Brief: Get an inside view of features that deliver consistent results in daily use. This video showcases how Fire Resistant Rock Wool Boards are engineered for transportation safety, demonstrating their non-combustible properties, low smoke toxicity, and high-temperature resistance in real-world applications like trains, subways, and buses. See how they meet strict standards like EN 45545 and GB/T 24430 to protect passenger lives and vehicle structures.
Related Product Features:
  • Class A non-combustible material that does not burn or produce flames, with a softening point over 700°C.
  • Low smoke and toxicity release, emitting only harmless water vapor and CO₂ with a smoke density rating below 15.
  • Maintains structural integrity at 600-800°C without melting or dripping, slowing vehicle frame deformation.
  • Available in densities from 80-150kg/m³ and thicknesses from 5-50mm for versatile application needs.
  • Excellent sound insulation reduces noise in high-speed trains to below 65 decibels.
  • Hydrophobic versions with ≥98% water resistance prevent mold growth in moist tunnel environments.
  • Lightweight options (1.2-1.4kg/m²) balance fire protection with aging resistance for bus interiors.
  • Made from natural volcanic rocks like basalt and diabase, ensuring recyclability and environmental safety.
FAQs:
  • What fire safety standards does this rock wool board comply with?
    It meets strict transportation industry standards including the European Union's EN 45545 and China's GB/T 24430, along with Class A non-combustibility per GB 8624-2012.
  • How does rock wool board perform in terms of smoke and toxicity during a fire?
    When exposed to high temperatures, it releases only minimal harmless water vapor and carbon dioxide, with no toxic gases like formaldehyde or cyanides, and maintains a smoke density rating below 15 to ensure clear visibility and safe breathing.
  • What are the typical applications in different transportation vehicles?
    In trains, it's used in carriage walls, ceilings, and seats; in subways, for floor interlayers and door seals; and in buses, for interior panels and luggage compartments, each tailored for specific safety needs.
  • How does rock wool compare to other insulation materials like polystyrene or polyurethane?
    Rock wool offers superior fire resistance (Class A non-combustible), better sound insulation, higher temperature tolerance (-268°C to 650°C), and greater environmental friendliness compared to organic alternatives.
