In the realm of cryogenic insulation, finding materials that offer reliability, cost-effectiveness, and outstanding thermal properties is critical. Expanded perlite stands out as a superior choice for insulating cryogenic and low-temperature containers, including storage tanks and transport vessels. Nordisk Perlite is at the forefront of providing best-in-class expanded perlite for these temperature-sensitive applications, ensuring that you can achieve unparalleled insulation performance, especially for extreme low-temperature conditions.
Why Choose Expanded Perlite for Cryogenic Insulation?
Expanded perlite offers a unique combination of properties that make it ideal for cryogenic insulation:
Low Thermal Conductivity: Perlite insulation exhibits low thermal conductivity, making it highly efficient in minimizing heat transfer at temperatures as low as -180°C and below, crucial for maintaining the integrity of cryogenic substances.
Lightweight and Cost-Effective: With a recommended density range of 45 to 75 kg/m³, expanded perlite is not only lightweight but also cost-effective, offering significant savings in terms of both material and transportation costs.
Non-Combustible and Durable: Perlite is non-combustible, resistant to rot, non-hygroscopic (does not absorb water), and does not settle or degrade over time, ensuring long-lasting insulation performance.
Naturally insulating: As a naturally occurring volcanic glass, perlite is a circular and recyclable material, contributing to your sustainability goals.
