VERMICULITE PRODUCTS

The scientific and manufacturing enterprise “UkrVermiculit” manufactures exfoliated vermiculite and fire- resistant thermal insulating vermiculite-based boards. The manufacturing capacities of the enterprise are located in the town of Vasylkiv, 30 kilometers outside Kyiv.

Exfoliated vermiculite is an environmentally friendly loose granular material. It possesses high fire-resistance properties (up to 1,350 degrees Celsius) and low thermal conductivity properties (from 0.07 watt per meter-Kelvin). It is chemically and biologically inert and is not wetted by molten metal. It is also a good absorbent.

Spheres of application:

METALLURGY — lining of furnaces and steel-pouring ladles;

ENERGY CONSERVATION — thermal insulation of all types of power-generating equipment, facilities, vibrating surfaces;

CONSTRUCTION — a filler for lightweight concretes, plasters and mixes, fire-resistant layers and coatings, thermal and sound insulating filler for hollow cavities, a component used in the manufacturing of roofing felt;

AGRICULTURE AND FLORICULTURE - a component used to improve the structure and properties of soils, a filler for fertilizers, a stabilizer of air humidity; used in the storage of fruit and vegetables and as a supplement for poultry and cattle fodder;

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION — used in sewerage and emission purification systems, used in the cleanup of petroleum spills and transportation of hazardous chemical liquids.

Exfoliated vermiculite is manufactured with the density ranging from 80 to 130 kilograms per cubic meter and micron, super fine, fine, medium and large grain sizes.

Vermiculite boards — an inflammable, environmentally friendly asbestos-free material that does not contain fibers, organic  components or alkaline  admixtures. The  boards  have  an unlimited service life and are chemically neutral, nontoxic, and biologically stable. The boards do not emit toxic substances hazardous  for humans or the environment. The boards posses high fire resistance, sound insulation, and thermal  insulation  properties. The   boards are mass produced  with sizes of 1,000 by 1,980 millimeters or 600 by 1,800 millimeters, thickness ranging between  10 and 100 millimeters, and density from 350 to 850 kilograms per cubic meter. The vermiculite material can be easily machined with ordinary tools, installed using standard fasteners or high-temperature glue. The surface of vermiculite boards can be easily painted with any kind of paint or coated with metal or decorative plastic.

Spheres of application:

FIRE SAFETY—increasing the fire resistance of metal and wooden structures, air vents, shafts, and partitions;

CONSTRUCTION — a filler for fire-resistant doors, a construction material for fire dampers and ventilation systems;

HEAT ENGINEERING — thermal insulation of high- temperature equipment;

SHIPBUILDING — manufacturing of fire-resistant furniture, increasing the fire resistance of decks, cabins, and partitions.
