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.
