Original Abstract

The properties of fibrous insulation materials are dependent on the type and kind of fibres from which they are composed. In the field of materials based on organic fibres, the fact must often be taken into account that the resulting material properties are affected not only by the choice of a suitable kind of fibres, but also by selecting a suitable type of fibres of one kind. The individual types and kinds of fibres are different not only in size but also in their structure. Some types of fibres are porous and have a significantly different behaviour from the inorganic fibres. The paper describes the results of research and the study of thermal-mechanical properties of insulating materials based on organic fibres with respect to the type and properties of raw fibres. Thermal insulation properties of mats made from organic fibres are depend mainly on the bulk density of the insulation and important role has the thickness and purity of this fibers. Based on these findings a combined dependence wa
