Material Notes:
Description: HYTEX is the trademark for the textile products manufactured by Mid-Mountain Materials, Inc. Hytex high performance textile products are manufactured from various yarns of varying chemistry and in differing configurations (cloth, tape, sleeving, rope etc.). Mid-Mountain can design hybrid materials by blending most any combination of yarns.

HYTEX® 2200 Nextel® Ceramic fiber industrial textiles are exceptionally effective high temperature textile products capable of withstanding continuous temperatures of 2200ºF to 1205ºC. Manufactured fro Nextel® ceramic fiber yarn with no supportive carrier fibers, these products retain strength, flexibility and molten metal resistance at higher temperatures than most other refractory textile material. Low thermal conductivity and high electrical resistivity makes HYTEX® 2200 products highly efficient as high temperature thermal and electrical insulation.

Nextel® based HTYEX® 2200 textiles are compatible with silicone, epoxy, phenolic, polyester, and polyimide matrix materials. Fire barriers constructed from Nextel® fiber products are lighter weight than metallic materials and have successfully passed FAA 2000ºF • 1095ºC 15-minute flame penetration tests.
