Vacuum insulation core

INSTILL(TM) Vacuum Insulation Core, developed by The Dow Chemical company, is a patented open cell, extruded polystyrene foam. Used as the core material in VIPs, it delivers 3 to 7 times the insulation capability of conventional systems. The INSTILL solution allows to produce VIPs at the lowest cost: the pressure necessary to reach the thermal performance (similar to 5 mW/m, degrees K) is higher than with other materials and therefore cheaper to achieve; pre-conditioning treatment is limited and contributes also to the lower cost of VIPs production. The application domain of INSTILL based VIPs is the one of low temperatures (negative temperature up to 70 degrees C) where only limited space is available: refrigerators, refrigerated trucks, isothermal boxes, building applications. The list is not exhaustive.
