Rock wool, rock wool panels and rock wool sandwich panels are all common materials in construction and industry, but many people are not clear about their differences.
1. Rock wool
Rock wool is a natural rock as the main raw material, high temperature melting, fibre and made of inorganic fibre materials. It has good thermal insulation, heat insulation, sound absorption, fire and other properties. Rock wool is soft and can be processed into various shapes and specifications, and is widely used in construction, industry, ships and other fields. For example, in the thermal insulation of ships, rock wool can be filled between the hull structure to reduce noise and keep the temperature stable.
2.Rock Wool Board
Rock wool board is a plate processed from rock wool. It is usually made of rock wool fibres mixed with a certain proportion of binder, additives, etc., after pressing, curing and other processes. Rock wool board has high strength and stability, and can be directly used for thermal insulation of walls, roofs and other parts. In the building exterior wall insulation, rock wool board can effectively reduce heat transfer, reduce energy consumption. At the same time, the rock wool board has excellent fire performance, can effectively prevent the spread of fire, provide reliable safety for the building.
3. Rock wool sandwich panel
Rock wool sandwich panel is a composite panel consisting of two layers of metal panels (such as colour steel plate, stainless steel plate, etc.) and rock wool core material in the middle. This plate combines the strength of the metal panel and the rock wool thermal insulation properties, with light weight, easy to install, good thermal insulation, fire performance and other advantages. Rock wool sandwich panel is widely used in industrial plants, warehouses, cold storage, activity room and other construction fields. In industrial buildings, rock wool sandwich panels can quickly build a solid space, while ensuring good thermal insulation performance and reducing energy costs. In cold storage, it can effectively prevent cold air leakage and keep the low temperature environment stable.
4. Three differences
Different forms: rock wool is a fibrous material, rock wool board is a plate, rock wool sandwich panel is a composite panel.
Slightly different performance characteristics: rock wool sandwich panel integrated metal panels and rock wool advantages, thermal insulation, fire performance is more outstanding, while having better decorative and installation convenience. Rock wool board is relatively single, mainly used for thermal insulation. Rock wool is more flexible, according to the need for processing.
In short, rock wool, rock wool board and rock wool sandwich panel have their own advantages in different application scenarios. When choosing, you should determine the appropriate material according to the specific needs and the use of the environment, in order to achieve the best thermal insulation, heat insulation, fire prevention and other effects.
