Abstract

Due to the reduction of energy resources and the need for savings in consumption, thermal barrier coatings in construction and various industries have been considered. Polymeric thermal barrier coatings are a branch of insulation coatings which for use of suitable reinforcement in the polymeric matrix can contain properties such as low thermal conductivity, high thermal resistance and are low absorption coefficient. Operation and easy application of polymeric insulation coatings are other benefits that have increased the interest to these coatings. If one of the components in this composition was in nano scale, nanocomposite thermal insulation coatings will be prepared. In this article, we will briefly mention nanocomposite coatings for low thermal conductivity and heat transfer rules govern mathematical models of these coatings will be discussed.
