With rubber-plastic insulation board, why do air-conditioning pipes still produce condensation?

When it comes to air conditioning condensation phenomenon, many people are not unfamiliar. Especially in summer, hot weather, air humidity, air conditioning temperature is low, it is easy to produce condensation phenomenon. But before we introduced that rubber and plastic insulation materials belong to closed-cell foam structure products, which have moisture resistance, moisture impermeability and moisture resistance. So why is there condensation phenomenon? Before understanding this problem, we first understand the causes of condensation phenomenon.

In the natural state, the air will contain a small amount of water vapor. When the actual temperature of the air drops below the dew point temperature of the water vapor, condensation will occur. When an object is lower than the dew point temperature of the environment for a long time and is transferred to the surrounding air to reduce it to the dew point temperature, it will produce condensation on the surface of the low-temperature object.

However, air conditioning system pipes are generally wrapped with rubber and plastic insulation materials. Rubber and plastic insulation material insulation moisture resistance performance. While maintaining the temperature of the air conditioner, it can also isolate the penetration of water vapor. What causes the condensation of the air conditioner?

In fact, we said this problem during the rubber and plastic construction in front. Generally speaking, it is divided into two situations. One is that in the construction of rubber and plastic, the construction quality problem leads to a gap at the joint of rubber and plastic, or the rubber and plastic material is damaged, resulting in the contact between the air conditioning pipe and the air, and the condensation phenomenon will occur under the condition of large temperature difference and high humidity in the environment.

Another situation is that the selection of rubber and plastic material thickness is not enough, or aging, resulting in condensation phenomenon. Therefore, we must choose the appropriate thickness of rubber and plastic materials, in the construction must pay attention to the construction quality, in strict accordance with the construction requirements and procedures for construction, in order to avoid the occurrence of condensation phenomenon.
