Mineral Wool Board |
TaoFibre Block-19 is a high temperature insulation board, which is made from mineral fiber
and organic binder. This board is characteristic of excellent insulation efficiency and good
strength for various high temperature applications, such as precipitators, dryers, ducts and
breeching, utility boilers, furnaces, kilns, etc. The material is ideal for refractory backup
insulation behind insulating firebrick and other refractory linings. There could be smoke
generated when the binder in the fiber board is burnt above approximately 500°F but the
smoke will disperse soon and once for all. To limit or avoid such smoke generation in initial
start-up performance, heat rise should be controlled at about 20°F per minute to allow the
binder to dissipate with moderate temperature increase. The ignition loss of binder in the first
startup operation will not adversely affect the insulation value. TaoFibre Block-19 can be used
at different service temperatures up to a maximum of 1900°F on the hot surface of the
enclosed panel. This board is not to be subjected to direct touch with flame as a hot face
refractory material.
Typical Applications:
TaoFibre Block-19 mineral wool board can be used to insulate plant equipment such as boilers,
furnaces, ovens, ducts, precipitators, tanks and other mechanical equipment operating at
continuous service temperatures up to 1900°F.
