Rock wool insulation board is made from various raw materials such as basalt and natural ore, which has high-quality thermal resistance, insulation, acoustic insulation performance, and advantages such as weather resistance, acid and alkali resistance, good elasticity, impact resistance, and flame resistance. Rock wool insulation board is mainly used in the industrial and construction fields, such as electricity, urban heating and exhaust pipelines, collectors, special pipelines, elevators, investment molds, HVAC, laundry rooms, central air conditioning systems, and thermal insulation and sound insulation of light buildings.
Advantages of rock wool board
Durability
Thermal insulation rock wool board is made of basalt and dolomite as the main raw materials, made of high temperature melting, it is not surprising that it has a long service life. In addition, the material does not easily flow and settle, which means that its R-value remains constant over time.
Fire safety
Because of the way it is manufactured, thermal insulation rockwool boards have incredible heat resistance. It is non-combustible, the maximum use temperature ≥700 ℃, melting point ≥1000 ℃. Not only will it not catch fire, the thermal insulation rock wool board will not release a lot of smoke or toxic gases when in contact with flames and high temperatures.
Sound insulation
Insulated rock wool boards are perfect for bedrooms, media rooms, and any other place in the house that needs noise reduction. This insulation slows down (and captures) sound waves as they pass through. As such, it is a popular insulation and sound absorbing material for multifamily and single family homes located in noisy areas. The high density of the thermal insulation rock wool board makes it very effective in noise reduction.
Easy to install
As an insulation material, insulation rockwool board is particularly dense and hard, making it easier to install than many other types of insulation material. The higher rigidity of this material ensures that it can be cut more precisely, making it possible to trim around electrical outlets and other obstructions with great precision.
Rockwool material also offers great flexibility in terms of use and installation. For example, it can be purchased in the form of rock wool roll felt, rock wool tube shell and rock wool board, and can be cut into various shapes and sizes according to needs.
