Description

An inorganic manufactured fiber that is stable at high temperatures. Ceramic fibers are composite materials made from mixtures of Silica with inorganic oxides such as Alumina, zirconia, thoria, Magnesia, hafnia, beryllia, Titanium dioxide, potassium titanate. They are used for insulation, packing, gaskets and reinforcement.

See Aluminum silicate fiber.

Synonyms and Related Terms

ramic fibre (Br.); fibras minerales (Esp.); bijvoorbeeld asbest (Ned);
