| New Innovation in Insulation |

Page 1 of 2 1 Since it’s inception, insulation has traditionally been a static industry with limited innovative advancements to the design approach of the products available. Yet as the world advances in its understanding and builds upon its foundation of technology, ingenuity has come to address this fundamental building necessity known as insulation.
Nansulate (www.nansulate.com) is an internationally patented product line branded under the registration of a company called Industrial Nanotech, Inc. (www.industrial-nanotech.com). This particular brand of insulation utilizes materials with characteristics that work on the nano-scale and can effectively be considered as a product of nanotechnology. Building upon a non-toxic, non-hazardous, water-based foundation, Nansulate can be painted, air-sprayed, or otherwise applied onto almost any conceivable surface area. Recommended by the company to be applied in three coats for the most efficient application, the thickness of the outcome is an ultra-thin film that measures 3-5 wet mils per coat (15 mils < 1/32 inch thick). Yet apart from its unique thickness, which in itself vastly distinguishes the product from comparable insulation alternatives, Nansulate retains several unique characteristics:
1) Translucent appearance 2) Hydrophobic properties 3) Encapsulation capacity
As a result of these properties, Nansulate is able to address several critical areas of home improvement under a single product which include:
1) Superior Insulation (described below) 2) Corrosion Protection 3) Mold Resistance 4) Lead Abatement 5) Chemical Resistance |
