Device for Restoring or for Installing the Thermally Insulating External Jacket of Pipes, Tubes, Hoses, Connection Elements and Other Jacketed Elements

A method for producing a gel type heat insulation elastomer compound, for a device for repairing or fitting heat insulation capabilities of the external cladding of clad members comprising the steps of a) stirring by mixing the elastomeric polymer, the hydrocarbon base and any additives, b) followed by heating to the melting point of the gel type elastomer compound, associated with deaeration, c) followed by hot casting at the same temperature into a mould and d) cooling of said compound, in the mould, followed by e) releasing said compound produced from the mould at ambient temperature.

A method for producing a gel type heat insulation elastomer compound, for a device for repairing or fitting heat insulation capabilities of the external cladding of clad members comprising the steps of:

• (i) producing a pre-gel obtained by introducing a small proportion of a sequenced thermoplastic copolymer in the entire hydrocarbon base, and any additives, said pre-gel being heated to the melting point of the sequenced thermoplastic copolymer, (ii) cooling the pre-gel to ambient temperature, (iii) adding the additional sequenced thermoplastic copolymer in the pre-gel under stirring and deaeration, (iv) filling the mould at a temperature and for a time required to achieve gelling of the elastomer compound, and (v) cooling and cold releasing of elastomer compound from the mould.
