Insulation properties

The most interesting of several possible application areas for Quartzene® is insulation. Quartzene® has excellent insulation properties and can resist temperatures up to 650°C due to the material’s porosity. Even though exposed to high temperatures the material will never burn. This means that Quartzene® is perfectly suitable for drastically improving the insulation properties of most of the existing insulation materials on the market.
Double the thermal efficiency

For the end customer a Quartzene® based insulation panel could roughly either double its thermal efficiency with the same volume or reduce the material to half the volume with the same thermal efficiency. This translates directly into substantial increases in square footage or energy savings for the end customer. For those reasons, Svenska Aerogel AB’s aim is for Quartzene® based products to penetrate and replace mass-market insulation at a steady pace.

Product development

Svenska Aerogel AB’s Quartzene® is a fine and porous silica-based powder. To handle the powder and use its superb insulation capacity it has to be made into a more manageable form, such as a board or a blanket. In order for this to happen, a form or a binding agent is needed. As of today we are offering our services to industrial partners. In collaboration we research and develop within several different insulation application areas such as mineral wools, plastic foams and vacuum insulation panels. The objective is to create a composite material and utilize the superb insulation capacity of Quartzene® to make a thinner and more efficient insulation material than the commercial ones existing today.
