  1. CryoCoat™ UltraLight™ Insulation presented by: Michael L. Tupper COMPOSITE TECHNOLOGY DEVELOMENT INC. 1505 Coal Creek Drive Lafayette, Colorado 80026 January 2001

  2. The Innovation of UltraLight™ • UltraLight™ is a high integrity, low density material... that is not a foam! • Mechanical integrity of a syntactic foam • density & thermal conductivity of a chemically expanded foam • Material lighter than 5 PCF has been fabricated • Meet the requirements for insulating the space shuttle external tank

  3. The Systems Approach • Layered, Cryogenic Insulation System • Incorporates CTD’s expertise: Adhesives Thermal Insulation Protective Coatings • Each layer can be optimized • gives best system performance

  4. CryoCoat™ UltraLight™Cryogenic Insulation

  5. Advantages • Light weight • Dimensional stability • Easily machined or modified • Field repairable • Consistent manufacturing process • Easy to apply • Tailorable properties • Low cost

  6. Thermal Conductivity Range
