Ceramic Paper And Boards

Product Description

Ceramic paper is a flexible and lightweight insulating material that comes as a thin, flexible sheet. It is typically manufactured from ceramic fibers bonded with organic binders. The organic binders burn out at elevated temperatures, leaving a highly porous ceramic structure with excellent insulating properties. Key features of the ceramic paper include:

• • High Temperature Resistance: Ceramic paper can withstand temperatures up to 2300°F (1260°C) or higher.
  • Low Thermal Conductivity: It offers low thermal conductivity, effectively insulating against heat transfer.
  • Easy to Cut and Shape: Its flexibility allows easy cutting and shaping to fit various equipment and surfaces.
  • Chemical Inertness: Ceramic paper is chemically inert and resistant to most chemical agents.
  • Low Heat Storage: Its low heat storage capacity makes it suitable for cyclic heating and cooling processes.

Applications of Ceramic Paper:

• Gasketing material in high-temperature applications.
• Insulation for expansion joints in furnaces and kilns.
• Thermal barrier and insulation for equipment in industrial processes.Ceramic Boards: Ceramic boards are rigid, flat panels made from refractory ceramic fibers. These boards offer similar high-temperature insulation properties as ceramic paper but provide more structural stability and rigidity. They are available in various thicknesses and can be used in applications requiring higher mechanical strength. Key features of ceramic boards include:
  • High Temperature Resistance: Ceramic boards can withstand temperatures up to 2300°F (1260°C) or higher.
  • Low Thermal Conductivity: They offer excellent thermal insulation.
  • Structural Integrity: Ceramic boards provide added mechanical strength and stability compared to flexible materials like ceramic paper.
  • Machinable: Some ceramic boards can be easily machined or cut into specific shapes and sizes.

Applications of Ceramic Boards:

• Insulating barriers and walls in high-temperature furnaces and kilns.
• Structural components in high-temperature equipment.
• Back-up insulation for refractory linings.

Both ceramic paper and ceramic boards are essential components in industries where high-temperature processes are involved. They help improve energy efficiency, protect equipment, and ensure safe and reliable operations in extreme heat conditions. Proper safety precautions should be followed while handling these materials, including using personal protective equipment (PPE) due to potential irritation from fine ceramic fibers.
