ACS Industrial & Marine Ceramic Insulation Coating (ACS CIC) works by blocking radiant heat transfer on surfaces up to 200 degrees C. Dense concentrations of hollow ceramic micro-beads in acrylic latex binder are spray-applied in layers that diffuse and block heat transfer in a manner comparable to thin oxide coatings on Low-E glass.
ACS CIC is used for blocking solar heat loading on exterior walls or roofs, for saving energy on heated equipment or building envelopes and to control condensation on cold surfaces. ACS CIC is applied in thin layers of 500 um (0.5mm) for solar heat load reduction and up to 3,500 um for heat retention or personnel protection on 200 degrees C surfaces.
ACS CIC resists UV and working conditions that ruin traditional insulation materials. Its thin layers allow visual inspection and also block moisture from surfaces to protect against corrosion.
Ceramic insulation coatings have been used for decades within industries around the world in conditions where traditional materials fail. Proven thermal performance is documented and available for review.
While reducing application cost based on spray application, especially on complex surfaces, ACS CIC
provides durable, long-term protection that can also be walked on when used on tank roofs or other exposed areas without damaging the surface, or impacting its overall thermal efficiency.
