Integrated MultiLayer Insulation (IMLI)

IMLI is a high performance insulation developed by Quest Thermal Group for NASA. IMLI uses proprietary Discrete Spacer Technology™ with low thermal conductivity polymer spacers to reduce heat leak, control layer spacing and density, and provide unique structural capabilities.  IMLI offers half the heat leak per layer as netting MLI, robust structure, predictable performance, fewer layers and lower mass then netting MLI, can span large spaces and support external loads.

IMLI’s engineered structure can be designed for specific heat flux or structural loads for mission requirements.
