La description

Modern market of heat insulating materials both in Russia and abroad is referred to as the most dynamically developing, open for innovations and accessible for new technologies. Materials and developments that were considered know-how just a few years ago are currently classified in the category of standard and conventional ones increasing the range of high-tech and quality heat insulates.  Such materials include the so-called "liquid insulation".  

In ***8 established AKTERM (Trade Mark) heat insulating paint, which is currently successfully applied at various facilities: from ironworks, fuel and energy complex, to residential construction, and even in shipbuilding.  AKTERM paint is manufactured in Russia according to the original technology using only import content.

Unique heat insulation developed by AKTERM Company overweighs all known analogues by its thermo physical and operational characteristics.  Own modern production facilities, high quality raw materials from the leaders of chemical industry, qualified personnel, leading production volumes - all of that allows to offer a product of uncompromising quality and exclusive prices to the customers. 

AKTERM consists of high quality acrylic binder, ceramic thin-walled microspheres with expanded air. The material also contains special additives, which prevent formation of fungi in conditions of high humidity on the concrete surfaces; make the material light, flexible, expandable, with excellent adhesion to coated surfaces. In terms of consistence and properties, AKTERM is an ordinary paint of white colour, which can be applied on any surface using roller, brush or sprayer. Consumption rate for exterior painting is 1 litre per 1 m2 .  

After drying, elastic heat insulating coating is formed, this has unique heat insulating properties comparing to conventional insulates.  For instance, the layer of 1mm of heat insulating paint replaces 5 cm of rockwool insulant. The uniqueness of insulating properties is a result of intensive molecular action of expanded air,  located in hollow spheres. The service life of heat insulation under normal operation is *0 years minimum.

Distinctive features and noveltyof heat insulating paint

• it has unique heat insulating features;

• ultrathin (thickness of one process layer — 0.*4 cm);

• light weight;

• manufactured of high quality components;

• heat stability — to + **0 С (Akterm-Volcano up to ***0C);                                                                               

• applicable on the running facilities without stopping the operating cycle at the temperatures from *5С to ***0С;

• reduces heat transfer (no overheated areas, updraft effect);

• good adhesion to all surfaces;

• reduces/removes condensation without a risk of rust formation;

• non-toxic, environmentally friendly;

• 1 mm thick coating replaces 5 cm of rockwool insulant;

• applicable on non-standard surfaces (valves, odd-shaped facades).

Purpose and application area.

AKTERM heat insulating paint is designed for production of coatings on concrete, brick, plastic, metal and wooden surfaces of any shape, has heat insulating properties.

It can be used:

• for heat insulation of steam and hot water pipes, water heating equipment of boiler rooms;

• for reduction of heat losses during capital construction and during reconstruction of public and industrial buildings;

• for protection of the walls of residential premises from frost penetration, UV radiation;

• for reduction of cost for cooling and prevention of overheating of refrigerators and freezers;

• for prevention of corrosion and condensate formation on the surface of steel profiled structures.

Advantages

The advantage of AKTERM heat insulating paint is continuous access for inspection of insulated surface, possibility of work in the premises without additional ventilation (since it can be solved with water), retardant for flame and smoke. Liquid heat insulation saves the usable area of the premise due to reduction of insulation layer thickness. Its application allows reduction of the structures weight, reduction of building materials consumption, improvement of comfort in residential premises, reduction of energy consumption for heating or air conditioning of the building.

Application

AKTERM heat insulating paint should be applied with a brush, roller or sprayer (air and airless). Thickness of one process layer is not more than 0.4 mm. Consumption rate for one-layer coating is 1 litre per 1m2. Labour intensity is comparable to the labour intensity of painting.

Operating experience

AKTERM liquid heat insulating material of new generation has already proved its reliability as a tool for heat insulation and corrosion protection under various atmospheric conditions. It has passed the tests for compliance with the standards used at the largest enterprises of Russia, which obtained considerable saving of heat, energy and money:
