1. Classification of curtain wall thermal insulation systems
Category A: organic thermal insulation system, using organic composite thermal insulation materials with a thermal conductivity not greater than 0.3 W/(m*K) The thermal insulation strips are made and installed in the curtain wall keel. It is a curtain wall insulation system with ordinary thermal insulation function.
Category B: Inorganic thermal insulation system, using thermal insulation blankets made of inorganic composite thermal insulation materials with thermal conductivity not greater than 0.02W/(m*K), installed in the curtain wall keel, with high efficiency Curtain wall insulation system with thermal insulation function.
2. The birth and development of the two major curtain wall thermal insulation systems
In the last century, two thermal insulation technologies, the cast-type and the strip-type, were born in the world. After decades of development, organic organic products have been formed, represented by the polyurethane casting type of the American Azon Company and the polyamide nylon strip type of the German Technoform Company and the German Schueco Company. Thermal insulation system. Until the end of 2014, almost all curtain wall insulation systems worldwide were based on this type of technology.
At the beginning of this century, the initial research and development of high-performance inorganic insulation materials for buildings has begun. The first-generation products were experimentally applied to civil construction projects in the United States for the first time in 2007, and relevant data collection, testing and Recipe adjustments. At the beginning of 2015, Warmframe Corporation used mature processes and related patented technologies to successfully apply inorganic composite curtain wall insulation blanket materials to China's super high-rise curtain wall buildings through systematic design for the first time. Curtain wall-like insulation systems are also known as warm frame systems. As of the end of 2019, Warm Frame Technology Company has successfully provided warm frame system solutions for more than 400 urban landmark curtain wall buildings of various types in more than 25 central cities in various climate zones around the world, as well as related system thermal testing and engineering quality assurance. Serve. So far, a new generation of high-efficiency inorganic thermal insulation systems, represented by the warm frame system of Warm Frame Technology Company, has gradually been formed.
What is even more striking is that while the high-efficiency inorganic insulation system has performed well in the market since its launch, due to its excellent performance in significantly reducing building energy consumption, inorganic insulation systems were designed and used in 2018-2019. Thermal system building projects have swept almost all important green energy-saving innovative building awards in Asia, including: 2019 Asian Green Building Annual Awards BREEAM Awards 2019; 2018 Sustainable Development Building Awards; 2018 Asian Innovative Green Building Awards; China Region 2018 Times Innovation Award; China's first office building BREEAM four-star certification; China's first residential building BREEAM four-star certification; LEED and WELL building double gold certified office buildings and many other award-winning projects.
At present, organic thermal insulation systems and inorganic thermal insulation systems have gradually become the two major types of curtain wall thermal insulation systems in the world.
