SYNTACTIC FOAM COMPOSITIONS, PIPELINES INSULATED WITH SAME, AND METHOD

摘要

Syntactic foams and thermal insulation as described containing epoxy resin, hollow microspheres, and dried sol-gel or fumed metal oxide for forming a thermal insulating layer on a substrate such as a pipeline. Methods for forming such thermal insulating layers are also described, which can include formulating with blowing agents for forming closed cells in the finished insulating foam.
