VACUUM INSULATION MATERIAL OPTIM-R: THE FUTURE OF THERMAL INSULATION AND COMPARISON WITH STYROFOAM
The lack of energy, environmental pollution, and climate change caused by excessive and irrational energy consumption, as well as the constant rise in energy prices, are causes for concern and incentives to address this problem, all while preserving the environment.
Energy from renewable sources is significantly cheaper compared to energy from non-renewable sources. This paper analyzes the properties of Styrofoam and vacuum insulation material OPTIM-R with the aim of demonstrating that newer generation materials with extremely small dimensions can be more efficient than standard materials that have traditionally been used for insulation. The use of materials that are not harmful to the environment is preferred, as they prevent the emission of harmful gases and have a much longer lifespan compared to existing materials.
KEY WORDS: Energy efficiency, insulation materials, environment, energy
