Descripción del proyecto
Adiós a los materiales aislantes obsoletos
Hay un modo de transformar la estructura de nuestros edificios para que sigan siendo frescos en verano y cálidos en invierno sin disparar la factura energética. El equipo del proyecto INNOVIP, financiado con fondos europeos, pretende dar a conocer una solución innovadora para cambiar la forma de aislar los edificios nuevos y los ya existentes. En concreto, su innovador enfoque lleva los paneles de aislamiento por vacío a cotas sin precedentes, mejorando su rendimiento térmico en un notable 25 % a lo largo de toda su vida útil. Estos innovadores paneles, que actualmente se utilizan en frigoríficos y congeladores, serán ajustables, montables y mecanizables para permitir una personalización sin precedentes. Para demostrar el éxito del proyecto, se someterán dos prototipos a rigurosas pruebas y validaciones.
Objetivo
INNOVIP Consortium will reinvent the top-of-the-line insulating material vacuum-insulation-panels (VIP) by improving their thermal performance over the entire lifetime by at least 25 % and making VIPs adjustable, mountable and machineable. By reducing the density of the core material and/or using an alternative core material together with less expensive VIP-envelopes as gas barrier, it will be possible to sell the new product INNOVIP by more than 20 % lower price. Besides, the new product has a reduced embodied energy by at least 25 % and, attaching different cover layers, the panels can fulfill different functions. These additional functions can be adjusted according to the application they address, for example photocatalytic VOC removal from indoor- and outdoor air, anti mould coating, moisture buffering by Aluminium Compounds or summer heat cut-off by latent heat activated in phase change materials (PCMs).
Currently there is no such material on the market. INNOVIP will develop such an innovative solution which will lead to a breakthrough in energy efficiency of the opaque parts of the building envelope – both in new built and existing houses. The success of the development process will be demonstrated in two prototypes that can be tested and validated. Development tasks will be carried out in close cooperation with the three complementary and reputed participating testing laboratories. We will show that, in principle, the new product is ready for use in certain important and representative applications, addressing a relevant market volume by replacing conventional insulating materials and standard VIP in established insulation solutions.
