Abstract

Insulation systems must have a number of special properties when used on construction sites located in the zone of significant negative temperatures, wind load, and associated air filtration through building struc-tures, under the influence of the coastal environment that forms salts on tech-nical facilities associated with the production and transportation of petro-leum products. Firstly, high operational stability, including under the influ-ence of aggressive environments. Secondly, they must be non-flammable and have significant fire resistance limits. Thirdly, do not contain compo-nents that are toxic during normal operation or are released in the event of a fire. The analysis of possibilities has shown that products based on stone wool meet these requirements to the greatest extent as a thermal insulation material. The research presented in the article is based on a hypothesis about the use of products based on stone wool and epoxy binder on latent hardeners, which will allow us to obtain an energy-efficient material that fully meets the conditions of polar construction. The purpose of the research was to develop a method for selecting the parameters of manufacturing mineral wool products that affect the properties of mineral wool slabs to the greatest extent and to opti-mize the temperature of heat treatment of mineral wool carpet. Re-search methodology set out in the article is based on the method of mathematical planning of experiment and statistical processing of the results, followed by analytical optimization.
