    Thermal insulation materials have special functions and are widely used in many fields, especially in large-scale engineering projects. It is an important accessory for the operation of the structure and function of large-scale equipment and components. As a material that plays an indispensable role in the building materials industry, its own quality deeply affects the function and quality stability of project engineering or components. Therefore, the analysis and testing of thermal insulation materials from a professional and scientific perspective plays a vital role in ensuring the quality stability of project equipment or components.
