  • Patent number: 9061941
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an inorganic board comprising a base layer containing magnesium-based inorganic materials and phase change materials, and to a method for producing the board. The inorganic board of the present invention employs magnesium-based inorganic materials instead of plaster used in conventional boards, and thus improves the strength and water resistance thereof as compared to conventional plaster boards. Accordingly, the board of the present invention is formed so as to be thin, and the content of the phase change materials in the base layer increases by the superior blending ratio of magnesium-based inorganic materials and phase change materials, thus maintaining the indoor temperature of the structure constructed by the board of the present invention at a comfortable level. Therefore, the inorganic board of the present invention can be effectively used in interior materials or the like for a building, which require strength and water resistance properties.

  • Patent number: 8956710
    Abstract: Disclosed are a vacuum insulation panel, a method for manufacturing the same and an insulation box having the same. By cutting the core material correspondingly to shape and thickness of the absorbent without cut of the core material and pressing the absorbent securing part to form the groove for placing the absorbent therein, the vacuum insulation panel prevents partial deterioration of heat transmission caused by the cutoff of the core material or deterioration of the smoothness caused by placing the absorbent above the core material or between the core materials. Particularly, it is possible to prevent the phenomenon that the periphery is pressed together, which is shown in a conventional press process, to thereby improve the smoothness by cutting the core material in shape and depth corresponding to the shape and thickness of the absorbent prior to the press of the absorbent securing part.
