1. Welcome the revolutionizing era of Glass wool fiber which
provides superior insulation techniques U.P. Twiga Fiberglass
Limited Company
2. Glass Wool Insulation in India is one of the very widely
used because of its thermal and acoustic properties, light weight
architecture and design, high tensile strength and exceptional
resilience. This product is popular because of its high-energy
conservation and sound insulation.
3. It is widely used in the process industries, building &
air conditioning. Lately, Glass Wool Insulation in India has become
a highly sought after insulation technique as the producers offer
the product at very competitive prices without compromising on its
reliability and durability. Clients requirements are always kept in
mind while designing and manufacturing these fibers. Since India
experiences a variety of climatic seasons ranging from severe heat
in the south and harsh cold in the northern hilly areas, glass wool
insulation can come in very handy.
4. Glass wool consists of fine, long, inorganic fibers bonded
together by a high temperature binder. We all know that gases are
poor conductors of heat, which means that they can made good
insulators. They are disrupted into small cells which cannot
effectively transfer heat by natural convection.
5. Thus they act as fine insulators. Glass wool fibers (~6-7
microns in diameter) trap millions of tiny air -pockets in it
thereby creating excellent thermal and acoustic insulation. The
manufacturing process involves natural sand and recycled glass
mixed at 1450 deg.
6. The cohesion and mechanical strength is obtained by the
presence of a binder that cements the fibers together. Ideally, a
drop of bonder is placed at each fiber intersection. This fiber mat
is then heated to around 200 C to polymerize the resin and is then
rolled between two rollers which flattens it, following which it
gains strength and stability.
7. The final stage involves cutting the wool and packing it in
rolls or panels under very high pressure before palletizing the
finished product in order to facilitate transport and storage.
Glass wool can be a loose fill material, blown into attics, or,
together with an active binder sprayed on the underside of
structures, sheets and panels that can be used to insulate flat
surfaces such as cavity wall insulation, ceiling tiles, curtain
walls as well as ducting.
8. It is also used to insulate piping systems on the roof and
in the basement and for soundproofing.
