Product catalog summary
Product Description
va-Q-vip is a microporous insulation material made from fumed silica powder, notable for its rectangular edges and corners, allowing seamless joining of elements. It is primarily used in hot water tanks, logistics, and the automotive sector.

Features
  • Thinner insulation material increases usable space.
  • Patented va-Q-seam technology ensures smooth edges without foil overlaps.
  • Optimized panel design enhances durability.
  • 100% quality control via patented gas pressure measurement system (va-Q-check).
  • Recyclable core material makes it sustainable.

Properties
  • Thermal conductivity: ≤ 0.0053 W/(m∙K) at delivery, ventilated at 0.020 W/(m∙K).
  • U-Value: 0.22 W/(m²∙K) for 20 mm thickness.
  • Internal gas pressure: ≤ 5 mbar at delivery.
  • Density: 180 – 210 kg/m³ for thickness > 20 mm; 180 – 250 kg/m³ for thickness ≤ 20 mm.
  • Temperature resistance: -75 – 100 °C, temporarily up to 130 °C.
  • Moisture resistance: 0 – 70% relative humidity up to 50 °C.
  • Specific heat capacity: 0.8 – 1.0 kJ/(kg∙K) at room temperature.
  • Lifetime: Up to 60 years depending on usage.
  • Available thickness: 5 – 50 mm in 5 mm increments.

Testing Standards
  • Accelerated aging tests at 50 °C, 70% relative humidity, and 80 °C (dry).
  • Thermal conductivity measurements according to DIN EN 12667.
  • Long-term monitoring at room conditions.
  • Measurement of thermal bridge effect (Ѱ-value).

Measures and Tolerances
Dimensions and tolerances vary based on size, with specific tolerances for lengths, widths, and thicknesses.

Technical Data Sheet va-Q-vip Product Description va-Q-vip is a microporous insulation material based on fumed silica powder. va-Q-vip elements are unique because of their rectangular edges and corners (va-Q-seam) whereas individual elements can be joined together almost seamlessly. In general rectangular panels are produced but various shapes (trapeze, triangle, corner section) are possible on request. The powdered core material ensures the outstanding insulation ability for the entire service life of the product. The typical fields of application are hot water tanks, logistics (cool boxes, etc.) and the automotive sector. Enhanced usable room area due to thinner insulation material Smooth edges and no foil overlaps due to patented va-Q-seam technology Long durability due to optimized panel design 100 % quality control with the patented gas pressure measurement system (va-Q-check) Sustainable product (recyclable core material)
