High Temperature Papers

Overview: High Temperature Papers

Final Advanced Materials presents two high temperature papers which can withstand up to 1,260 °C. These products are thin and light and offers an ideal solution for small spaces and high temperatures. While phlogopite mica paper has outstanding dialectric characteristics, biosoluble fibre paper offers a better thermal insulaiton.

Applications of Papers

• High temperature gasket
• Thermal insulation
• Electrical insulation
• Heat shield

Our Range of Papers

Phlogopite Mica Paper

Phlogopite mica paper is comprised of 90 % mica impregnated with a specific high-temperature-resistant binder, and reinforced by glass fibre applied to one side. When this paper is exposed to high temperatures, its resin content breaks down, without impairing the high-temperature electrical insulating properties of mica. Its dielectric strength remains constant up to 380 °C, then decreases progressively. Moreover, mica paper is chemically neutral, non-toxic and entirely halogen-free. It shows excellent resistance to water, acids (excluding sulphuric acid), bases, mineral oils and solvents. The mineral phlogopite shows exceptional flame-resistance properties, and can easily accommodate peak temperatures of up to 1,000 °C.

     Applications

• Burner gaskets
• Exhaust manifold gaskets
• Heat-exchanger gaskets
• Thermal insulation
• Electrical insulation

Biosoluble Fibre Paper

Biosoluble fibre papers offer excellent thermal resistance. They can withstand operating temperatures up to 1,200 °C and classification temperatures up to 1,260 °C. The biosoluble fibre of its composition is non-carcinogenic and a safe alternative to asbestos, ceramic fibre and mineral fibre. Biosoluble fibre papers are flexible, easy to cut and to install. These papers contain organic binders, which improve the product’s flexibility. They are mainly used in the industry for high-temperature applications, such as the manufacture of high-temperature gaskets and packings.

The biosoluble fibre papers provided by Final Advanced Materials are available with a thickness ranging from 1 to 5 mm and a width from 610 to 1,260 mm.

     Applications

• High-temperature gaskets and packings
• Insulation of ingot moulds
• Heat shield for the motor industry
• Molten metal transfer system (second-rate insulation)
• Insulating envelopes for the protection of nozzles in the steel industry
