Mascoat thermal Insulating Coating

Mascoat Industrial-DTI is a composite ceramic insulator that’s formulated to provide thermal protection for tanks, vessels, boilers and other facility surfaces up to 400°F (200°C). This premium, multi-use product is a microscopic matrix of air-encapsulated ceramic particles, which are suspended in a high-grade acrylic binder. The coating’s high-tech formulation can be sprayed on as a combined paint and insulation system, improving equipment aesthetics while protecting substrates, safeguarding personnel and preventing corrosion.

Mascoat Industrial-DTI has been tested to ASTM standards and exceeds most criteria for weatherability, adhesion, flexibility and UV resistance. Because of its proven durability and versatility, it is an ideal insulator for storage tanks, vessels, heat exchangers and transfer pipelines in a variety of industries—including paper & pulp, food & beverage, asphalt and petrochemical refining. For applications requiring more aggressive insulation, the coating can be applied in multiple layers while still allowing for full substrate viewing and easy maintenance.

Facilities that rely on Mascoat Industrial-DTI also enjoy improved personnel safety by protecting personnel from substrate burns and heat-related injuries. In addition, the science-based coating helps to stabilize interior equipment temperatures, which reduces energy loss, saves money and improves manufacturing efficiency.

Spiralite is a complete ductwork system; bends, shoes, tees and indeed any shape that can be made in metal can be made in Spiralite pre-insulated ducting.

Mascoat Insulation vs. Conventional Insulation

Designed to reduce heat transfer while saving space and reducing conventional insulation maintenance, Mascoat coatings are a high-tech solution ideal for industrial, marine and transportation substrates.

How do Mascoat's products work? The answer lies in an understanding of heat transfer.

  • When heat is generated, Thermal Dynamic Heat Transfer (TDHT) begins. During TDHT, molecules try to reach equilibrium. This means that if one surface is hotter than another, the substrates will try to “equalize,” or meet the same temperature. This process can be problematic for commercial and industrial environments, since it causes buildup of unwanted facility and exterior equipment heat. It also leads to a loss of vital energy used during manufacturing processes. The result? Reduced manufacturing efficiency, higher utility bills and dangerously hot working conditions.

  • Traditional “batt” insulation works by creating a barrier that slows heat conduction through floors, walls and substrates. The “R-value” of the insulation determines how much it slows down the heat transfer, higher R-values represent better product insulation.

  • Rather than simply employing this type of conduction technology, Mascoat coatings also use reflective, low-emissivity and low-transmittance technology to improve insulating results. Mascoat coatings are made of hollow, ceramic glass insulating particles. Similar to a Thermos bottle, these particles reflect light wave energy (heat) away from the substrate and back into the atmosphere, preventing heat transfer through radiation and dealing with heat prior to substrate entry (rather than simply slowing heat absorption). And since Mascoat's products reflect up to 85 percent of generated heat away from substrates, they remain cool to the touch.
