There are many different materials to produce thermal break strips, such as PA66 GF25%, ASA, ABS, PVC. Among them, polyamide material is the most popular material for thermal break. Thermal insulating profiles made of polyamide PA 66 GF25% (25% glass fiber reinforced polyamide) have significant advantages.
The coefficient of linear thermal expansion (linear elongation coefficient) of the polyamide profiles is equivalent to the aluminum profile. Therefore, the polyamide profile is not subjected to internal stresses after it is pressed to aluminum profile. This is one of the most important advantages of using the polyamide material as a thermal barrier.
Secondly, the deflection temperature of the polyamide profiles under load is high. Even at 200° C for about 15 minutes, no deformation occurs. Therefore, it can easily be heated in the ovens at the powder coating process.
Thirdly, polyamide profiles do not emit toxic gases in case of fire. They are environmentally friendly.
In addition, dimensional stability and resistance to chemicals of polyamide thermal barriers are high.
The polyamide strip is a material of low thermal conductivity which will minimise the transfer of heat and cold through the window frame, resulting in improved energy efficiency. The polyamide strip will have a HUGE impact in reducing transfer of heat and cold over typical non-thermal profiles. These sections can be anodized or powder coated to withstand the harsh climate, including UV damage and salt corrosion.
The wider the thermal break, the greater insulation performance .
Thermally Broken windows are a major contribution to sustainable and eco-friendly homes. They help to save money, energy and support the environment.
It is mainly used in insulation broken bridge aluminium products, helping to reduce heat loss or heat gain through the aluminum, and has better performance in terms of power usage.
