Knauf Type KN Series with ECOSE® Technology

Description

Knauf KN Series Insulation with ECOSE Technology is an amber blanket of glass fibers bonded with ECOSE Technology.

ECOSE Technology

ECOSE Technology is a revolutionary new binder chemistry that makes Knauf Insulation products even more sustainable than ever. It is based on rapidly renewable bio-based materials rather than non-renewable petroleum-based chemicals traditionally used in fiberglass insulation products. ECOSE Technology reduces binder embodied energy and does not contain phenol, formaldehyde, acrylics or artificial colors.

Packaging

KN Series Insulation is placed in a poly bag, vacuum packaged and slipped into a poly sleeve. The end of the bag is closed with a plastic tie.

Applications

Knauf KN Series products with ECOSE Technology are used as thermal and/or acoustical insulation in the appliance, equipment, industrial, commercial and marine markets up to 650°F (271°C).

Fiber Glass and Mold

Fiber glass insulation will not sustain mold growth. However, mold can grow on almost any material when it becomes wet and contaminated. Carefully inspect any insulation that has been exposed to water. If it shows any sign of mold it must be discarded. If the material is wet but shows no evidence of mold, it should be dried rapidly and thoroughly. If it shows signs of facing degradation from wetting, it should be replaced.

Notes

The chemical and physical properties of Knauf KN Series with ECOSE Technology represent typical average values determined in accordance with accepted test methods. The data is subject to normal variations. The data is supplied as a technical service and is subject to change without notice. References to numerical flame spread ratings are not intended to reflect hazards presented by these, or any other material under actual fire conditions.
