เนื้อหาย่อ : Since ASTM Committee C-16 on Thermal Insulation was founded in March 1938, its policy
has been to sponsor programs periodically that provide the latest information regarding test
methods and insulation materials. As a result of these programs, more than a dozen ASTM
Special Technical Publications have been published on thermal insulation materials and tech-
nology, most of them in the last decade, based on symposia sponsored by the committee.
Activity and interest in thermal insulation have increased as a result of the space program in
the 1960s and energy conservation in the 1980s. In 1978, over 500 people participated in a
posium when the topic was enlarged to include not only technical measuremen
the parameters related to thermal insulation for energy conservation. The trend has continued
with sponsorship of conferences and symposia alternating between ASTM and the American
Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), with additional
sponsorship by both the U.S. Department of Energy and Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Pro-
ceedings of the ASHRAE-sponsored conferences are available as ASHRAE Special Publica-
tions. The ASTM-sponsored conferences and symposia continue to be published as ASTM Spe-
cial Technical Publications.
ublic awareness of rising energy prices has continued to focus attention on the u
thermal insulation as an effective energy-conserving measure. Research and development in
thermal insulation materials, testing methods and apparatus, and innovative applications pro-
vide the basis for obtaining substantially improved thermal performance. This volume presents
the insulation community with an update on the technical database in residential, commercial,
and industrial applications.
ASTM Committee C-16 on Thermal Insulation is pleased to continue to provide the format
for discussion and documentation of this complex subject. Also, this conference provides excel-
lent input to Committee C-16 in discharging its responsibility for promulgating standards for
insulation materials, systems, and test methods.
