Techno-blocks "TechnoNICOL": description and technical characteristics of products
The choice of insulation that will be used to insulate the facade or walls of the apartment should be very serious, since the chosen material and its subsequent installation will directly depend on how long the insulation will last.
By the way, the selected insulation will also affect the quality of thermal insulation. Therefore, it is better not to skimp and choose really high-quality material from a well-known and trusted manufacturer.
Only by using high quality products can you be sure that the result will be worth the money spent. Experienced builders recommend paying attention to the Tehnoblok insulation of the Standard group.
The purpose of the insulation and its features
Insulation Technoblok Standard is produced by TechnoNIKOL company. This is a fairly well-known manufacturer that produces various types of insulation.
Basically, in the production of this insulation, the manufacturer focuses on thermal insulation materials from extruded polystyrene foam. At the same time, mineral wool insulation is also quite common. By the way, there is a line of materials from mineral wool models, such materials allow you to cover various surfaces when arranging a home.
Mineral wool is considered the most common and popular insulation material, since this material has many different advantages due to its special structure.
The composition of the mineral wool is basalt fibers. This specialized material is melted down by builders to remove all unnecessary substances. Further, with the help of special equipment, an effective thermal insulation material with excellent properties and characteristics is created.
By the way, wool is called mineral wool, because basalt is taken as the main raw material here. Often the prefix "stone" is added to the name itself. Reviews, which talk about the use of mineral wool, reveal that this material really copes with all the tasks assigned to it.
The resulting material has excellent thermal insulation properties. Mineral wool is characterized by safe use in almost all situations. The manufacturer divides all its products into subgroups, endowing each of them with its own special characteristics.
For example, the TechnoNIKOL Technoblock insulation belongs to the products of the Technoblock Standard subgroup. This type of mineral wool is similar to a rigid slab with high strength and excellent waterproofing properties.
Mineral wool insulation is also made by soft slabs or rolls. It all depends on the manufacturer and the special tasks that certain groups of building materials must perform.
Mineral wool Technoblok is used when it is necessary to insulate the facade or external walls, including the basement and walls of cottages. A tiled model of a material with an increased density will only contribute to this method of application. These plates are simply attached to the walls, the material will perfectly withstand the loads, besides, these products are considered hydrophobic.
Lack of reaction to dampness and moisture - this is the main feature of Technoblok mineral wool.
Ordinary stone wool reacts poorly to moisture. Cotton wool swells very quickly, becoming much heavier, begins to damp.As a result, not only thermal insulation can suffer, but also the surrounding structures. In addition, in the insulation itself, inside the material under such unfavorable conditions, fungus and mold are formed.
The specialists of the Technonikol company subject mineral wool slabs to specialized processing, using special compositions that reduce the level of moisture absorption of the material to a minimum. Among other things, other special compounds are also used that are able to protect the insulation from harmful insects and rodents.
The main advantages of the Technoblock insulation are:
- fire resistance;
- practicality;
- durability;
- lack of reaction to dampness and moisture;
- vapor permeability;
- easy installation;
- high density;
- possible noise absorption;
- ideal interaction with various building materials, adhesion with astringent solvents.
The main disadvantages are assigned:
- quite high cost;
- the need for waterproofing.
Characteristics and varieties of mineral wool Technoblock
Experienced builders know very well that when choosing a heater, specific technical characteristics of the material play a particularly important role. They will seriously affect the future quality of thermal insulation.
Mineral wool Technoblok has a thermal conductivity of 0.035-0.37 W / m. And this indicator is considered good. This building material will perfectly retain heat, therefore, when insulating even the outer walls, it will be enough to use one layer of 6-9 cm thick slabs.
The density of the Technoblock is 46-60 kg / m³. This high density is due to the need to use the material as a facade insulation. In this case, high strength is the most important indicator, since the effect of various loads on the facade itself is possible. In addition, high density significantly reduces water absorption.
But the compression ratio of the Technoblock is 8%, this indicator affects the possible deformation of the material. A plate with high compression can be deformed with a little effort; immediately after the pressure is released, the material returns to its original position. The high compression ratio allows more products to be packaged at the same time. Upon opening the package, Technoblock instantly returns to its original appearance.
This material can be used for insulation of external walls and facades without fear, since TechnoNIKOL products have a water absorption coefficient of 1.5%.
The following models belong to specific varieties of the Technoblock:
- Optima;
- Prof;
- Standard.
Minvata Master Technoblock is distinguished by its high density indicators, as mentioned above. For example, Technoblok Prof has a density of 50-60 kg / m³, while for Optima mineral wool this figure reaches 70.
The Tehnoblok thermal insulation is packed in special high-strength polyethylene. The package can contain 5-10 such plates. The material is made in various configurations, the average size of the plates is 1000x1200x600 mm, there are other sizes, for example, 1200x600x50 mm.
Choosing TechnoNikol technoblocks, you can provide your home with reliable thermal insulation and for a long time not think about the costs of repair and restoration of the thermal insulation layer.
