SubscribeFor aerospace design, whenever heat is a problem the ideal thermal insulation will be light, super efficient, flexible, and made to the highest quality standards.
Available now for several years, Aeroguard® meets these design parameters in full and has been the insulation of choice for aerospace designers around the world. It is a lightweight, flexible insulation product made to aerospace standards offering full traceability and an ultra low thermal conductivity.
It is available in a selection of covering materials to cater for different exposure temperatures including a version that can withstand direct flame impingement, and it is not affected by operational vibration in normal use.
Now, as part of the Microtherm Group drive for continuous improvement, an even better version of Aeroguard® was announced at the Paris Air Show this year. Aeroguard® LD has a lower thermal conductivity due to an improved materials formulation and it is available in a density range going down to an incredible 128 kg/m3 (7.99 lb/ft3).
The Microtherm Group has a history of providing innovative thermal insulation solutions for aerospace and commercial aviation that stretches back more than 35 years. In that time a number of new products have been introduced, often in response to requests from designers when particular product characteristics have been called for.
Other new products include Microtherm® FreeFlow, a revolutionary microporous insulation in the form of free pouring granules, and Microtherm® Super A which is a microporous insulation with the capability of continuous operation at 1200 oC (2192 oF).
