Use of foam materials derived from high internal phase emulsions for insulation

The application of polymer foam used for insulation purposes. These polymer foams through the aggregate has a relatively high ratio of water/oil, this area is often called Gao Neixiang lotion or "HIPEs" oil emulsion to create the package. Used in this invention is derived from the HIPE foam consists of a normally hydrophobic, flexible, semi-flexible or rigid with mutual connectivity of opening non-ionic polymer foam structure. The foam structure: a) the surface area of each bubble size for at least 0.01m2/CC about; B) density is less than the 0.05g/CC; and c) glass transition temperature (Tg) of between-20 ° c to 90 ° c. The foam can be used as thermal, acoustic and/or mechanical isolation material. In an optimal implementation scenario, with a high density of foam can be in a compressed state of preparation, packaging and transport, and can be activated (such as heating), "resilience" to start to foam density.
