Isoloyd
Nilflame, like other urethane foam insulants, has low thermal conductivity.
Unlike the others , though, it also has a high fire resistance rating .It achieves
Class1 surface spread of flame rating-the best classification available-when tested
to BS 476(Part 7, 1971).

EASE
OF APPLICATION Resistant to almost all solvents, Isoloyd Nilflame
is compatible with cold applied adhesives, sealants and vapour-barrier mastics.
Isoloyd Nilflame is available in boards, pipe sections, radiused bevelled lags,
with or without factory-laminated facings. |

EXTREME-TEMPERATURE PERFORMANCE |
Isoloyd Nilflame is the only 'CFC FREE' product, designed within the guidelines
of the montreal protocol, 1987, for the protection of the ozone layer.
| BETTER
COST-EFFECTIVENESS | | With
Isoloyd Nilflame, insulation thickness can be reduced by 50% compared with cork,
44% compared with expanded polystyrene or fiberglass. It exposes lower surface
area, reducing area or expensive vapour barrier and outer cladding per running
meter of piping. So insulation parameters can be upgraded without increasing pipe
rack spacing. | | Unlike
most thermoplastics, Isoloyd Nilflame has low smoke emission, And will not melt
or drip in a fire. Being a rigid polyisocyanurate foam, it also has a higher hot
surface performance of 150°C, compare with only 110°C of normal polyurethane
foam. This makes it ideal for use directly over steam or electrical tracing. Its
fire classification meets even the stringent requirements of the British Board
of Trade for shipboard insulation as per BS 5608, the Indian navy; and those of
the US Bureau of Mines. |
