Greenplex

Greenplex( Greenplex) is a thermal insulation material made from expanded polystyrene. Its field of application is quite wide - from the warming of walls, roofs of houses, to use as a foundation heater, roadway, etc.

Due to its unique properties, the grindplex can also serve as hydro and noise insulation.

Technical characteristics of the

's Greenspot So, let's take a closer look at what a grindplex is. It consists of extruded polystyrene foam and has the shape of a plate. Due to its structural features, the material has low thermal conductivity and low weight.

There are no micropores in the polymer base, which excludes the ingress of moisture into the cavity of the material. Therefore, the grinplex practically does not absorb moisture. This makes it possible to use the insulation without laying the waterproofing.

When making a heater in the melt polystyrene add a special substance - flame retardant, which prevents the ignition of the material. According to the results of tests of heat resistance, the fireplex is included in the G1 flammability group, but there are videos that disprove it.

This material is not affected by atmospheric precipitation, temperature changes, does not crumble, does not shrink and does not rot. The heat insulator is resistant to chemical compounds. In addition, the advantage of the material is high biological stability, which prevents the damaging effects of rodents, insects, fungal formations and mold.

Greenplex is an environmentally friendly material that is absolutely harmless to humans and the environment.

The minimum service life of a heater is 50 years.

Application

The material, thanks to its properties, can serve as a heat insulator:

• rail track;
• road surface;
• foundation;
• roofing;
• walls;
• floor;
• communications;
• refrigeration equipment;
• aerodrome routes, etc.

Mounting

Heater is easy to install. It is processed and adjusted to any required size or shape. Cut the right amount of material by using a knife or a saw with fine teeth. In this case, the insulation plate does not crumble and does not crack.

Mounted with special dowels or glue compositions. The relief surface of the plate promotes the dense fit of any building material.

Walls warmed with greenpeace can be painted. Therefore, it is possible to use the material for facing the facades of buildings and interior decoration.

Disadvantages of

Among the shortcomings can be identified high susceptibility to ultraviolet radiation( requires coating).With a long exposure to high temperatures, the heater is prone to buckling. Relatively high cost.

However, according to people, in comparison with many advantages, such shortcomings of the material are not essential.

In addition, the grindplex has a number of advantages in comparison with similar types of heaters.

Гринплекс and Пенопласт

Both materials consist of expanded polystyrene. But, polystyrene is made from "coalesced" between particles of polystyrene. Over time, they crumble. Especially when exposed to moisture or during a cycle, freezing-thawing.

Grindplex and Minvata

Mineral wool is very susceptible to moisture, quickly becomes wet, and its main properties( heat and sound insulation), practically, are reduced to a minimum. Over time, such a heater sits down and stumbles. Grinplex is not affected by any of the above factors.
