Engineering ToolBox > Calcium Silicate Insulation

Thermal conductivity - temperature and k-values

Non-asbestos Calcium Silicate insulation board and pipe insulation feature with light weight, low thermal conductivity, high temperature and chemical resistance.

Calcium Silicate is rigid, high density material used for high temperature applications ranging 250^oF (121^oC) - 1000^oF (540^oC).

The relation between temperature and thermal conductivity is indicated in the diagram below:

• compressive strengths are good
• noncombustible

 

• T(^oC) = 5/9[T(^oF) - 32]
