Termopor® insulation

TERMOPOR eps

  • Polystyrene: a material with long and successful history
    • Polystyrene is discovered in 1893 from an alchemist in Berlin, Germany; out of storax a natural remnant of the tree Liquidambar orientalis, with the distillation of the oily substance monomer he got a material that he called sterol.
    • In 1930 the scientists in BASF, Ludvigshafen, Germany had upgraded the production process of this material and started with the commercial production of the sterol.
    • In 1954 the sterol (in form of foam) that we use nowadays was accidentally discovered in the USA, by a chemist trying to find an easy (low weight) insulating material based on polystyrene; what he did was a combination of styrene with isobutylene under high pressure, which resulted in a polystyrene foam that was 30 times lighter than the normal hard polystyrene.

Characteristics of the product

  • EPS (expanded polystyrene) is a product with a broad range of insulating values. In the structure of the product is 98% air, it’s not toxic, it’s resistant to fire and moist and it does not rot. EPS primarily is used as an effective thermal insulation of walls, roofs, floors at any type of structures. It can be produced in a broad range of dimensions and shapes. It has a great application in the packaging and food industry, as well as in the agriculture.
  • Low weight
    • TERMOPOR EPS is 98% effectively closed air and 2% material with very low weight. The densities at which is normally produces are 15-35 mg/m3; these attributes allow the product wide application in the constructional activities, and at the same time it is with very low weight which makes it easy to transport to the construction site, and inside the structure that is being built. The advantage of this low weight material that at the same time is very hard can be seen at the massive constructions where a thicker layer is needed, and at the same time to be light and hard, and at the bottom line to be cost efficient.
  • Hardness and structural stability
    • Despite the low weight, the simple structure of TERMOPOR EPS, allows for its exceptional hardness. The wetting of the material (rain exposure) in any case does not lower the characteristics in term of its dimensional stability, max. load allowed (which is not the case with the fiber-like insulations, the stone wool and the glass wool). This makes the product ideal for using it in the construction as for ex. when building higher buildings, bridges etc. For ex. a test that has been conducted in germany on a EPS panel that has been burrowed in the earth for 30 years, the results showed that its power of compression is 100Kp, which clearly demonstrates that after all that time the product still retains its constant stability and durability.
  • Economical
    • TERMOPOR eps does not absorb moisture, and it is resistant to all kinds of degradation of the insulating capabilities that are caused by water, moist or rot (same as the stone wool for example). The condensation is the main problem of the structure of almost any façade, at the non-insulated structures the moist-clogs are a common scene, and with time they grow and manifest as a permanent damaging of the structure that is very difficult to fix.

  • Handling and application
    • TERMOPOR eps is light weighted, hard material that is safe to use and apply. The simplicity during its cutting and modeling enables a wide range of usage during the detailing of the facade (around windows, doors etc.) The cement, mold, concrete, plaster are all complementary materials that go with TERMOPOR EPS and when used in a combination with it don’t have any negative influence, on the other hand together they can be used in the various phases of the construction of the structures.

How to apply TERMOPOR-F?

  • image

    1.The surface (brick, concrete etc.) at which the TERMOPOR-F is applied, have to be cleaned off any dust or bumps.

  • image

    2.At the bottom of the wall the cornering outline is applied whose dimensions depend on the thickness of the TERMOPOR-F panels, for example, if you use panels with 50mm thickness than the cornering outline has to be with 53mm thickness.

  • image

    3.The cornering outline on the wall is strengthened with standard screws and wall-rivets. Eventually as a replacement of the cornering outlines can be used a wood lath whose thickness is compatible with the thickness of the TERMOPOR-F panels, that are used for the thermal insulation.

  • image

    4.Along the strengthened cornering lath on the wall the rabitz net is glued, whose bottom end after the application of the first panel is flipped over it. For the net application, special glue for polystyrene is used.

  • image

    5.TERMOPOR-F 20kg/m³ panels are glued on the wall in that way the glue is equally spread on every corner of the panel and on several other places on the panel.

  • image

    6.Every new row begins at the middle of the previous panel.

  • image

    7.After the application of all the TERMOPOR-F panels is complete, the next step is the application of cornering PVC outlines on all the openings of the facade (doors, windows etc.)

  • image

    8.On the glued TERMOPOR-F panels a layer of glue is applied and in it the rabitz net is pressed (5*5mm). The net is applied in that way that there is overlapping.

  • image

    9.By adding just a little more glue you move on to the final refining of the surface, and after 24 hours, with a roller, all over the surface, a layer of the founding matter is applied.

  • image

    10.Few hours after the application of the founding matter is applied has been done, you can start with the application of the top layer of the facade, for which we use a smoothing tool.
