The Use of Insulation Material in Ship Engineering
With the popularity of rock wool, people are constantly exploring new application areas to enhance the application value of rock wool. Nowadays, rock wool has also begun to be widely used in ships, mainly in ship thermal insulation and fireproof partitions.
Overview
Main Application of Rock Wool
First of all, the board made of rock wool has the characteristics of thermal insulation, heat insulation, sound absorption, sound insulation, fire prevention, waterproofing, etc., which is suitable for ship thermal insulation and fireproof partitions.
Secondly, marine rock wool has the characteristics of light weight, high strength, durability, vibration resistance, moisture resistance, etc., which can effectively reduce the weight of the hull and improve the fuel economy and navigation performance of the ship. In addition, marine rock wool can also be used for ship pipe insulation, which can effectively reduce heat loss and improve energy utilization efficiency.
In summary, rock wool is widely used in ships, such as ship cold storage, lightweight walls, roofs, ceilings, floating floors, cabin units, etc. It can improve the performance and safety of ships, provide a comfortable living environment, reduce energy consumption, and achieve the purpose of energy conservation and emission reduction.
Please note that there is no direct national standard for the use of rock wool on ships, but without exception, a ship inspection certificate is required to meet the standards and be used in various structures of the ship.
