C-85 Alumina Fiber

C-85 Alumina Fiber

With an 85% Alumina content, these fibers can withstand long-term use at 1300℃ without losing strength. It is especially suited for ceramic matrix composite applications. Ceramic products made from this material offer the best resistance to high-temperature thermal shock and creep, allowing for long-term use in high-temperature, oxygen-rich environments.

 

Important Processing Information – Sizing

The surface of C-85 alumina fiber is coated with sizing. Available with epoxy and PVA sizing, and other sizing on request. Please note that during initial heating, the sizing may burn out and emit by-products or processing contaminants.
