Features
Silicone Sponge Insulation
Fiberglass Insulation
Thermal Insulation Performance
Closed-cell structure traps air pockets, providing superior thermal insulation.
Primarily offers heat resistance rather than true thermal insulation.
Heat Loss Control
Effectively controls heat loss from steam and hot pipelines, improving process efficiency.
Provides heat protection but does not effectively prevent heat loss.
External Surface Temperature
Significantly lowers outer surface temperature, improving operator safety.
External surface often remains hot, especially in high-temperature applications.
Sealing Capability
Compressible and seals around the pipe, preventing heat escape through gaps.
Cannot compress or seal, allowing heat to escape through air gaps.
Moisture Resistance
Closed-cell structure prevents water absorption, maintaining insulation efficiency.
Can absorb moisture, which reduces insulation performance over time.
Fiber Safety
Non-fibrous material, clean and safe for industrial environments.
May shed fine glass fibers, causing skin irritation and contamination risks.
Durability & Service Life
Excellent resistance to aging, compression set, and environmental exposure.
May fray, degrade, or lose insulation efficiency over time.
Flexibility
Highly flexible and compressible, easily fits pipelines, bends, and irregular surfaces.
Limited flexibility, making installation more difficult in complex layouts.
Fire Resistance
Inherently flame resistant and self-extinguishing.
Heat resistant but does not provide the same flexible fire-retardant insulation performance.
Multi-Functional Performance
Provides thermal insulation, sealing, protection, and safety in one solution.
Primarily used for heat shielding of wires and cables.
