Suggested Automotive Applications
Nansulate’s unique thermal insulation abilities offer many
opportunities for increased vehicle performance.
Increase Engine Performance.
THE SOLUTION: Increase engine horsepower and performance by
coating various parts with our Nansulate Translucent High Heat product
to create a thermal barrier, and reduce heat transfer. Suggested parts
include: Intake manifold, Fuel tank, Fuel pump, any others where
reduction of heat transfer would be a benefit.
Reduce Heat Transfer to Interior of the vehicle.
THE SOLUTION: Use of Nansulate on the interior of the chassis and the
firewall between the drivers compartment and the engine can help to
keep the interior of the car cooler. A cooler vehicle interior reduces the
workload of the A/C unit, using less gasoline.
Translucent is as Versatile as Your Design

1. Thin Film Insulation
Nansulate is a patented product, offering unique benefits not possible in a
thin film coating until now.
Nansulate can be applied in a variety of tight spaces and to a number of
components to keep heat transfer to a minimum, thus increasing energy
efficiency.
The active ingredient of Nansulate is Hydro-NM-Oxide, a product of
nanotechnology.
How It Works
NanoParticle
The insulating component
of Nansulate is Hydro-NMOxide, a product of
nanotechnology. The
particle’s thermal
conductivity is a very low
0.017 W/mK, which means
it is not a good conductor of
thermal energy, and that in
turn means it is an
excellent insulator.
Conduction
Knudsen Effect
Thermal conduction
through the solid portion
of the particle is hindered
by the tiny size of the
connections (tunnels).
Thermal transfer occurs
through a complicated
maze and the gas
molecules within the matrix
experience the Knudsen
Effect, and the exchange
of energy is virtually
eliminated.
The energy of the ball
bounced through the
tunnel is decreased
sooner than the energy
of the ball bounced
outside the tunnel
Energy Savings Testing
Two identical wooden boxes were furnished with incandescent lamps and thermocouples at the same
positions inside the boxes. One box was coated with 3 coats of Nansulate GP on all surfaces inside and
outside. At an ambient temperature of 13C (55F), both heating elements were switched on and temperatures
were noted against time.

2. Corrosion Prevention
Nansulate offers the unique combination of corrosion prevention and
insulation combined into a single coating.
Nansulate solves the age-old problem of CUI (corrosion under
Insulation), while offering a translucent finish that allows for
ultrasound and visual inspections without need for removal.
Nansulate has passed the rigorous GM9540P Accelerated
Corrosion Test at 24 cycles.
GM 9540P Accelerated Corrosion Test
The GM9540P has been adopted as the leading environmental corrosion test
that is used universally by the Military, Auto and Heavy Process Industries
because it replicates many of the worst-case environments. The cyclic
process refers to the repeated changes in test conditions, ideally to replicate
the changing environments where the product will be used. Passing 8 cycles
of the test is considered standard for an anti-corrosive coating.
24 Cycles passed,
No red rust present
3. Mould Resistance
Nansulate is resistant to existing mold growth as well as resistant to
new mould growth.
Nansulate does not contain any potentially harmful anti-fungal
agents or mouldicides. It is water-based and non-toxic.
Nansulate provides a comprehensive solution for building owners
who want to protect their assets from mould growth, and for commercial
homebuilders who wish to offer a mould resistant solution to their
customers.
Mould Resistance Testing
EMSL Analytical, Inc., one of the nation's leading testing laboratories, compared mould growth on
wooden surfaces coated with Nansulate™ HomeProtect to surfaces with no coating. Both were
exposed to spore-producing bacteria, including Pencillium funiculosum, Aspergillus niger,
Aureobasidium pullulans, Chaetomium globosum, and Trichoderma virens. After four weeks,
Nansulate™ HomeProtect exhibited zero or minimal mould growths, whereas the uncoated
surfaces showed extreme to 100 percent mould coverage.
The testing was conducted by EMSL Analytical, Inc., an AIHA accredited laboratory, and
conformed to guidelines defined by the American Society for Testing and Materials in ASTM D
5590, "Standard Test Method for Determining the Resistance of Paint Films and Related Coatings
to Fungal Defacement by Accelerated Four-Week Agar Plate Assay," and ASTM G21, "Standard
Practice for Determining Resistance of Synthetic Polymeric Materials to Fungi."
Customer Feedback
Insulation
Solution
“I applied four coats of Nansulate on the copper pipe coming out of our
tankless water heater. Two months after the application, the pipe feels
warm instead of hot to the touch when we run the water. It also cuts the
time for warm water to get to a faucet if we have run it recently, because
water stays warm in the pipes longer than before.
I also applied Nansulate to the hot air ducts that come out of our
furnace. Our furnace room is vented to the outside, so warmth in the
ducts would escape into the room between each furnace run, and the
fan would blow the cold air into the house every time the furnace came
on. Two months after applying Nansulate GP to the ducts, there is no
initial blast of cold air from the vents when the furnace kicks on, unless
the system has not run for several hours. Application in this project was
easy and appears to be durable…”

Solution
"We used Nansulate paint last year to paint a 5m³ heated
stainless steel tank which is positioned outdoors at a company in
Cobden. This tank is used for melting butterfat. We achieved a
measurable difference in the contents of this tank ... The outside
of the tank was previously too hot to touch. With three coats of
Nansulate applied, the touch was now warm to touch and there
was a visual improvement to the melting efficiency of the product
inside. We are very happy with the performance of Nansulate and
intend on using it to paint future tanks."

Before:
"I painted my container with normal
paint. After a time I found much
condensation and mould on the
wall."
After:
"After I applied Nansulate to it, I never
found condensation and mould again. I
was so surprised about it. "
