Reflectec Fabric™
incorporates a NASA developed material capable of reflecting
97% radiant and 85 - 90% convective and conductive heat
which ensures constant, comfortable temperatures in
space suits. The material has also been used to protect
satellites, unmanned spacecraft, and the present space
shuttle fleet to guard their inner workings from the
extreme temperatures of space.
Reflectec Fabric™
can be incorporated into the design of virtually any
application seeking to decrease energy costs, reduce
stress, diminish heat fatigue, or enhance performance.
Reflectec Fabric™ provides
an improved lightweight insulation which is extremely
effective in terms of thermal protection of structures,
objects or individuals subjected singly or repeatedly
to higher heat fluxes.
The Reflectec Fabric™ provides
an improved lightweight insulation which is extremely
effective in terms of thermal protection of structures
or objects subjected singly or repeatedly to higher
heat fluxes.
The Reflectec Fabric™ has
high emissivity and resistance to a high heat flux and
thermal insulation capability up to 1200+ degrees Fahrenheit.
By combining fabrics, other materials and sewing
threads having high heat flux and emissivity, along
with a high break strength and a low density, the lightweight Reflectec
Fabric™ can be designed to have a personal or
commercially viable thermal insulation capability from
0 degrees C (32 degrees F) to 1200+ degrees Fahrenheit.
It provides flexible, durable, lightweight, high-temperature
resistant insulation suitable for repeated use.* Note:
All materials in MSR Industries products are made in
America by Americans.
*All MSR Industries products are
manufactured in Roanoke and Salem, VA.
Benefits •
Protection capabilities: The fabric has an effective
lower thermal conductivity and diffusion than state-of-the-art
insulation and thus is better able to protect substructures
from reaching a critical temperature.
• Better performance by weight: Ounce for ounce,
the fabric performs better than current thermal protection
materials.
• Can be waterproofed: The fabric can easily
and effectively be made waterproof.
