Original Abstract

Vacuum insulation panels (VIP) are among the most progressive materials in the world. Their consumption grows every year, so it is necessary to find alternative sources of production for their production, which are ecological and sustainable in the long term. Textile fibres (both primary and secondary) belong to universal raw materials available in the world in sufficient quantities, with some of the fibres (for example, cotton fibres) being easily renewable, and a large number of secondary / recycled fibres available on the world market with properties close to primary fibres. The paper describes the results of research on the development of VIP based on core insulators made from textile fibres. This is mainly about the development of insulators based on different types of primary and recycled fibres and the study of their behaviour under reduced pressure (vacuum) and the study of the properties of VIP made of these insulators.

Keywords

Vacuum insulation, textile fibres, thermal conductivity, alternative core insulator.
