Thank you Cronos for the illustration and the calculation. But I seem not to understand it. I said, I am not an expert.

1mm achieves 12% savings

16cm Styrofoam achieves 400% savings

How do you come to this calculation? Or rather, how did you calculate it? With which formula. Again, I am ignorant and just trying to understand. So please explain it like to a first grader so that I understand how you come to the calculation, especially the 400% savings with Styrofoam.

Something else, I researched vacuumed glass microspheres yesterday which are the main component of this paint and at the same time read that Hyundai and 3M are researching it to bring it to market this year as insulation to be able to transport hydrogen on ships.
The question, of course, is about the quantity and thickness.
That this could then be uneconomical for the home builder would, of course, be conceivable.
For now.

Thank you for the comment. Good question, I will pass it on and am curious about the manufacturer's response. I understand your doubts and partly agree with you, but I always ask myself why go to such lengths to make money. Production halls, ordering microspheres from Kazakhstan, this and that.

Having certificates issued (it is not the wrong certificate but the correct one for the used product) this certificate from the ITB in Czech Republic, which cooperates with the German TÜV, cost €3000) because the customer, a Polish railway company, demanded it.

For me, it is easier to make money with hoaxes. Crypto Ponzi schemes, etc.

Why go to such effort?

Oh, I see.. an insulation board of 1-3cm made from the vacuum glass microsphere mixture is in the works at their place, they told me. Maybe then nordanney's remark will be obsolete once it is brought to the market and is just as light as the vacuum insulation panels or lighter.

Well, the water in the paint will probably evaporate?
Let it be 40% water content (normal paints have 25%), which then goes down to 5% (my assumption, I have no idea how much water is left in the paint on the wall in the end, possibly <5%).
=24 kg/m³.


Calculation goes like this:
U-value concrete wall (25cm): 3.3 W/m²K
U-value KSK (24cm): 1.61 W/m²K
U-value 16cm styrofoam with WLG 035: 0.2 W/m²K
The savings compared to concrete are therefore 1550%, compared to KSK: 705%, and compared to a wall building material that has exactly 1.0 W/m²K transmission heat loss 400%.

Thank you very much Tolentino. This is workable.

Okay nordanney, I asked you not to get on your high horse and you immediately jump completely over it with your statements. According to you, our European neighboring countries are corrupt and have no clue what they are doing and only specialize in cheating. I know some German companies that have excelled in that in the past but I do not presume to generalize everything right away. Thanks for your opinion but for me, the constructive discussion ends here from my side after your statement. By the way.. The Polish address is the office and the place of manufacture is in the Czech Republic but well researched. Please google my company address if you are at it and ask yourself if I have my loft doors made at my garage. LOL
