Duocoat® TM Thermal Marine insulating coating
Duocoat® TM thermal insulating coating / condense blocking coating is a sprayable insulation coating specially developed for applications in the maritime industry.
Duocoat® TM provides a thermal insulation layer, comparable with conventional fibre or foam insulations at a fraction of the usual thickness.
This is made possible due to the combined insulating qualities of the Duocoat® TM . Our insulation coatings combine insulation against heat transfer through Conduction, Convection and Radiation. This opposed to conventional insulation that basically only insulates based on retarding the conduction of energy.
Therefore the commonly used R- or K-values are always based solely on the conductive capacity of a material.
Seeing the fact that infrared radiation is the source of every heatflow, Duomar® has designed a line of insulating coatings that combines all three aspects of heattransfer in one insulating coating.
This is based on the chemical and physical composition of the coating and its fillers and not on lightwave reflection of a light coloured surface as many other claimed insulating coatings do.
Applications
Duocoat® TM is used in the maritime industry to offer thermal insulation and prevention of condensation in : Luxury Yachts, Cruise Ships, Naval Vessels, Commercial Ships and Off Shore applications.
Duocoat® TM can be applied as a stand alone insulation coating, or can be used in combination with other insulation materials to obtain a fire rating or to provide acoustic absorption.
Another advantage of Duocoat® TM is the seamless application that adheres directly to the substrate, thus preventing the occurrence of condensation under insulation. Besides the insulation advantage this provides, it also protects the construction against corrosion under insulation.
