With the development of the insulation industry, aluminum foil bubble insulation has occupied an increasingly important position in the market with its unique properties. However, many customers still have certain doubts and misunderstandings about the application of aluminum foil bubble insulation. To this end, relying on more than 20 years of industry accumulation, XCGS answer some common questions from customers as follows for your reference:

Q1: Is aluminum foil bubble insulation environmentally friendly? Will it cause harm to human health?

Aluminum foil bubble insulation material is a new type of environmental insulation material made of aluminum film and polyethylene particles by special mechanical process. Environmental protection materials and processes are strictly used in the manufacturing process, which fully meets the relevant national environmental protection standards and safety requirements. And the overall material has no dandruff, non-toxic and tasteless, and is harmless to human health.

Q2: Can aluminum foil bubble insulation be used in other fields besides construction?

Aluminum foil bubble insulation material is not only widely used in the construction field, but also suitable for pipelines, automobiles, packaging and other fields. In the field of construction, it can be used for thermal insulation of walls, roofs and other parts; In the field of pipeline, it can be used for pipeline insulation to effectively reduce heat loss; In the automotive field, it can be used for the insulation and protection of the engine compartment of the car; In the field of packaging, it can be used for insulation and preservation of food, medicine and other items.

Q3: Is the heat insulation effect of aluminum foil bubble insulation material the same?

The heat insulation effect of aluminum foil bubble insulation material depends on the number of bubble layers, bubble size, bubble number and other factors. Generally speaking, the heat insulation effect of aluminum foil bubble insulation material with moderate bubble layer number, uniform bubble size and large number of bubbles is better.

At the same time, it is also necessary to ensure that the aluminum foil bubble insulation material is not damaged. Because aluminum film as the outer surface, with high reflectivity, can effectively block most of the heat radiation; The middle layer consists of PE air bags, which form an efficient thermal insulation barrier. Once the aluminum foil or bubble layer is damaged, the insulation effect will be greatly reduced.

Q4: Can aluminum foil bubble insulation maintain its thermal insulation performance in any humid environment?

Although the aluminum foil bubble insulation material has a certain moisture resistance, its performance may be affected in extreme humid environments. Especially in a high humidity environment, the aluminum foil bubble insulation material may absorb the surrounding moisture, leading to problems such as bubbles, deformation or falling off inside the material, thereby affecting the heat insulation effect.

Therefore, when using aluminum foil bubble insulation material, it is necessary to consider its moisture-proof performance, and take corresponding protective measures (such as using moisture-proof agents, keeping the environment dry, etc.) to ensure that it can still maintain good thermal insulation performance in a humid environment.

Q5: Aluminum foil bubble insulation material is easy to install and maintain, do you need special attention during use?

Aluminum foil bubble insulation is lightweight and easy to install and can be tailored to specific use cases and needs. However, some problems still need to be noted in the process of use.

The material should be kept flat and tightly fitted during installation to ensure its thermal insulation effect. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid the aluminum foil bubble insulation material being scratched or torn by sharp objects, so as not to affect its thermal insulation effect and service life. In addition, the aluminum foil bubble insulation material also needs regular maintenance, check whether there are problems such as foaming, cracking, and timely treatment.

Q6: Does aluminum foil bubble insulation need to be replaced regularly?

Because of its good durability, aluminum foil bubble insulation usually does not need to be replaced regularly under the conditions of normal use and proper maintenance. However, its service life will be affected by a number of factors, including the quality of the material itself, the use of the environment and the specific installation method. Long-term exposure to environmental factors such as ultraviolet radiation, oxidative erosion, and physical wear may gradually degrade the performance of aluminum foil bubble insulation.

Therefore, it is recommended to check the condition of the material regularly and replace it as soon as it shows signs of serious breakage or aging to ensure its continuous insulation effect.

With its more than 20 years of research and innovation in the field of thermal insulation materials, the new aluminum foil bubble insulation material developed by XCGS the national invention patent in 2009, and passed the highest level of fire performance test of Australian authority AWTA in 2013.  At present, the material has been widely used in the pipeline and construction fields, if you have needs, please feel free to contact us!
