Original Abstract

The paper discusses the use of alternative raw materials for the manufacturing of VIP (Vacuum Insulation Panels). VIP are thermally insulating boards with a fibrous core at an extremely low pressure. The research is focused on substituting glass fibers with polyester fibers in VIP cores. The polyester fibers are thermally bonded using BiCo fibers, which, once they have cooled, form the matrix of the composite VIP core. It was proved that polyester fibers bonded with BiCo fibers show great promise; most notably in terms of their excellent thermal insulation properties, which they retain for a long time.
