Insulation material TEMAX

"TEMAX" is a wordwide protected Trademark and is being produced in our own production faccilities


What is the Temax insulation?

Temax is a high quality insulation material which is flexibel and produced in a composition of multiple layers so it functions on cavity wall insulation techniques. Together with these multiple layers, reflection layers are added so the combination results in a very high insulation quality. The Temax insulation has a very light weight, is easy to use and can be cut to the wanted sizes. The Temax insulation is water resistant and leaves no condensation, even with very extreme temperatures. The Temax insulation can be tailor made according insulation quality or thickness, dimensions or specified wishes.

.
Ecological characteristics

As the Temax4000 is mostly used as a one-way-packaging, the material proportions have been developed and produced in such a way, that the base materials and needed thermal capacity per current meter, are adjusted to complement each other. This explains the reason why the material is rather vulnerable against extreme frictions or penetrations. The films undergo also a special treatment, so that they are vulnerable to UV-radiation. As a result the Temax foils are biological degradable after a couple of years of exposure to sunlight. Temax4000 is also 100% recyclable so no special waste flow or waste management is needed in the disposal of the foils after usage

.
Insulation specifications

The largest heat transfers between spaces with a different temperature occur due to three aspects: UV-radiation, conduction and convection. If an insulator wants to have a high insulation quality, the material must offer resistance against these three aspects:

- UV-radiation = 75% of heat transfer
- Conduction = heat transfer through the material
- Convection = heat transfer through air current or air flow

1. Temax4000 versus UV radiation

To offer resistance against the most important element of the warmth transfer, UV radiation, a special reflective film was developed, which has a reflecting capacity of 98%. On this special reflection film the reflection takes place on both sides of the film. Effective reflection can only happen when the reflective film is not in direct contact with an outer material or the product that is being packed. To protect against the possible reflection blockades by direct contact,  the Temax 4000 insulation has bubble foils on the inside and outside that keep an ideal distance between the packed products (or outer material) and the reflection film. This results in a maximum reflection capacity.

.
2. Temax4000 versus Conduction

Conduction is heat transfer through the material which depends on the raw material composition of the material in itself. Therefore for reducing the conduction a material is chosen with a lambda value as low as possible for decreasing the temperature flow in each material layer. The Temax 4000 is built of 14 layers; these 14 layers are separately put on each other and not fixed to each other. Air between these layers becomes an insulator and also a separator of heat transfer between the several layers. These layers are put on a specific order and direction on each other for reducing enormous the surface contact between the upper and the lower layers, whereby heat transfer between these layers are reduced.

.
3. Temax4000 versus convection

Convection is heat transfer by air current. Warmth rises and cold falls whereby heat transfer arises on the lower and upper layers. This is reduced by air which is captured in the individual bubbles of the bubble film. These individual bubble dimensions are precisely produced so that each bubble has a optimal internal air flow and circulation. All air bubbles on the layers or films are produced with a certain gap for avoiding heat transfer between the several air bubbles. Hereby the convection warmth of one bubble can’t influence another neighbor bubble. Heat or cold created by convection can easily escape through the several separated layers of bubble film whereby the individual bubbles can obtain there own temperature. This technology also helps decreasing eventual condense which is a common problem with other insulations products.

Reflection insulation or accu insulation

When we talk about insulation, two types of insulation can be used. A reflection or battery insulation. A battery insulation is a well known insulator which is being used in houses and buildings. A disadvantage of a battery insulator is that it takes on an own temperature and releases it to the products or the environment. If for example the insulator has a temperature of +20°C it will transfer this temperature to the products or the surrounding environment. This is nit the case with a reflection insulator. A reflection insulator does not take any temperature and reflects the temperature of the products of the surrounding environment. This means that a reflection insulator will not take as much energy as an battery insulator to create an other temperature.

Field test: If you want to test the difference between both insulators, just put a peace of them in the freezer. Next put your hand on the battery insulator. You will notice that your hand will be feeling cold for a very long time. If you place your hand on the reflection insulator you will notice that it will only feel cold for a few seconds. This seeing the reflection insulator will reflect the temperature of your hand.

According to the encyclopedia

.
Minimal to no condensation

The unique insulation quality of the Temax has an extra advantage regarding the condensation. Tests have shown that only a minimal of condensation is being formed with extreme temperature differences.
