Cryogenic

For cryogenic applications of -150°F (-101°C) and below requiring “super” insulation, evacuated perlite provides a superior insulation with thermal conductivity up to 40 times less than 0.200 Btu-in/h-ft3 °F (0.029 W/m-K) depending on vacuum and temperature. Usual applications for evacuated perlite insulation are in double walled helium and hydrogen storage spheres. It may also be used for storage of oxygen, nitrogen and LNG when especially low thermal conductivities are desired. In addition to large field erected storage tanks, evacuated perlite is used to insulate smaller shop fabricated vessels designed for the storage of many of the cryogenic gases.

It does not react with other chemicals used together and does not affect the chemical properties of other chemicals. Perlite is insoluble in water, does not corrode the product it is used with, and acts as a neutral substance in acidity calculations, ie it does not show acidic or basic properties. In terms of the use of perlite in the machine, it does not clog the machine, extends the life of the washing machines and reduces the cost of renovation.
In addition, it is not heavy due to its low density, which makes it easy to use.

Cryogenic tanks are produced to carry and store gases in liquid phase below -101 degrees. Insulation is very important to prevent liquid gases from entering the gas phase. Perlite is used to maintain the liquefaction temperature of all liquefied gases at low temperatures (up to 270 ° C) in double-walled tanks. Perlite is freely filled between the double walls of the tank at atmospheric pressure or under vacuum.

Key Benefits of Product

In addition to excellent thermal properties, perlite insulation is relatively low in cost, easy to handle and install, noncombustible and meets fire regulations, reduces insurance rates and does not shrink, swell, warp or slump.

With our "TurkPerlite" brand, we export perlite products to be used in casting, molding, foundry industry, agriculture, horticulture, textile, construction, heat and sound insulation, ceramic and glass industry, filtration, cooling, medicine, fertilizer and many other sectors.
