Pure Silica Fibre Felts, up to 1,200 °C
All our pure silica fibre products have a proportion of silica greater than 99.95 %. They are made of continuous, homogeneous and non-porous fibres. Silica is not only one the most effective high-temperature materials but is also among the most reliable and ecological on the market.
Pure silica fibre felts are composed of silica fibre combined with polyvinyl alcohol. They can be used at temperatures up to 1,200 °C. There is no shrinkage even with operating temperatures up to 1,000 °C and they maintain very low thermal conductivity as well as excellent mechanical properties.
These felts are particularly appreciated in the aerospace industry for the insulation of engines thanks to their outstanding insulating and fireproof properties as well as their resistance to vibrations and their very long life. Their outstanding properties are also useful for domestic applications such as catalytic heaters and industrial furnace insulation.
The pure silica fibre felts provided by Final Advanced Materials are available untreated or calcined. The calcination process removes the fibres on the surface, thus improving their performance and their resistance to heat. A polyvinyl acetate (PVA) binder is also possible.
For more information regarding the availability, refer to the technical data sheet.
