rock wool is made out of rock and glass wool is made out of glass
Steel wool corrodes from water because the water has oxygen. If the steel wool is in contact with both the water and oxygen it will begin to rust rapidly. The rusting will take a while. It will take between 5-7 days.
The steel wool gets wet. If you take the steel wool out (into the air) again it will rust.
you will destroy the wool that will happen for sure.
burnibg wool smells like buning hair becuase both wool and hair comes from animals and has protein amount in it....
Wool dyes so well because it has fibers that absorb color. The filament is very fine in wool. It can be dyed almost any color.
It depends on the application and your budget. The rockwool insulation is more dense (KG/M3) than the glasswool insulation. The rockwool is also economical as compared to glasswool insulation. In some cases where the air velocity is greater one must use rockwool because it does not decay to much and does not cause any health issues. Glasswool and rockwool, both are incombustible so you can choose whatever you want. But I shall go with the economical one.
Rock wool or mineral wool is a more compacted less friable type of molten silica (glass) wool for use as insulation it usually comes in boards or sheets of insulation from 1 to 6 inches thick. It is fairly stiff but slightly bendable it is easy to cut and shape and can be nailed or tacked into place. The heat rating and melting temperatures of rock wool are higher than fiberglass. It is usually used in industrial settings for kilns, industrial boilers, ovens and furnaces.
which is the thicker wool, Aran or chunky
i feel' mineral wool is spun out of molten minerals like basalt, volcanics material, (we can also take slag wool a similar material as it comes from furnace as lawa). it is soft. glass wool have more silica in its composition,shines more and white in color ,it is brittle as compare to mineral wool .its fibre length is also more and straight as compare to mineral wool. umesh chitlangia
Synthetic wool is man-made; wool is cleaned, carded and spun fleece that animals grow on their skin.
one is made from rock and one is made from fibre glass
Wool is a natural fibre grown by animals as fleece; polyester is fabricated from petroleum.
will 0000 rock wool scratch windsheild glass
They have one common character, that is CLOTHING!
No. Rockwool or mineral wool insulation is mineral fibers from volcanic rock heated and spun into a cotton candy texture and has never been reported to have been manufactured using asbestos.
yes.glass wool is one of the sound absorbing material while ground glass is not.
Merino is made of extra long, fine wool that comes form this particular kind of sheep.
