to an extra 80,000 RMB annual energy loss for a 300-meter pipeline. This article emphasizes thermal conductivity, operating temperature and price are the three core parameters for selection. It briefly covers seven common insulation materials, focusing on aerogel—a "super insulation material" with ultra-low thermal conductivity and long-term benefits despite high initial costs, due to space and weight savings. Key tips: check thermal conductivity reports, confirm fire resistance and ensure moisture protection. Prioritize full life-cycle costs over initial investment to avoid losses.
