Abstract: Methods of making vacuum insulation products are provided. One method includes providing an insulative mixture comprising an insulative material, such as silica, with a radiation absorbent material, such as carbon black, and applying electromagnetic radiation such as microwave radiation to the insulative mixture to dry the insulative mixture. The insulative mixture can then be placed into an enclosure and sealed within the enclosure. The enclosure can be evacuated before sealing to reduce the pressure within the enclosure to below atmospheric pressure. The use of radiation such as microwave radiation to dry the insulative mixture advantageously reduces the time required to fabricate the vacuum insulation product and can reduce the pressure that is obtained in the vacuum insulation product, thereby increasing thermal performance of the product.

Abstract: A method of preparing a vacuum insulation panel is disclosed. In the method of the present invention, a plurality of metal oxide-containing compacts, each of which contains less water than the amount of water contained therein at atmospheric equilibrium, are enclosed in a film that retards the passage of moisture therethrough. The film is breached and the metal oxide-containing compacts are positioned in an air-impermeable container at atmospheric pressure. The pressure is reduced in the air-impermeable container, and the air-impermeable container is sealed to form the vacuum insulation panel. Also disclosed is a vacuum insulation panel comprising a plurality of metal oxide-containing compacts disposed in an air-impermeable container, wherein the metal oxide-containing compacts contain less water than the amount of water contained therein at atmospheric equilibrium.

Abstract: A method of compacting a fumed metal oxide-containing composition is disclosed. In the method of the present invention, the fumed metal oxide-containing composition is treated with vapor comprising water such that the vapor is adsorbed into the fumed metal oxide so as to produce a vapor-treated fumed metal oxide-containing composition. Pressure is applied to the vapor-treated fumed metal oxide-containing composition to reduce the volume of the metal oxide-containing composition so as to produce a compacted metal oxide-containing composition, which is characterized by a volume springback that is less than the volume springback of the same compacted metal oxide-containing composition prepared in the absence of said vapor treatment.
