Advancing Underfloor Heating with EVAT™ EVOH Resin

EVAT™ EVOH resin has become a cornerstone in the development of high-performance underfloor heating pipes, offering a unique set of properties that address the specific needs of this demanding application. The resin's most notable feature is its exceptional barrier performance against oxygen and other gases, which plays a crucial role in maintaining the efficiency and longevity of underfloor heating systems. By significantly reducing oxygen permeation, EVAT™ EVOH resin helps prevent the corrosion of metal components within the heating system, such as pumps and heat exchangers. This corrosion prevention is essential for maintaining optimal heat transfer and system efficiency over time, resulting in lower energy consumption and reduced maintenance costs for end-users.

The thermal and mechanical properties of EVAT™ EVOH resin make it particularly well-suited for the challenging conditions encountered in underfloor heating applications. The material exhibits excellent dimensional stability across a wide range of temperatures, ensuring that pipes maintain their shape and performance characteristics even when subjected to the thermal cycling inherent in heating systems. This stability is crucial for preventing leaks and maintaining the system's integrity over its lifespan. Additionally, the resin's high crystallinity contributes to its outstanding barrier properties and mechanical strength, allowing manufacturers to produce pipes that are not only highly effective at preventing oxygen permeation but also capable of withstanding the physical stresses associated with installation and long-term use in varying building environments.

Beyond its technical advantages, EVAT™ EVOH resin offers significant benefits in terms of processing and sustainability. The material's excellent processability allows for efficient and consistent production of underfloor heating pipes, enabling manufacturers to meet the growing demand for these systems without compromising on quality. Furthermore, the resin's compatibility with recycling processes aligns with the increasing focus on sustainability in the construction industry. By choosing pipes made with EVAT™ EVOH resin, builders and homeowners can contribute to more environmentally friendly construction practices without sacrificing performance or reliability. This combination of technical excellence, processability, and sustainability positions EVAT™ EVOH resin as a forward-thinking solution for the evolving needs of the underfloor heating industry.
