Zircar Zirconia ZYF-S.75G Zirconia Felt Insulation

Zirconia Felt is a true ceramic textile formed by the unique ZIRCAR process for replicating organic structures in inorganic materials. The zirconia felt structure is a ‘needled felt’ which retains its fibrous nature to 2480°C. The stabilized zirconia composition permits the advantages of fibrous insulations to be extended into temperature regions well above the melting temperatures of siliceous and alumina insulation materials.Zirconia Felt Type ZYF-S.75G is ZYF-100 which has been physically filled with 0.75 grams silica per gram ZYF. This filled product retains some flexibility.Features: Low Thermal ConductivityHigh PorosityHigh PurityExtreme High Temperature StabilityFibers Stabilized with ~10 wt% YttriaCustom Fillers and Coatings AvailableCan be Cemented with Zircar Zirconia Cement Type ZR-CEMCan be Rigidized with Zircar Zirconia Rigidizer Type ZIR-RIGEasily Cut to SizeAvailable “Off the Shelf”Application Information: This heavy, silica loaded felt is used as a gasket material in molten carbonate fuel cells. When compressed between the sealing surfaces of the fuel cell container ZYF-S.75G forms a barrier that resists attack from the molten carbonate electrolyte.Information provided by Zircar Zirconia.
