- FIG. 1 - Figure 1 illustrates a distribution of a cumulative frequency of a population of fiber lengths of a product according to one embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 2 schematically illustrates an installation for producing an insulating product according to one embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 3 illustrates the average integrated charge of the mineral fibers of a product according to one embodiment of the invention, blown.
- thermal performance factor c is meant the product of the thermal conductivity l, expressed in W.nr 1 .K 1 , and the density p of a product according to one embodiment of the invention blown, expressed in kg/ m3 .
- the thermal performance factor c is, in known manner, representative of the quantity of mineral wool to be blown to obtain a predetermined thermal resistance R on a wall. Indeed, considering a surface S to be insulated by a coating of mass m and volume V, the thermal performance factor c is equal to the ratio between, on the one hand, the mass m and between, on the other hand, the product of the thermal resistance R and the area S.
- the thermal performance of mineral wool can be determined by the product of the predetermined thermal resistance R and the thermal performance factor X-
- blowing of a mineral wool is meant a blowing defined by standard EN 14064-1:2007, and preferably defined by the document "Cahier Technique 8, Preparation of test specimens for bulk products, Revision index C, date of application: 01/07/2019, ACERMI”, referring to appendix C.2.1 of standard EN 14064-1:2007.
- the thermal conductivity is measured according to the measurement defined in the document "Cahier Technique 8, Preparation of test specimens for bulk products, Revision index C, date of application: 07/01/2019, ACERMI", referring to standard EN 14064-1:2007.
- density of a mineral wool is understood to mean the mass of mineral wool measured in a container filled with the mineral wool, divided by the volume of the container. In the case of a mineral wool packaged in a bag enabling the mineral wool to be transported, the density of the mineral wool is equal to the ratio between the mass of the mineral wool compressed in the bag and between the volume of the bag.
- the fineness of the mineral wool fibers is determined by the value of their micronaire, under 5 g.
- the micronaire also called “fineness index”, is representative of the specific surface of the fibres.
- the measurement of the micronaire includes a measurement of the aerodynamic pressure drop when a given quantity of fibers extracted from the product is subjected to a given pressure of a gas, in general air or nitrogen. This measurement is usual in mineral fiber production units, it is standardized (DIN 53941 or ASTM D 1448 standards) and it uses a device called a “micronaire device”.
- the micronaire measurement method is also described in document WO 2003098209.
- the mineral wool is glass wool, preferably in bulk.
- Mineral wool includes mineral fibers.
- the glass wool comprises in known manner glass fibers.
- Mineral fibers can be produced by melting an inorganic raw material, preferably glass, stone, and/or slag. Mineral wool is suitable for being blown.
- the mineral fibers can be produced by melting a glass having:
- B 2 O 3 a mass content of B 2 O 3 comprised between 0% and 10%, in particular comprised between 2% and 8%, preferentially comprised between 3% and 6%, and more preferentially comprised between 3.5% and 5%; and or
- the product includes at least one additive.
- the product has a mass content of all of the additive(s) comprised between 0.4% and 1.2% inclusive, in particular comprised between 0.6% and 1% inclusive and preferably comprised between 0.7 and 0.9% inclusive .
- the product has a micronaire of between 4 L/min and 9 L/min, in particular between 5 L/min and 8 L/min and preferentially between 6 L/min and 7.5 L/min.
- the inventors have discovered that, due to the combination between the level of additive(s) previously defined and the micronaire of the product previously defined, it was possible to specifically minimize the radiative heat transfer of a coating formed by the blown product, for a predetermined quantity of blown product, while limiting the emission of dust during the blowing of the product, by the mass content of additives of the product.
- the capacity to break fine fibers of a product having the defined micronaire, and thus to emit dust is compensated by the rate of additive(s) of the product, while minimizing, for the defined ranges, the thermal conductivity of the coating formed by the blown product.
- Some or all of the additive(s) may be organic.
- the mass content of all of the additive(s) can be determined by measuring the loss on ignition, in accordance with the ISO 1887:2014 standard.
- the insulation product may have a binder mass content of less than 0.1%.
- the insulation product may be devoid of binder, and have a mass content of zero binder.
- traces of binder may be present, in particular when the product is manufactured by recycling glass wool comprising a binder.
- an installation for producing the insulating product may include a fiber-drawing unit, in which the mineral fibers are produced.
- the fiber drawing unit may comprise a centrifugation device 1 configured to rotate along a vertical axis X.
- the centrifugation device 1 has a peripheral band.
- the peripheral strip is pierced with a plurality of orifices, through which the molten raw material can flow from the inside of the centrifugation device to the outside, forming filaments of molten raw material.
- the drawing unit can also comprise a burner 2.
- the burner 2 can have an annular shape and be arranged so as to impose a gas flow at a controlled temperature at the outlet of the orifices.
- Burner 2 is used to stretch the filaments coming out of the orifices, so as to form the mineral fibers.
- An annular inductor 3 can be arranged below the centrifugation device. The annular inductor 3 makes it possible to heat a lower part of the centrifugation device 1, in particular the plate. A veil 4 of mineral fibers is thus formed. A reception mat 5 for the mineral fibers can be arranged under the centrifugation device 1.
- Burner 2 is configured so that the temperature of the gas jet leaving burner 2 is between 1300°C and 1500°C, preferably around 1400°C.
- the pressure variation of burner 2, driving the gas jet makes it possible to control the fineness of the fibres: a lower pressure of burner 2 can lead to a larger fiber diameter.
- the inventors have discovered that it is possible to significantly increase the proportion of long mineral fibers among all the mineral fibers produced, in the proportions described above, by reducing the quantity of movement transmitted by the burner 2 to the filaments in exit from the orifices with regard to the known transmitted momentum.
- the speed of rotation of the centrifugation device 1 can be between 1600 revolutions per minute and 3000 revolutions per minute, in particular between 2400 revolutions per minute and 3000 revolutions per minute.
- the tangential speed of the orifices, during the rotation of the centrifugation device 1, can be between 50 m/s and 80 m/s, and preferably between 57 m/s and 75 m/s.
- the length of the fibers can be increased by increasing the amount of movement given to the fibers from the outlet of the orifice.
- the quantity of movement imparted to the fibers by the burner may be concomitant with mechanical stresses undergone by the fibers driven by fluid turbulence, downstream of the burner. These stresses can lead to fiber breakage.
- the tangential speed of the orifices makes it possible to provide a sufficient quantity of movement to the fibers while reducing the mechanical stresses undergone by the fibers in a turbulent fluidic environment.
- the fiber pull per orifice of one plate per day is equal to the flow rate of molten raw material passing through each orifice per day.
- the pull of fibers per orifice of one dish per day can be between 0.30 kg/day and 0.8 kg/day, in particular between 0.4 kg/day and 0.7 kg/day.

- the solvent may comprise a mixture of distilled water and glycerine, for example in a 500:1 proportion, and/or comprise a surfactant.
- the sample is stirred using a laboratory stirrer between 30 minutes and 2 hours, which results in a dispersion of the fibers in the solvent.
- the fiber dispersion is then diluted in distilled water at a ratio of 1:3 to 1:20.
- the diluted fiber dispersion is then deposited on a substrate, for example on the bottom of a Petri dish.
- the fibers included in the dispersion are then imaged by a microscope equipped with an objective whose magnification is for example equal to 20X, 40X or 90X, or by any other imaging system (camera, scanner) making it possible to observe the fibers. at a sufficient resolution to appreciate their length.
- Image processing is then implemented. In each of the images, the groupings of pixels of less than a few pixels or whose eccentricity is less than 0.5, that is to say particles of roughly circular shape, are not considered.
- Skeletonization is then applied to each of the images, so as to obtain the median axis of the fibers. Finally, a score function is then used to evaluate the probability that two fiber segments belong to the same fiber. The score function is also used to reconstruct the fibers that were broken into fiber segments during the thresholding step.
