Aspen Aerogel – Pyrogel XTF
Pyrogel® XTF aerogel blanket insulation is designed to provide exceptional passive fire protection and superior thermal performance in a thin, lightweight format. Tested to the most stringent fire-protection standards, Pyrogel XTF delivers hydrocarbon pool-fire protection for up to 4 hours, and jet fire protection up to 2 hours. It can also be used to meet the requirements of API 521 for the sizing of pressure relief systems.
Pyrogel XTF incorporates all the insulative qualities of Pyrogel XTE to combine classleading thermal performance with versatile passive fire protection. Hydrophobic and breathable, Pyrogel XTF keeps underlying assets drier for longer, providing superior corrosion defense and maintaining process conditions in the harshest of environments.
Advantages :
- Lower total installed cost compared to traditional passive fire protections
- Faster and easier application gives immediate passive fire protection—no curing or drying time needed
- Can be installed in all weather conditions
- Easily removed and reused after inspection
- Hydrophobic and breathable; resists liquid water and the damaging effects of CUI/CUF
- Lightweight, durable design allows for pre-insulation
- Suitable for applications from ambient to 650°C/1200°F
