Kaowool TM VF Shapes are insulating products made from a mixture of refractory ceramic fibre by vacuum forming. This process allows the production of a variety of configurations, tailored to the particular application and ranging from simple sections (such as sleeves, cones) to complex shapes. Compositions are available for service temperatures from 1260°C to 1600°C. Shapes can also be produced in a strong composition which gives higher strength and density. Thermal properties are similar to the normal grades but with improved resistance to erosion. Kaowool TM VF can also be supplied as a Wet Pak in size of 1000 x 1000mm, packed wet into individual plastic bags. The sheets can be formed in situ to any shape desired, which on drying, develops properties similar to those of Kaowool TM VF products. Wet Pak have a shelf life in a moist state of up to 42 days provided that the bags remain sealed and are maintained at temperatures within the range of 10°C to 50°C (50°F to 122°F). These versatile products can be used where rigid shapes, self supporting are required for high temperature insulation (according to the mix). Designed as per customer drawings, they are easy to install.Information provided by Morgan Advanced Materials |
