Abstract

This article described the technical progress of the wall insulation organic materials and analyzed other relevant factors in recent years about the insulation materials policies changes and market changes. Through the above description and analysis, we presented new ideas of the future direction of development of organic insulation materials. Background In recent years, big fire moments remind the importance of fire safety all the time. The CCTV Building Fire in 2009, Shanghai Jiaozhou Road Fire in 2010 and Shijingshan Fire in 2013, let the public turn pale at the mention of a word about fire. These fires are all related to the wall insulation organic materials. In fact, it should be said that unqualified exterior wall thermal insulation materials and the lack of supervision measures led to a variety of fire accidents which can be avoided. Therefore, good flame retardant wall insulation organic materials and thermal insulation system are very important to reduce and prevent fire, and they are also fundamentally important ways to block and reduce the fire risk. At present, there are three kinds of wall insulation materials. The first type are the inorganic heat preservation materials, such as rock wool, glass wool, mineral slurry, etc., These materials belong to no combustible materials (class A fire), and there is no fire safety problems. The second type of wall insulation materials are composite materials, such as phenolic foam insulation materials, reaching flame retardant materials B1 level (fire). The third kind are the organic polymer insulation materials, such as molding benzene board (EPS), foaming benzene board (XPS), polyurethane (PU) . They belong to the combustible materials (B2 fire). This kind of material have the danger of fire. In our country the most widely used of wall insulation materials are the third class. Especially the EPS and XPS have good heat preservation performance, low price. And They are light and durable. But, this kind of materials have obvious disadvantages that they are so easy to burn, and release diffuse toxic or harmful gas in the combustion. Therefore, we should focus on hot spots about organic fire situation of wall insulation organic materials. Fire prevention progress of common wall insulation organic materials Polyurethane (PU) :
