What makes the material such a wide range of applications is its operational characteristics listed above, in particular the temperature range ranging from −60 to +250 degrees Celsius against the backdrop of a service life declared by the manufacturer of over 30 years.

Types of liquid thermal insulation Bronya

The manufacturer offers several types of ceramic liquid insulation to solve a number of problems. Pepper available options Reservations on the market are lower.

Ultra-thin thermal insulation “Standard” is presented in the form of a base coating for economical treatment of surfaces and structures of any type with increased heat and sound insulation.

“Classic” paint is also a basic modification of the coating with the main feature - excellent adhesive properties, regardless of the type of surface. Among all the types presented, it is one of the thinnest materials.

The Anticorrosive coating is universal in its kind and guarantees the formation of a thin layer of insulation, which can be applied even to rusty metal surfaces. The material shows excellent thermal insulation characteristics against the background of increased resistance to corrosion.

“Winter” paint was specially developed for application to surfaces in the autumn-winter period at low temperatures. The material differs from other types of liquid insulation in its ability to perfectly evenly cover surfaces at temperatures down to −30 degrees Celsius.

Insulation "Facade" was created for treating the external walls of the facade in order to increase the level of heat and sound insulation. Apply paint in a layer of up to 1 mm in one treatment.

“Light” is a modern putty with thermal insulation properties, indispensable during construction and finishing work, when it is necessary to level and at the same time insulate surfaces made of different materials with operating temperatures ranging from −60 to +150 degrees Celsius.

“Fire protection” is a composition for increasing the fire resistance of steel surfaces in industrial and domestic premises.

"Universal" - thermal insulation insulation for processing any type of surface, the closest analogue of the “Standard” and “Classic” described above. The advantage of the paint is its versatility and affordable price against the backdrop of excellent heat-protective properties and economical consumption.

Armor Nord - another one a budget option liquid thermal insulation with characteristics similar to those of the “Winter” coating.

“Metal” insulation exhibits properties similar to those of the “Anticor” coating, that is, it is also used for treating metal surfaces with different degrees of rust damage.

Anti-condensate PRO coating can be applied to surfaces with high level no condensation special processing. Suitable for thermal insulation of pipelines and all kinds of equipment with a wet surface without shutting down during operation.

Liquid Armor: how to apply correctly

It is most convenient to use an airless sprayer for liquid insulation. One treatment allows you to apply a millimeter layer of material to the surface. Under such conditions, the consumption of thermal insulation does not exceed the norm, and there is no risk of layering.

It is allowed to carry out thermal insulation work using Armor at temperatures from −35 to +150 degrees Celsius - it all depends on the chosen grade of material. Before processing, the paint is mixed in a container until a homogeneous consistency is formed with a small inclusion of distilled water.

Technologies for energy saving and thermal insulation of residential and industrial buildings are rapidly developing, new materials are constantly appearing, which are very different in their mechanism of action from the heat insulators that were used before.
One of these materials is liquid thermal insulation armor, or, as it is also called, thermal paint. In this article we will look at the most popular brands of liquid thermal insulation: “Bronya”, “Izollat”, “Astratek”, their characteristics and scope of application.

Liquid thermal insulation - what is it?

Warm paint is newest material, with the help of which a very thin thermal insulation layer is created on the insulated surface. Liquid thermal insulation has truly unique qualities, thanks to which it is possible to achieve a noticeable effect in saving heat with a layer of insulation 1 millimeter thick. Like many of the latest developments, thermal paint is a product of the space industry. Having proven itself well in this industry, liquid thermal insulation has begun to be actively used in construction.

Liquid thermal insulation is applied using a brush, roller, or airless spraying. After the material has completely polymerized, a layer of thermal insulation is formed on the insulated surface, which has excellent energy-saving characteristics. The coating works as a “thermal mirror”, thus ensuring heat retention inside the room.

Thermal paint consists of the following components:

Filler. It is a mixture of ceramic, glass and polymer balls, invisible to the naked eye. The inside of the balls is filled with air.

Binder. Made from latex or acrylic.

Supplements The composition of the additives depends on where exactly the thermal paint is intended to be used.

The composition of the thermal paint directly determines its properties, as well as the requirements for the insulated surface and, accordingly, the method of applying the material. Therefore, in order to get the desired result, before purchasing a thermal paint, you need to pay attention to its composition and scope of application.

How does liquid thermal insulation work?

Heat, as everyone knows from school physics courses, is transferred in three ways:

• Thermal conductivity. Thermal energy is transferred from a warm object to a cold one. Thermal paint contains only 20 percent of components that can conduct heat.
• Convection. Heat is transferred by the substance itself. Due to the fact that most of the mass of liquid thermal insulation consists of balls, convection losses are negligible.
• Radiation. Heat is transferred due to the internal energy of the heated substance. Thanks to the same hollow balls, the thermal paint reflects and dissipates heat. Almost 90% of thermal energy is reflected and remains in the room. The principle is somewhat similar to how a thermos works.

Liquid thermal insulation for facades

Facade thermal paint can be used for insulation of both household and industrial facilities. The most popular brands of facade liquid thermal insulation: “Astratek”, “Isollat”, “Bronya Classic”, “Bronya Facade” - are also used for insulating wooden buildings.
Isollat ​​brand insulation contains special substances that provide the surface with a self-cleaning effect - rain washes away all dirt and dust from the surface.

Purposes of facade thermal insulation:

Reducing heat loss through the facade to a minimum, saving on air conditioning during the warm period.
Insulation of internal walls.
Insulation of balconies, loggias.
Insulation of floors and basements.

Applying thermal paint to the internal and external walls of a building helps not only to conserve heat and save on heating costs, but also prevents the appearance of fungus, mold, condensation and icing of the walls.

For buildings that need additional protection from fire, there are special modifications of thermal paints that have a flammability class of “NG”: “Armor fire protection”, “Akterm Fireproof”, “Korund Vulcan”, “Akterm NG”.

Before applying liquid thermal insulation, the surface must be properly prepared, otherwise the consumption of liquid thermal insulation will increase and adhesion problems may occur. Instructions for surface treatment are included with the material, but in the vast majority of cases, a deep penetration acrylate primer is used.

If you believe numerous customer reviews, it is not advisable to cover the entire facade with thermal paint. But the treatment of individual areas with a heat insulator - for example, slopes and others hard to reach places gives excellent results.

Liquid insulation for work in winter

It differs from other analogues in that it can be applied to the surface at subzero temperatures. This includes brands such as “Akterm Nord”, “Korund Zima”, “Bronya Zima”.
Thermal paint "Akterm Nord" retains its properties at a temperature of -300C. A mixture consisting of white spirit and solvent is used as a solvent for this thermal insulation material. Before applying Akterm Nord paint, the surface must be thoroughly cleaned and dried. When working with this material, there are restrictions on surface humidity: for plaster and brick no more than 5%, for concrete 4%. Humidity environment should not exceed 75-80%.
This thermal paint is a water-inactive system. It contains a mass of microgranules that have closed pores. Microgranules are in a solution of silicone-modified resin. Various plasticizers, fungicides and biocides are used as additional components.

Application of liquid thermal insulation materials to hot pipes

For insulation various kinds pipelines, chimneys, ventilation and air ducts, the following brands of thermal paint are used: “Korund Classic”, “Akterm Standard”, “Keramoizol”.
In order to achieve maximum results, the so-called “sandwich technology” is used when insulating pipes, according to which layers of liquid insulation alternate with layers of fiberglass having a thickness of 0.5 mm. A total of 4-5 layers are applied. To ensure a smooth surface, a special varnish is applied to the last layer.
If it is necessary to insulate a polymer pipe, an adhesion test is first carried out. If the pipe surface is dry and clean, then no problems should arise.

Liquid thermal insulation "Armor" - scope and technical characteristics

The very name of this thermal insulation material indicates what it is reliable protection. The material was developed at the Volgograd Innovation Resource Center. American developments were taken as a basis, on the basis of which it was possible to obtain an improved thermal insulation material at a price affordable for the average consumer.

Why is liquid thermal insulation armor so popular among buyers, in given time only positive ones?

The manufacturer presents a wide range of its products: “Bronya Classic”, “Bronya Anticor”, “Bronya Winter”, “Bronya Facade”, “Bronya Light”. Each type of paint has clearly defined and tested technical characteristics. Therefore, there will be no problems with the choice of insulator and method of its application.
All Bronya brand products are environmentally friendly and safe for health. Thermal insulation armor does not burn, it is easy to apply to all types of surfaces, the service life of the thermal insulation is several decades.

And if you decide to opt for this brand, then you can buy armor liquid thermal insulation much cheaper than its analogues, since this insulation is produced in Russia.

thermal paint "Astratek" - main characteristics

"Astratek" is the latest thermal insulation material on water based, which contains microscopic spheres made of ceramics. Acrylic polymers are used as a binder.

This thermal paint is used in the energy sector, in construction for insulation of walls, facades, floors, roofs, slopes, water pipes with hot and cold water, ventilation and air conditioning systems. “Astratek” creates an ultra-thin thermal insulation layer on the surface, which prevents condensation and protects the surface from corrosion, mold and fungi. The paint can be applied to concrete, polymer, brick and metal surfaces. "Astratek" can withstand temperature changes from -600C to +2500C.

The paint is non-toxic, environmentally friendly, and absolutely non-flammable. At temperatures above 8000C, the insulator begins to decompose into carbon and nitrogen oxides, which significantly slow down combustion.

liquid thermal insulation "Isollat". Insulation of metal structures with liquid thermal insulation

This brand is recommended for application to the surface of prefabricated metal structures: garages, hangars, warehouses, etc. The maximum effect is achieved with double-sided surface treatment - outside and inside. Thus, the paint protects the room from the inside from heat loss, and from the outside from excessive heating during the warm season.

If it is necessary to apply Isollat ​​to galvanized metal, the surface must first be degreased, as problems with adhesion may arise. For complete confidence, you can apply an inexpensive primer, for example, GF-1 brand, to the galvanized surface.

"Isollat" does not stick well to of stainless steel and aluminum due to the oxide film formed on the surface of these metals. Therefore, before applying thermal paint to these materials, it is necessary to pre-treat them with a primer.

Which thermal paint should I choose?

We hope that the above material will to some extent help you decide on the choice of liquid heat insulator. And in order to simplify the issue of choosing paint as much as possible, below we will give approximate prices for insulation materials intended for walls and other structural elements of a residential building.

“Corundum classic” cost 10 liters – 3700-4960 rubles.
Astartek Universal" cost 1 liter - 415-450 rubles.
“Bronya Classic” cost 1 liter – 380-415 rubles.

The term “ultra-thin thermal insulation” refers to a group of paints with fillers made of ceramic microspheres with rarefied air inside, most often acrylic-based. This insulation has unique characteristics: with a minimum weight load, it completely covers building construction while protecting them from moisture and corrosion. Recognized leader in this field - Bronya paints and suspensions of domestic production.

This is a homogeneous suspension white, which after drying forms a matte film with high density and resistance to most external influences. The insulation effect is achieved by retaining heat inside the ceramic granules, elasticity - thanks to the acrylic base, other parameters - by introducing catalysts, anti-corrosion and antiseptic additives. Depending on the intended purpose (specific functions are indicated in the table below), cost and properties, 11 modifications of Bronya thermal insulation compounds are distinguished:

• Basic: Classic, Facade, Winter, Anticorrosive.
• Budget: Station wagon, Wall, Nord, Metal (brands with similar characteristics, but cheaper).
• Specialized: Standard, Light, Fire protection.

Main technical characteristics of thermal insulation:

• Thermal conductivity coefficient is 0.0012 W/m K according to the manufacturer’s statement.
• Vapor permeability is 0.001 mg/m·h·Pa for Bronya Classic, Anticor and 0.013 for brands that are recommended to be purchased for thermal insulation of facades and walls.
• The average density of the composition is 0.558 g/cm3.
• Frost resistance – up to 50 cycles without change appearance coverings.
• Flammability group - NG and G1 depending on the form of release.
• Adhesion to the base: 1.33 MPa - to cement mortars and concrete, 2.04 – for brick, 2.3 – for metal.
• Standard operating temperature range: from -60 °C to +200 (up to 140 for budget modifications).
• The service life of Bronya insulation is at least 15 years.

The consumption of liquid thermal insulation declared by the manufacturer is 1 liter per 1 m2 with a thickness of the applied layer of 1 mm, reviews confirm this. This indicator strongly depends on the quality of preparation and the evenness of the working base. The minimum drying time for a thin layer of Bronya paint is 1 hour; it takes a day to completely harden.

Due to its high adhesion, ultra-thin thermal insulation is optimal for insulating pipe lines, metal containers and surfaces; according to reviews, in this regard, it is better and more convenient than rolled mineral wool. The scope of application is practically unlimited and includes horizontal, vertical and inclined structures inside and outside residential and industrial buildings. Bronya paint is recommended to be purchased for thermal insulation of slopes, facades, roofs, floors, ventilation, water heaters, tanks, refrigerators and similar objects. According to reviews, maximum effect is achieved by insulating hard-to-reach and limited-space systems, including underground ones.

Work begins with surface preparation: removing loose areas, old coatings, removing rust, degreasing or dusting. This insulation has good adhesion to any building materials, but installation on an uneven or unstable base unnecessarily increases consumption. The paint adheres better if the surface is pre-treated with Bronya primers. The composition is applied to clean and dry structures using an airless sprayer with a pressure of 60-80 bar or a brush with soft natural bristles.

Immediately before installation, the liquid thermal insulation is mixed (manually or construction mixer) and, if necessary, diluted (exclusively with distilled water). The process requires care; it is important to leave the microspheres intact. The volume of injected liquid is limited: for manual staining it should not exceed 5%, for mechanized staining - 3. The same applies to external parameters: when thermal insulation works In conditions of high humidity, it is better not to dilute the paint with anything. Ignoring these requirements leads to an increase in the drying time of the layer and is considered a violation of technology. An exception is made only during preliminary application (when the main Bronya composition is used as a primer), in this case up to 30% water is added.

The specific conditions of work and the recommended layer thickness depend on the brand, but it is better to apply an ultra-thin coating of thermal insulation several times than once, but thickly. According to reviews to achieve correct subtlety you need to perform quick and short strokes. The number of layers of Bronya insulation is determined by a special calculation, but at a minimum the optical thickness should be achieved (0.5 mm, walls or structural elements do not show through the paint), the maximum is 6 mm. Each subsequent layer is performed only after the previous one has completely dried.

Review Reviews

“I bought heat insulating paint Armor Universal when insulating a balcony, it took me 15 liters for 14 m2. I applied it after sealing the cracks, in one layer with a regular soft brush. The thickness was no more than 1 mm, which helped save space. Condensation does not accumulate on the walls of the balcony; the material protects well from heat loss.”

Roman, St. Petersburg.

“I used liquid insulation of the Bronya Stena brand to insulate an extension in a private house, I am completely satisfied with the result. The material withstood the winter without being covered with condensation and frost, the room retains heat better. The paint is expensive, but it is used sparingly; on average, 1 m2 will cost 500 rubles, but there is no need for additional protection.”

Georgy, Moscow.

“I advise you to buy Bronya paint for insulation window slopes outside, any brand will do. It withstands ultraviolet radiation well and additionally insulates the opening from heat loss, moisture penetration and partially from extraneous sounds. Personally, I applied it to plaster, but a plastic slope will also work; the adhesion of this type of insulation is very high.”

Alexey, Moscow region.

“I worked with Bronya Anticor thermal insulation last summer, used it to protect ventilation ducts and a heating pipeline between two houses with a common boiler. I didn’t notice any flaws in the paint; in my opinion, the coating does the job better roll insulation and it looks neat at the same time.”

Evgeniy, Volgograd.

Price

When insulating the facades of buildings, various types of coolants, iron containers and structures, and other structures, special substances are used, which are materials that conduct thermal energy rather poorly. Perhaps the most popular insulation of this kind is Bronya thermal insulation. This material characterized by its unique composition, which allows it to prevent heat loss even with a layer of 1 mm. Typically, Armor is used in almost all construction activities where protection from low temperatures is required.

Like most of similar thermal insulation materials, Armor is a white pasty substance. It should be applied with a spatula or any other suitable tool to the surface. When the material hardens (usually it takes no more than 1 day), a hard protective layer is formed. It is worth noting that the thickness of the applied layer here depends on what effect is required, although it is often no more than 6 millimeters. The fact is that further expansion no longer entails an increase in quality.

Prices and types of thermal insulation Bronya

The material described can be of four types. The choice of one or the other depends on your specific needs, as well as what is most suitable for your operating environment. Let's get acquainted with each type of heat-insulating paint, consider their characteristics and prices.

"Facade"

The best option, used primarily for external insulation of objects. It is applied to the surface in a layer of 1 millimeter, which significantly reduces the time spent on carrying out installation work, for elements located in the open air. This material is also characterized by having a high vapor permeability rate.

The approximate cost of 1 liter of material is 390-410 rubles.

"Bronya Classic"

The latest thermal insulation Bronya, which is also universal. The paint can be used on almost any surface that requires thermal insulation. Available in plastic buckets with a capacity of 5-20 liters. Typically, all types of Armor are produced in such buckets (with the exception of “Winter”).

Average market value starts from 390 rubles.

"Winter"

This is a unique thermal insulation coating that can be applied even at sub-zero temperature surface to be treated (but not below -35 degrees). Thanks to these characteristics, the paint can be used in winter, and outdoors; The paint itself dries perfectly after application, and crystallization does not occur. This type of Armor has received extremely positive reviews. Available in plastic buckets of 10 and 20 liters.

On average, one liter of paint costs about 440 rubles.

"Antikor"

The last type of material being considered today is also a liquid insulating paint. The main advantage of the material is that it can be applied not only to specially prepared/cleaned surfaces, but also directly to a roughly cleaned rusty surface. If desired, this option can be combined with Classic Armor.

Average market value of "Antikor" equal to 430 rubles.

Thermal insulation for water supply and heating pipes

Previously, we talked about how to choose insulating material for pipes and what to do if the pipeline is frozen; in addition to this article, we advise you to read this information

Liquid thermal insulation – what is it?

As is known, most of the scientific developments widely used today in Everyday life, came to us from the space or military industry. And liquid thermal insulation material (which is the described Armor) is no exception, since at first it was used to insulate spaceships.

Any spaceship- this is, first of all, a high-precision system, therefore, special requirements are put forward for spacecraft, including:

• strength, low weight;
• ability to withstand low temperatures with minimal heat loss;
• resistance to various aggressive environments, corrosion, etc.

And all this, obviously, can be achieved by using liquid thermal insulation. But what is she? In essence, liquid thermal insulation is a polymer composition of liquid consistency, which consists of rubber and acrylic based binders, fixatives, catalysts, ultra-thin microspheres of ceramic origin and anti-corrosion additives.

The substance is applied in the same way as regular paint(a layer of 1-6 millimeters, as noted above) on any surface. In liquid form, the heat insulator also resembles paint, but after drying it turns into a durable and at the same time plastic polymer coating, much like a film.

Note! Thermal insulation should be applied in several layers. As for operating conditions, the hardened polymer layer can be used at almost any temperature.

If we talk specifically about construction and energy, here Bronya thermal insulation can provide:

Based on everything said above, we can conclude that the scope of application of this insulating material is almost limitless.

Note! It is worth adding a few words about the excellent adhesion of thermal insulation to most of the materials used today. Thus, some types of coating are so resistant to rust that they can be applied directly to it (but in this case, considerable wet peeling must be removed, for which you can use a regular spatula). There is also water in the mixture and it should be added when the mixture has thickened somewhat from long-term storage.

Where is Armor used?

Due to its special characteristics, this heat insulator is used universally at various repair and construction sites; and it’s not surprising, because the armor can easily withstand temperatures of both -60 degrees and +280 degrees. If you believe numerous reviews, houses treated with Bronya thermal insulation gain high-quality protection from humidity and cold. With the help of Armor, you can even eliminate sources of heat loss in tanks and heating lines. In addition, this heat insulator can be used to insulate internal partitions and roofing structures, finishing the walls of new premises.

It is also worth noting that when compared with other materials for similar purposes, Bronya thermal insulation has significant advantages, including:

• long service life (may exceed fifteen years);
• the minimum number of tools required to apply the material;
• high rate of adhesion, that is, adhesion to the surface;
• the minimum thickness of the formed layer (this is no more than 6 millimeters);
• Finally, the last advantage is that the heat insulator can be applied to almost all surfaces.

Note! The consumption of Armor mentioned above (meaning 1 liter per 1 sq.m., provided that the layer thickness is 1 millimeter) is an indicator calculated in laboratory conditions. In reality, this indicator may change; it all depends on the specific conditions of use (for example, if the surface is uneven, then the consumption will definitely increase).

Now let's find out more specific examples applications of liquid thermal insulation found in everyday life. So, as noted above, Armor can be used to insulate walls, roofs and windows, not only from the inside, but also from the outside. What is characteristic is that the surfaces themselves remain “breathable” after treatment. Thermal insulation is also used in pipelines (not only for hot, but also for cold water), in the heating equipment of heating stations - both domestic and industrial.

In addition, Armor is effectively used to protect against negative effects external factors environment. This point should be considered in more detail.

1. The substance can be used as hydro- and thermal insulation under concrete screed.
2. It can also be used as a protective layer for open-air structures and external wall surfaces.
3. Finally, Armor is often used as insulation for metal structures of buildings, due to which the possibility of condensation forming on them is reduced to zero.

How to apply thermal insulation paint yourself

As noted above, Bronya thermal insulation can be applied using a sprayer or a regular brush. During the first pass, a protective layer 1 millimeter thick is laid on the treated surface. This is explained not only by the fact that the most rational consumption of the substance will be ensured, but also by the fact that various kinds of layers will not appear.

Note! On average, the operating temperature range ranges from -35 degrees to +150 degrees, although a more specific figure depends on what type of Armor you are using.

Immediately before use, the material is mixed directly in a plastic bucket. In order to achieve the required consistency, a small amount of distilled water is added (this is indicated in the manufacturer's instructions).

As a conclusion. The effect of the material from the point of view of thermal physics

First of all, we should tell you that thermal energy can be transmitted in three ways.

1. Convection is when heat is transferred with a liquid, gas or granular medium due to the flow of the material itself.
2. Thermal conduction is when energy is transferred in a solid due to atomic and molecular kinetic energy to a cooler part of the object.
3. Thermal radiant radiation or, more simply, electromagnetic radiation. This radiation is emitted by the substance itself through its internal energy.

Thanks to the action of these laws, thermal equilibrium is ensured along the entire perimeter of the thermal system. And the quality insulation material in this case, it is determined by how and how effectively this equilibrium is blocked. Thermal insulation Armor is characterized by a complex multi-level structure, where each method of heat transfer is minimized.
