INSULATION FORINSULATION FORTHE FIRST LINE OF

DEFENSE

Ceramics are known to be an excellentnon-conductor of heat, as shown in this

picture from a National Geographicmagazine article.

Here the center of the ceramic cubeglows with a interior temperature of

2200 f. degrees yet can be safelyhandled by a bare hand

These remarkable tiles are only 7%solids and 93% void. These hollowcenters also contains a completevacuum. It is the vacuum center

that creates the incredibleTHERMAL BLANKET .

During the 1970’s, General IndustriesCorp., a specialty chemical

development company located inColorado Springs, Rohm and Haas,

the worlds leading supplier ofresin’s and polymers and the 3-M

Company, who provided thevacuumed ceramic micro-spheres.

They spent 7 years of trial anddevelopment to put this scienceinto a system that would perform

under some of the toughestconditions on the planet, and inthe conditions that are the mostimportant to you, your individual

project.

Space Shuttle technologyengineered into a very effective

system of coatings to meetresidential, commercial,

agricultural, and industrialrequirements.

Vacuumed ceramic micro-spheresin a pure acrylic resin base withunique polymers that hold the

spheres in fluid suspension, untilapplied, forming a seamless,

flexible, long lasting, effective

THE ELASTOMERIC RESIN FORMS ASEAMLESS AND ELASTIC MEMBRANE, ANDPROVIDES WATERPROOFING ANDRESISTANCE TO NATURE’S BREAK-DOWN

THE FILLERS ARE VACUUM CERAMICMICROSPHERES THAT REFLECT ANDDISSIPATE HEAT

TRADITIONALINSULATION IS A CURE

FOR A PROBLEM THAT ISALREADY THERE,

“HEAT”

THERE IS A NEW METHODAVAILABLE,

“PREVENTION”, TOSTOP SOLAR ENERGY

FROM BECOMING A HEATPROBLEM

SOLAR ENERGY IS NOTHOT, IT TURNS INTO

HEAT WHEN IT ISABSORBED BY A

SURFACE

IF WE REFLECT SOLARRADIATION AWAY, ITWOULD NEVER TURN

INTO HEAT TO BECOMEA PROBLEM

WHEN HEAT DEVELOPESIN A SURFACE, IT CAN BE

ABSORBED INTO THESTRUCTURE OR, IT CAN

BE RADIATED BACK INTOTHE ATMOSPHERE AS

INFRARED ENERGYTHROUGH “EMITTANCE”

WHEN YOU HAVE ASURFACE WITH HIGH
