Zircar Refractory Composites ALUMINA-SILICA INSULATION RSBD-HD

Subcategory: Oxide, Silicon; Oxide, Aluminum; Oxide

Material Notes:
ZRCI Alumina-Silica Insulation Type RSBD-HD Board is a ceramic fiber insulation suitable for use to 1260°C (2300°C). It is a strong, rigid refractory structure of high temperature ceramic fibers and high purity inorganic binders. It offers low thermal conductivity, excellent thermal shock resistance and is an effective thermal insulator in numerous thermal process systems. It is also well-suited for applications experiencing vibration, mechanical stress and strong erosive forces. The excellent rigidity and modulus of rupture possessed by this board makes it strong and self-supporting, yet relatively lightweight and easy to cut or machine. This product`s features allow for quick, efficient handling and high installation rates, thereby enabling fast turnaround times in a variety of industrial insulation applications. Once installed, it can help reduce energy costs and cycling times due to its high insulating capability, as well as serving to protect refractory surfaces from thermal shock. Type RSBD-HD Board exhibits excellent chemical stability, resisting attack by most corrosive agents. Exceptions are hydrofluoric, phosphoric, hydrochloric and sulfuric acids as well as concentrated alkalies. It will also resist oxidation and reduction to a certain point. If wet by water, steam or oil upon drying all properties will be restored.
