Granulhik
High Performance Aerogel Granules
Granulhik is a translucent, high-performance silica aerogel granule designed for applications requiring both superior thermal insulation and light transmission. Unlike fine powders, Granulhik features a larger, millimetric particle structure that allows for excellent light diffusion while blocking heat transfer.
It is the ideal filling material for daylighting systems (polycarbonate panels, architectural glass), creating energy-efficient buildings filled with natural soft light. Additionally, its robust granular structure makes it a perfect lightweight aggregate for high-performance insulation plasters and cavity wall insulation.

Key Benefits
-
Cryogenic Super Insulation: Superior performance in cold conditions (lambda ≤ 0.014 W/mK at -129°C) ensures maximum protection with minimum thickness.
-
Zero Permeability: Integrated aluminum foil ensures a water vapor transmission rate of 0.00 Perms, completely stopping moisture ingress and icing.
-
Corrosion Protection: Low chloride content (<10 ppm) and hydrophobic core prevent stress corrosion cracking in stainless steel pipes.
-
Lightweight: Low density (150 kg/m³) reduces the dead load on tanks and piping systems compared to traditional insulation.
-
Easy Installation: Supplied in Flexible Sheet form, allowing for quick application without the mess of cutting rolls.
Applications
-
LNG / LPG Facilities: Pipelines, valves, and storage tanks.
-
Liquid Gases: Liquid Nitrogen (LN₂), Liquid Oxygen (LOx), Argon lines.
-
Cold Chain: Pharmaceutical and food transport containers.
-
Industrial Cooling: Chiller lines and cooling towers.
