Ekowool™ Mat heat and electric insulation is efficiently applied in the following fields:
electric and combustion furnaces - for heat insulation of the melting space as well as other components of the structure
induction furnaces - for heat and electric insulation of induction coils as well as of constructions, network nodes, substrates for overflow launders etc.;
foundry - for thermal insulation of pouring gates and ladles;
nuclear and steam power plants - for pipeline heat insulation;
in airspace application.
for the following aims:
to remove efforts at thermal handling after welding of a pipes and other work pieces;
to make fire-protective shutter, fire-protective suits;
electro and gas welding - for the thermal and fire protection;
appliances (irons, coffee-pots, tea-pots etc.) - for thermal and electric insulation;
warmth keeping lagging for industrial and residential buildings, cottages, saunas, garages, workshops;
gaskets and seals made by stamping and used in gas aggressive media at high temperatures.
Application in construction
Ekowool™ Mat fire resistant sound insulation is used successfully in construction. Ekowool™ Mat increases the resistance of building's internal premises to ignition, improves the heat and noise insulation.
Ekowool™ Mat provides:
high level of impact sound insulation of ceiling floors. Thin layer of Ekowool™ Mat reduces impact sound between load bearing slab and covering 27 dB;
considerable reduction (by 85%) of impact noise in the buildings made of small-size elements (Ekowool™ Mat layers are placed between the basic carrying elements of the building);
efficient sound absorption in spaces where high fire safety is required:
in carriages - including underground
in crowded buildings, in controller's offices etc;
sound absorption in multilayer sound insulating structures, in structures of metal perforated ceilings, perforated wall panels.
Durability, fire resistance and sound insulation properties of Ekowool™ Mat are superior to polyurethane foam, velotherm, cork, parqolag and it can substitute:
velotherm used in joints of buildings;
polypropylene foam, cork, parqolag for floor structures;
glass and mineral wool as fire resistant sound absorber.
Power
Ekowool™ Silika fabrics are applied on nuclear and thermal power stations for thermal insulation of pipelines; at thermal processing after welding pipes to removal of pressure; as the means for individual fire-protection.

Transport
Combination of high physical, mechanical and chemical features Ekowool™ Mat and its modifications determine a wide range of using these materials in transport Sound isolation of vehicle engines and cabins. Fire and sound isolation of railway carriages Packing of exhaust killers and combustion engines of vehicles.
Ready-made articles made of silica materials
The most widely used are fire protective blankets, designed for localization of burning at the initial stage of fire, as well as for extinguishing of clothes of an injured person by means of stopping of oxygen supply. The blankets are made of silica fabrics. The given article satisfies the requirements of the Russian Sea Register of Navigation.
Fire protective blanket is folded and packed into a bright red container, which is put on a wall or fire shield and in case of necessity it can be put into operating state very quickly.
The objects where application of a given article is necessary - departments and laboratories of industrial enterprises, airports, schools, hospitals and so on. The production of analogous articles: blankets, curtains is based on high thermal insulation and fire resistant properties of silica fabrics and they are used mainly for extinguishing of domestic fires (kitchen stoves and bake ovens).
