Thermal Insulation with Entangled Particulate Units having Non-Integer Dimensionality

Номер: US20140042355A1
Принадлежит: MINGSULATE LLC

A synthetic insulation material that rivals and surpasses down in performance without suffering degradation in insulating power over time. The material is an aggregate of particulate units that have a fractal-like geometric configuration. The geometric configuration includes non-integer dimensionality that promotes physical entanglements of the particulate units. The physical entanglements impart a high frictional resistance to slippage of the particulate units to maintain loft over time by inhibiting the settling of particulate units upon compression. The geometric configuration further includes aspects of self-similarity. The particulate units are formed from a material that efficiently scatters thermal radiation. The combination of high loft and efficient scattering of thermal radiation minimizes heat loss resulting from conduction and radiation, leads to a superior material for thermal insulation, has excellent health characteristics for human and the environment, and exhibits excellent long term life cycle performance.

HASIB is a much better heat insulator and its use can reduce the transmission of heat by conduction, convection and radiation. The use of HASIB for heat insulation can save energy and bring down the cost of heating in winter and cooling in summer. HASIB is also a better sound insulator since sound cannot travel through the vacuum inside it. HASIB can be used in the form of HASIB-wrap which can be made by gluing them between two sheets of plastic. HASIBs can also be embedded in the drywall used for the construction of houses to make the drywall a much better heat and sound insulator. 1.
