Polyurethane or polyisocyanurate foam laminate with aluminum facer and brominated primer layer
An article contains a polyurethane or polyisocyanurate foam having a primary surface, an aluminum facer covering, and a primer layer between and attached to the primary surface of the foam and the aluminum facer; wherein the article is characterized by: (a) the primer layer having a concentration of bromine in said primer layer, comprising a primer component and a brominated component, where the primer component and brominated component are the same or different components; (b) the primer layer is free of chlorinated components; and (c) an absence of fibers in the form of fiber mats, fiber fabrics and dispersed fibers between the polyurethane or polyisocyanurate foam and the facer. Such an article shows performance in a fire test equivalent to or better than a laminate article where the bromine is dispersed in the polyurethane or polyisocyanurate foam, at lower total bromine content.
System for installing insulation sleeves on pipelines
Systems and methods include a system for installing insulation sleeves on pipelines. A portable welding robot is configured to weld a plug base longitudinally along a top edge of a pipeline. The plug base supports plugs configured to engage with holes in both overlapping sides of an insulation sleeve configured to insulate the pipeline. A portable pipeline insulation installation fixture is configured to lift the insulation sleeve and install the insulation sleeve around the pipeline including using electric hoists to lift ends of strands beneath and on either side of the pipeline. Each strand is enclosed in an external tube configured to contact and roll along the insulation sleeve and to rotate relative to the strand. The external tubes are configured to wrap the insulation sleeve around the pipeline.
