Microporous Insulation in India – High-Temperature Industrial Thermal Solutions
DARQ provides advanced microporous insulation solutions engineered for high-temperature industrial applications across India. Designed for furnaces, petrochemical units, power plants, pipelines, OEM systems, and energy infrastructure, microporous insulation delivers ultra-low thermal conductivity while significantly reducing insulation thickness compared to conventional materials.
Our engineered microporous systems are used where space efficiency, fire resistance, and thermal performance are critical.
What is Microporous Insulation?
Microporous insulation is a high-performance thermal insulation material manufactured using fumed silica and infrared opacifiers in a controlled microstructure. The material contains pores smaller than the mean free path of air molecules, resulting in extremely low thermal conductivity.
With thermal conductivity values as low as 0.021–0.034 W/m·K (temperature dependent), microporous insulation outperforms traditional materials such as calcium silicate, ceramic fiber, and mineral wool in high-temperature applications.
Key Advantages of Microporous Insulation
Ultra-Low Thermal Conductivity
Provides superior heat resistance compared to conventional insulation materials.
Reduced Insulation Thickness
Allows compact system design — ideal for space-constrained industrial equipment.
High-Temperature Resistance
Suitable for applications up to 1000°C and beyond (grade dependent).
Non-Combustible & Fire Resistant
Classified for high-temperature safety applications.
Lower Heat Storage
Improves energy efficiency and reduces thermal cycling stress.
