Fiberglass

Fibreglass matting is also used as insulating material and offers the following advantages:

· High resistance to fire;

· High resistance to microbiological attack;

· Good resistance to most chemicals;

· High heat resistance;

· Available in a variety of presentations;

· Low thermal conductivity

Density (kg/m3) – 144

Thermal conductivity (W m-1 °C-1) / (kcal h-1 m-1 °C-1) – 0.036
