Refractory fiber CERAFIBER / CERACHEM / CERACHROME

Price: on request

Cerafiber: Spun refractory fibres, made from electrically melted alumina and silica.
Cerachem Fiber: Spun refractory fibres, made from electrically melted alumina, silica and zirconia.
Cerachrome Fiber: Spun refractory fibres, made from electrically melted alumina, silica and chromia.
All three fibres are resistant to chemical attack, except for hydrofluoric and phosphoric acids and strong alkalies

Type:
bulk refractory ceramic fibres.

Maximum continuous use temperature:
Cerafiber - 1260 ⁰С
Cerachem Fiber - 1425 ⁰С
Cerachrome Fiber - 1425 ⁰С
The maximum continuous use temperature depends on the application. In case of doubt, refer to your local Morgan Thermal Ceramics distributor for advice.

Grades availabe:
Cerafiber 10, Cerachem Fiber 50 & Cerachrome Fiber 40:
Unprocessed, long unlubricated fibre. Raw material for vacuum forming processes.

Cerafiber 11:
Unprocessed, long lubricated fibre of low shot content. Raw material for textile products.

Cerafiber 520, Cerachem Fiber 51 & Cerachrome Fibre 41:
Long lubricated fibre for packing expansion and void areas in refractory constructions.

Features:
• excellent thermal stability: resist devitrification at high temperature;
• low thermal conductivity;
• excellent thermal shock resistance;
• high chemical stability;
• contain no binders or corrosive agents;
• resilient up to high temperatures;
• low heat storage capacity;
• excellent sound absorber;
• the packed density of bulk refractory fibres is between 90 and 200kg/m3 depending on the force applied to pack it. It is very difficult to obtain a density higher than 200kg/m3 by hand packing.

Applications:
• raw material for the manufacturing of finished products such as boards, paper, shapes, yarns etc;
• loose insulating fill for complex spaces and areas where access is difficult;
• packing expansion joints;
• packing material for temporary repair of insulation;
• fibre reinforcement for insulating concretes and cements;
• precursor for engineered fibres;
