Significance and Use4.1 This standard is intended to be used by engineers anddesigners as a guide to assist them in selecting appropriatethermal insulation jacketing materials. As a guide, it can beused to identify performance characteristics that might
21、 benecessary for a particular insulation jacketing system. Thisguide is not a specification and therefore should not be used assuch. It might, however, be useful in writing a specification.Specification C 921 can also be used to determine properties ofjacketing materials for thermal insulation.5. Ma
22、terials and Manufacture5.1 Jacketing materials may be composed of a single mate-rial or a lamination of several components. The material maybe in the form of rolls or sheets or preformed to fit the surfaceto which they are to be applied. The materials may be appliedin the field or may be a factory-a
23、pplied composite with theinsulation.5.2 Metallic:5.2.1 Metallic jacketing materials are those whose primarymaterial (usually the component of greatest thickness) is metal,such as, aluminum, steel, and stainless steel. The metal may besmooth, corrugated, or embossed. The dimensions of corruga-tions (
24、pitch and depth) may be specified by the purchaser forinterchangeability, constant rigidity, and control of sizes. Theinner surface of metallic jacketing materials may be coated orcovered with a moisture resistant film to retard possiblegalvanic and/or chemical corrosion of the jacketing.5.2.1.1 Alu
25、minum jacketing materials can be manufacturedfrom Specification B 209, Type 3003, 3004, 3105, 5005, 5010,5020, or 1100 aluminum, temper ranges from H14 (half hard)through H19 (full hard). Where ambient conditions are severe,the outer surface of the aluminum may be coated whenspecified. Thicknesses g
26、enerally available are from 0.006 to0.040 in. (0.15 to 1.02 mm).5.2.1.2 Steel jacketing materials can be manufactured fromSpecification A 366/A 366M, Type 1010, 1015, or 1020 steel.The outer surface is typically protected by aluminizing, galva-nizing, or coating with plastic film or enamel to retard
27、 exteriorcorrosion, or a combination thereof. Metal thicknesses gener-ally available are from 0.010 to 0.019 in. (0.25 to 0.46 mm).5.2.1.3 Stainless steel jacketing materials can be manufac-tured from Specification A 240/A 240M, Type 301, 302, 303,304, or 316 stainless steel, hardness B85 (soft anne
28、aled).Thicknesses generally available are from 0.010 to 0.019 in.(0.25 to 0.46 mm).5.3 Nonmetallic and Laminated Jacketing:5.3.1 Laminated jacketing materials are typically manufac-tured from combinations of plastic films, plastic composites,metallic foils, reinforcing fabrics, papers, or felts sele
29、cted toobtain the required performance characteristics. For flexiblelow permeance vapor retarders, see Specification C 1136.5.3.2 Textile or cloth jacketing materials are woven orknitted of textile yarns. Commonly available forms are 4, 6, or8 oz/yd2(0.14, 0.20, or 0.27 kg/m2) cotton canvas, various
30、weaves of glass fiber yarns, presized glass cloth, knit, or wovenplastic fibers.5.3.3 Plastic jacketing materials are manufactured in vari-ous forms and types. Thicknesses generally available are from0.003 to 0.035 in. (0.08 to 0.89 mm). Various materials can beused such as poly-vital chloride (PVC)
31、, CPVS, fiberglassreinforced plastic (FRP), and others.5.3.4 Saturated felt or cloth jacketing materials are manu-factured from various base felts or cloths that have beenimpregnated with bitumen or resinous materials. Examples:Glass fiber, polyester fiber, polyolefin fiber. This definitiondoes not
32、include tar paper, asphalt paper, or other paperboardmaterials or other products, such as rag felt, that are made outof waste and they do not represent a continuous and resistantbase for a jacketing.6. Physical and Chemical Performance Considerations6.1 This section includes a number of performance
33、issuesthat should be considered when using this guide to select ajacketing material for thermal insulation. Some may not beapplicable to the particular application. However, to be certainnone are overlooked, the user should consider all materialsinitially and then eliminate those that are not applic
34、able.6.2 Abuse ResistanceConsideration should be given to theability of a jacketing material to withstand a variety of physicalconditions in excess of required functional design criteria.Prior to selection, consideration should be given to the ex-pected intensity and types of abuse as well as the le
35、ngth of timethe jacketing material is expected to withstand a given level ofabuse.6.2.1 Abuse May Include the Following Factors:C 1423 98 (2003)26.2.1.1 Foot traffcWill people or equipment be applyingloads directly on the jacketing material such as when piping isused like a ladder?6.2.1.2 Impact Res
36、istanceIs the jacketing material locatedwhere there is a probability of it being routinely struck byfalling tools or other objects or being hit by traffic moving by?6.2.1.3 System MaintenanceDoes the system that thejacketing material is on require maintenance at regular inter-vals that would require
37、 the removal and reinstallation of thejacketing material?6.2.1.4 Puncture ResistanceIs the jacketing material eas-ily punctured? See 9.1.2.6.3 Weather ResistanceConsideration should be given tothe ability of a jacketing system to be exposed outdoorswithout a significant loss of properties. Factors t
38、o consider inselection of the jacketing materials, that comprise the jacketingsystem, are the following.6.3.1 Possible effects of precipitation, including rain, snow,sleet, hail, frost, and dew as appropriate for the use area.6.3.2 Possible effect of ultra violet radiation from sunlight.6.3.3 Maximu
39、m wind velocity.6.3.4 Possibility of abrasion caused by blowing sand or salt.6.3.5 Possible effect of high humidity or fog.6.4 Water Vapor Transmission (Vapor RetardingCapability)Consideration should be given to the ability of ajacketing material to inhibit transport of water vapor through it.Some f
40、actors to consider are the following.6.4.1 Water vapor tends to travel from areas of high vaporpressure to areas of low vapor pressure. See 9.1.1.6.4.2 Water in insulation tends to reduce its efficiency.Therefore, if the system constantly runs above ambient it maybe appropriate that the jacketing ma
41、terial or system will allowwater vapor transmission. If the system constantly runs belowambient then the jacketing material and system should retardthe ingress of water vapor.6.4.3 If a jacketing system is being used as a water vaportransmission retarder, particular care must be paid to thejacketing
42、 materials system of attachment so that any screwholes or other penetrations are vapor sealed. Vapor sealing ofjacketing and butt joints must be thorough. In general, anypenetrations or areas of discontinuity of the jacketing materialmust be vapor sealed to retard intrusion of ambient moisturevapor.
43、6.5 External Corrosion ResistanceConsideration shouldbe given to whether corrosive chemicals might be presentaround the insulation jacketing system. Many types of corro-sive atmospheres or corrosive chemical spills can corrodecertain jacketing materials compromising insulation systemperformance.6.6
44、Internal Corrosion ResistanceThere are several typesof internal corrosion. One is an electrical reaction that resultsfrom electrolysis between the metallic surface to be insulatedand the inner metallic surface of the jacketing. The second is achemical reaction between two dissimilar metals. With the
45、insulation otherwise in direct contact with the jacketing and thepresence of internal moisture in the insulation, considerationshould be given to provide a suitable protective barrier on thejackets interior surface to retard such corrosion. A third is achemical reaction, that takes place in the pres
46、ence of water thathas condensed from moisture in the air, between a metal jacketand chemicals leached out of the insulation. See 9.1.14.6.7 Fungal ResistanceConsideration should be given tothe ability of a material to be exposed continuously to dampconditions without the growth of mildew or mold. Se
47、e 9.1.6.6.8 ReusabilityConsideration should be given to the easewith which the jacketing material may be removed andreinstalled in its original condition.6.9 AestheticsConsideration should be given to the gen-eral outward appearance of the jacketing material such that itharmonizes with the other fac
48、ilities in the area or the environ-ment.6.10 Color IdentificationConsideration should be given tothe color of the jacketing materials for the purpose of identi-fying the fluid content, the temperature, or both, of each systembeing insulated.6.11 Surface EmittanceConsideration should be given tothe o
49、uter surface emittance, of the system being insulated, forthe purpose of lowering surface temperatures for personnelprotection. See Section 9.1.11.6.12 Surface Burning CharacteristicsConsiderationshould be given to the jacketing exterior surface burningcharacteristics presented by Flame Spread/Smoke DevelopedIndices per Test Method E 84 for the selection of the jacketing.The purposes are generally to determine a comparative surfaceburning behavior of the jacket and to meet building codes thatmaintain specific, not to exceed, index requirements.
