Unifrax provides a range of solutions for cryogenic applications where

weight and cost savings are crucial. Our C-Glass microfibers are

engineered for wetlaid nonwovens producers to use as a raw material

for the manufacturing of cryogenic insulation products. Our binder free

cryogenic glass mat products provide tank manufacturers multiple

options to reduce weight, and cost, in vacuum cooled environments

where temperatures approach absolute zero.

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

� C-Glass composition

� Inorganic, non-combustible, binder free

� Cryogenic Glass Mat available with aluminium foil backing

� Single, Double and Triple layer rolls available

� Light weight

� Less wraps required

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

� Cryogenic insulation media

� Transportation and storage of cryogenic liquids (including Nitrogen,

Oxygen, Aargon, CO2, Ethylene & Nitrous Oxide)

� Transportation and storage of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)

Any new and/or special use of these products, whether or not in an application listed in our literature, must be

submitted to our technical department for their prior written approval.
