Abstract: An insulation product demonstrating enhanced insulative properties is described herein. Generally, the insulation product comprises a fibrous insulation component and a phase change material. In certain embodiments, the phase change material may take the form of a layer disposed on a surface of the fibrous insulation component or interposed within the fibrous insulation component.

Abstract: A fibrous insulation product having a plurality of randomly oriented glass fibers and a binder composition that holds the glass fibers together is disclosed. The fibrous insulation product has an R-value in the range of 10 to 54 and, after curing, has a density, when uncompressed, in the range of 0.30 pcf to 2.7 pcf. Furthermore, the fibrous insulation product includes glass fibers that, prior to the application of the binder composition, have an average fiber diameter less than 15 HT and a quantity of binder that is in the range of 2% to 10% by weight of the fibrous insulation product. The fibrous insulation product also has an average fiber diameter to density ratio (Fd/D) of less than or equal to 40 and a comfort factor less than or equal to 3.417(Fd/D)+60.

Abstract: An ultrathin-layer chromatography plate having a stationary phase with electrospun nanofibers comprising silica, wherein the stationary phase has a thickness from about 10 ?m to about 30 ?m.
