Isofrax Soluble Fibre
Properties & Applications |
Isofrax vitreous magnesium-silicate fibre exhibits improved in-vitro solubility characteristics compared to Fiberfrax refractory ceramic fibres and improved thermal stability compared to Insulfrax soluble fibres. In fact, Isofrax meets European regulatory requirements for synthetic vitreous high temperature insulation fibres, and is recommended for continuous use at temperatures up to 1260°C (2300°F).
Isofrax products are characterized by, low thermal conductivity, low heat storage, excellent thermal shock resistance, light weight, excellent chemical stability, and high strength & flexibility. Thermal stability and low density make Isofrax products ideal high temperature insulation materials. Isofrax also exhibits superior wetting resistance to corrosive molten aluminum alloys than traditional alumino-silicate refractory ceramic fibres.
Isofrax products are used in a wide range of applications including refractory linings, high temperature insulation & gasketing, heat shields & fire protection, and also molten metals transfer. Isofrax high temperature insulation is widely applied in manufacture and industry, including; metals processing, petrochemical & power, and ceramics & glass.

Isofrax 1260°C Insulation Blankets |
Isofrax 1260°C High Temperature Insulation Blankets are available in thicknesses from 13 - 50mm, and densities from 96 - 160kg/m3. Extra long spun Isofrax fibres are cross-locked in a unique forming process to enhance the blankets tensile strength and eliminate the need for binders. This results in no outgassing or smoke generation upon heating Isofrax 1260°C blanket.
Isofrax 1260°C Blanket is applied as high temperature insulation in the metal, petrochemical / power, ceramic & glass production industries. Isofrax has a temperature rating for use up to 1260°C (2300°F), but the blanket can withstand short-term excursions to higher temperatures - with moderate shrinkage.
Isofrax 1260°C Blanket has excellent chemical stability and is unaffected by most chemicals except hydrofluoric & phosphoric acids, and concentrated alkalies. Despite it's high in-vitro solubility, if Isofrax 1260°C is wet by water or steam, thermal and physical properties remain unaffected after drying. Isofrax 1260°C Blanket also provides superior resistance to attack from molten aluminum alloys at high temperatures

Isofrax 1260°C Papers & Felts |
 |
Isofrax 1260°C High Temperature Insulation Papers & Felts are easily die cut and fabricated for a variety of thermal and high temperature insulation applications. These Isofrax products exhibit excellent chemical stability and resistance to attack from most corrosive agents. Exceptions include hydrofluoric acid, phosphoric acid and strong alkalis. Isofrax 1260°C Papers & Felts also provide superior wetting resistance to molten aluminum alloys at high temperatures and generate only minor amounts of smoke and trace element outgassing during initial exposure to temperatures above 230°C.
Isofrax 1260°C Insulation Paper is uniquely manufactured by forming Isofrax 1260°C Fibre in a randomly oriented nonwoven sheet, bonded in a latex matrix. A specialized, statistically controlled paper-making process is utilized to form uniform, lightweight, flexible paper. Available in thicknesses from 1 - 6mm.
Isofrax 1260°C Insulation Felt is manufactured by taking long, spun Isofrax fibres and incorporating them in a wet forming process, producing a flexible product with good handling strength. Available in thicknesses from 3 - 25mm,
