The unbeatable performance of Microtherm® can result in a number of benefits:
• Greatly reduced insulation thickness / volume for equivalent performance.
• Greatly reduced insulation weight.
• Faster installation due to reduced quantity of insulation pieces.
• Savings on outer coverings / casings due to size reduction.
• Reduction in storage of goods prior to installation.
• Reduction in cost of packaging of insulation for delivery.
• Reduction in delivery costs due to reduced volume.
• Cleaner installation with no health hazards.

11. Research & Development - Engineering
Microtherm is the leading developer of high performance thermal insulation solutions.
Our Research & Development team is constantly striving to improve further our insulation material and products.
In our in-house laboratory and testing facilities, innovations are examined and analysed carefully before
industrialisation is started.
The extensive know-how of the R&D group is then integrated with the work of our highly experienced and
qualified engineering team.
In close cooperation with our customers we (co-) develop tailor made insulation solutions.
Measuring Thermal Conductivity ...
Microtherm obtains thermal conductivity measurements by two different procedures:
1. Guarded Hot Plate equipment complying with ISO 8302 and ASTM C 177 standards is used for
all published data. This produces precise data over a wide temperature range (up to a mean
value of 800°C / 1472 °F). Two flat panels are tested and heat flow is measured between a heated
test square and water cooled outer plates.
2. Microtherm in-house testing facilities. Microtherm has designed testing equipment based
on a cylindrical geometry with a central heat source for routine quality control and product
development. This equipment is particularly suitable for measurements at pressures greater
than atmospheric and in gases other than air.
Optimising Density
The thermal conductivity of microporous insulation is influenced by its density. Together with IR radiation,
heat is transferred through the insulation either by gaseous conduction (air pockets), or by solid conduction
(particles). Put simply, the higher the density, the more particles, the higher the thermal conductivity.
Also, the lower the density, the more air pockets, the higher the thermal conductivity. By balancing the interaction
between gaseous and the solid conduction, an optimal thermal conductivity value can found for each of the
Microtherm® grades. Microtherm supplies all products at an optimised density for optimised performance.

13. Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging, usually known as Thermography, allows precise non contact temperature measurement.
It is non-intrusive, non-invasive, and non-destructive and establishes precisely how a structure reacts when exposed
to heat. Microtherm engineers use thermography for validation of their thermal solution designs during performance
testing.

The non-combustibility of Microtherm®
insulation products
Microtherm® insulation meets the requirements of BS476, DIN4102 and UL94V-0 for non-combustibility.
Combustibility of coverings (eg. glass cloth) may be greater than that of the Microtherm® insulation.
Specialised applications may require particular coatings to be applied to the Microtherm® insulation.
Microtherm® insulation products create excellent fire barriers to protect steel, aluminium or composite struc-
tures. Fire performance certificates are available on our website and from our Applications Engineering group.
Microtherm Overstitched Panels have been satisfactorily tested to the European Single Burning Item (SBI) test EN
13823, and have been classified A1 to EN 13501-1:2002.
Microtherm® flexible insulation panels used in marine Passive Fire Protection systems are covered by EU and USCG
certification for non-combustibility of the insulation core, and zero spread of flame for the glass cloth covering
material.

14. Ensuring Stability at maximum operating
temperature
Microtherm® insulation can be used for long periods against hot surfaces at maximum operating temperatures.
Like all insulation materials, a small amount of irreversible lateral shrinkage will occur after sustained exposure to
the maximum rated temperature limit for the material.
Microtherm measures shrinkage according to ASTM C356, BS-EN 1094-6, ISO 2477, and in-house techniques. These
full soak methods in which the material is kept in a high temperature furnace for a period of 12 to 24 hours, and
the dimensional changes measured. These methods are more severe than single-sided shrinkage tests and give a
conservative estimate of maximum service temperature.

15. Cloth coverings
Microtherm use a variety of covering materials for their products dependent on exposure temperature and
conditions of use. These can include materials such as non-woven polyester where temperature resistance is
not required but the product needs to be dust free and, in some instances, flexible without damage.
For most applications Microtherm uses woven E-glass cloth coverings.
The cloth covering ensures cleanliness and lack of dust when installing the Microtherm® products.
However, at exposure temperatures above 600 oC / 1112 oF the fibres of the cloth will begin to stick together, leading
to brittleness and loss of strength on cooling. Some shrinkage may also be observed leading to splits in the cloth.
These effects are more severe at higher temperatures. E-glass cloth will melt at temperatures exceeding 800 oC /
1472 oF. Microtherm offers alternative coverings with higher temperature resistance for special applications. The
main consequence of these thermal changes to the glass cloth is that the strength and handleability of the insula-
tion tends to revert to what it would have been without the glass cloth covering – the insulation performance is
not altered in any way. Since Microtherm® insulation is usually held between metal sheets or refractory materials,
deterioration of the glass cloth is normally not an important issue.
• For even more demanding applications, Microtherm® can be covered in almost any appropriate material.
• For higher temperature exposure, a covering of quartz cloth may be used which is capable of withstanding direct
flame impingement.
• For most mechanically challenging applications we can even supply Microtherm® totally encapsulated in
stainless steel.
17. Super G Hydrophobic Grade
This material is based on silica particles which have been specially treated to render them, and hence the
insulation, water repellent.
The treatment is so effective that Microtherm® Super G Hydrophobic can be totally submerged in water for 60 days
without damage.
During this period it slowly absorbs water, typically 10% by weight. It can be dried and still remain water
resistant. The whole material is waterproof so it can be machined or cut. Microtherm® Super G Hydrophobic is water
repellent for at least one year at 250°C / 482 oF, for one day at 350°C / 662 oF and for one hour at 400°C / 752 oF.
Health and Safety
Microtherm® products are formulated from low hazard materials and during development considerable care has
been taken to ensure that products, when used as recommended, are as safe to handle as practically possible.
Microtherm® insulation products are certified as “fibre free” according to the dangerous Substances Directive
Amendement, 97/69/EC.
Further information on current occupational exposure limits and control measures/precautions required to
minimise personal exposure, for all grades of Microtherm®, is provided in our Material Safety Data Sheets. All MSDS
documents are available as downloads from our website www.microthermgroup.com.
