ZRCI
Introduces New Thermal Shock Resistant Silica Composite.
ZIRCAR Refractory
Composites, Inc., Florida, NY is proud to announce the introduction of Refractory
Sheet Type RSLE-57.
ZIRCAR Refractory Sheet
type RSLE-57 is a low thermal expansion, high strength reinforced silica
matrix composite. Designed for use as a high strength insulator in
induction hot press applications, it is ideal for any application which
requires a material with superior hot strength at temperatures as high as
1200°C (2192°F). Beyond 1200°C (2192°F) it begins to transforms into a
crystalline structure. RSLE-57 maintaining its properties up to 1650°C
(3002°F) providing that there is no significant fall in temperature. At
These elevated temperatures this the material will exhibit surface glazing
while retaining its strength.
RSLE-57’s
very low thermal expansion coefficient and high density combine to give it
thermal shock resistance not found in other structural ceramic composite
materials. These properties give it much greater life in most hot pressing
and induction heating applications.
RSLE-57
exhibits exceptional non-wetting properties when used in contact with
molten aluminum, zinc, lead, tin and other non-ferrous metals, making it
useful in numerous casting, conveying, containing and forming
applications. RSLE-57 is the ideal material for use as Dams,
Spouts, Floats, Launders, Head Boxes, Baffles, Headers, Tips, Rings,
Distribution Boxes, Stoppers, Basins, Snouts, Transition & Orifice
Plates and Hot Top & Ingot Mold Liners. RSLE-57 is 100% organic
free and contains no refractory ceramic fibers (RCF’s).
