ThermaQ heating system is the most advanced far-infrared

planar heating element made of insulated and flame-retardant

base film applied with carbon heating element, thin-coated with

active carbon, absorbent for contaminants and laminated with

PET film after making electrodes with copper bus bar.

Unlike a normal heater, the carbon heating element applied all

over the film emits far infrared radiant heat good for the health

uniformly so that you can feel warmth like sunlight.

Since the exterior material for film heater is a special polyester

fabrics with a special waterproofing treatment not to contact the

air, it is a future-oriented heater for wall, ceiling or floor heating

which can be used almost semi-permanently.

The performance of heating system depends on dispersion

technology of nano particles by adhesion and resistance of carbon particles, silver particles and others.

ThermaQ Heating System

®

The planar heating element emits a radiant heat generated from electric energy

conducted and absorbed by wide surface of thin film itself; i.e. a directly and

without process of convective or conductive momentarily transferred heating method

heat transfer,

The Advantages of Planar Heating Element

No loss of heat,

Time not required for maintaining heating

Obtaining Desirable temperature through a digital temperature

controller

Heating surface area is 5 to 10 times bigger than by conventional

heaters, as a result the heat distributes evenly in all directions

Simplicity in installation

Low load on the building

Easiness in maintenance

Structure

Safeness

® Structure

ThermaQ Heating System is

produced by accurate (under 1 micron)

printing technology by coating carbon on

PET film to radiate heat.

The film is so strong that you can not

cut it without scissors because the

material was heat-treated over 150

Steady temperature range and

resistance variation

• Coating high density carbon particle

• Cutting edge doping technology for

uniformly printed surface

• Continuous development of special

equipment for heating system

• World class film with the character of

insulation and anti-flame

• Preventing spark on carbon surface by

specialized design

• Special waterproof treatment

• Laminated insulation film

®The System

1. Carbon Paste, Heating part of

ThermaQ HEATING System

Carbon Black is a material obtained from

carbon © like diamond as a main ingredient

and applied to automobile, ink or cosmetics.

It is called carbon fiber to do heat treatment

at 1,000-3,000 and graphite fiber to do

heat treatment at more than 2,500 through

manufacturing process. Graphite is widely

used as a material for electric heating

element because of its high resistance to

heat, its low coefficient of resistance and

excellent thermal conductivity and electrical

conductivity.

Depending on mixing ratio of carbon and

graphite in carbon strip, the part of heat

generation in heating, adhesion, resistance,

etc can be adjusted. (It is to use properties

of round molecular structure of carbon and

tabular structure of graphite.)

®ThermaQ Heating Component Characteristics

If resistance of silver paste, the planar heating element, is high, it

may cause sparks and problem in safety. The lower resistance of

conductor , the higher electrical efficiency.

2. Silver Paste, Conduction part

of ThermaQ Heating System

Silver paste, a conductive pasting

material, is a low temperature

type of conductive paste applied

to planar heating element, which

has excellent property for screen

printing, high conductivity,

excellent flexibility and excellent

adhesion to P.E.T with Laminex.

Test of resistance results in less

than 0.1Ω.

®ThermaQ Heating Component Characteristics

Adhesion, Insulation and flame-retardancy, No shrinkage

®ThermaQ Heating Component Characteristics

Characteristics of P.E.T Film

Excellent electric or electro thermal wire widely used as an

electric insulation for power generator, transformer, etc.

Applied to heat sensitive areas such as film, coating, etc

because of its low thermal shrinkage (Shrinkage rate +/-2% at

placement for 20 minutes at 150)

High strength and elasticity

Excellent durability against chemical reaction

UV-protective effect

Little ingredients hazardous to environment at incineration

5. E.V.A, E.E.A, heat resistant adhesives for ThermaQ Heating System

Adhesives for laminating in process of manufacturing heating film are mainly applied with E.V.A

(Ethylene-vinylacetate) and E.E.A (Ethylene-Ethylacylate).

Adhesion of laminating part is very important for heating film to prevent from moisture

penetration, thermal resistance and formation of air layer in the film.

®Durability TEST for ThermaQ Heating Film (Ⅱ)

Operate ThermaQ Heating elements for 20

minutes and keep film surface temperature

rapidly up to film surface temperature 0.

Repeat the same procedure for 24 hours and

then check cracks on the surface of carbon
