High-performance thermal insulation products
The invention relates to an insulation product formed from at least two insulating layers containing aerogels, each of said layers comprising from 25 to 95 wt % of aerogel(s) and from 5 to 75 wt % of fibers, said insulating layers being joined together by means of an organic adhesive, advantageously aqueous, based on vinyl polymer(s). The invention also relates to a method for obtaining said product.
1. An insulation product, formed from at least two insulating layers comprising aerogels, each of said layers comprising from 25 to 95 wt % of at least one aerogel and from 5 to 75 wt % of at least one fiber, said insulating layers being joined together by an organic adhesive based on vinyl polymer(s),
wherein said insulating product has a calorific power PCS below 3 MJ/kg and a tensile strength above 1 kPa.
2. The insulation product of claim 1 , wherein the organic adhesive comprises one or more vinyl polymers selected from the group consisting of a polyvinyl acetate homopolymer and a polyvinyl acetate copolymer, said polymers providing adhesion and initially being dispersed in an aqueous medium in the organic adhesive.
3. The insulation product of claim 1 , wherein the organic adhesive has a PCS below 24 MJ/kg and/or a contribution of the organic adhesive to the PCS of the insulation product is less than a difference between a maximum value of the PCS of the insulation product and a value of the PCS of an assembly formed by the insulating layers not provided with adhesive.
4. The insulation product of claim 1 , wherein the insulating layers are fibrous layers comprising the at least one aerogel.
5. The insulation product of claim 1 , wherein each insulating layer has a PCS less than or equal to about 2.3 MJ/kg.
6. The insulation product of claim 1 , comprising at least two insulating layers, wherein a rate of organic adhesive agent(s) between the two insulating layers is less than or equal to 120 g/m 2 .
7. The insulation product of claim 1 , wherein the organic adhesive comprises at least one plasticizer.
8. A method for obtaining an insulation product, the method comprising at least one step of gluing at least two insulating layers comprising aerogels, each of said layers comprising from 25 to 95 wt % of at least one aerogel and from 5 to 75 wt % of at least one fiber, wherein said gluing is carried with an organic adhesive based on vinyl polymer(s), and
wherein the insulation product has a calorific power PCS below 3 MJ/kg and a tensile strength above 1 kPa.
9. The insulation product of claim 1 , wherein the organic adhesive is an aqueous organic adhesive.
10. The insulation product of claim 1 , wherein a dry extract of the organic adhesive is between 40 and 60 wt %.
11. The insulation product of claim 2 , wherein a rate of the one or more vinyl polymers, relative to a rate of adhesive agent(s) present in the organic adhesive, is at least 50%.
12. The insulation product of claim 2 , wherein a rate of the one or more vinyl polymers, relative to a rate of adhesive agent(s) present in the organic adhesive, is at least 75%.
13. The insulation product of claim 1 , wherein the organic adhesive has a PCS below 24 MJ/kg and/or a contribution of the organic adhesive to the PCS of the insulation product is below 0.7 MJ/kg.
14. The insulation product of claim 1 , wherein the insulating layers are fibrous layers comprising the at least one aerogel, said fibrous layers being mats based on E or C glass fibers.
