INSULATION FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE FURNACE
Mersen's expertise is demonstrated in the energy efficiency and thermal control of numerous high temperature industrial processes. Its range of thermal insulation materials includes a variety of rigid and flexible insulation materials that can be coated or impregnated.
Rigid insulation material:
• CALCARB®
CALCARB® is made up of carbon fibres measuring just a few millimetres in length, interconnected in a matrix produced by the carbonisation of phenolic resin. The material is vacuum-treated at temperatures above 2,000°C to ensure its temperature stability and the absence of outgassing.
CALCARB® provides the best thermal insulation properties at a high temperature, making it the material of choice among our customers concerned about the energy efficiency of their process
Rigid thermal protection:
• ISOLOR®
ISOLOR® is manufactured from a patented assembly of low-density expanded graphite foam and flexible graphite. This assembly can be used to produce plane and cylindrical structures through various processes, offering excellent thermal protection and vapour confinement, without the risk of contamination.
Flexible insulation materials:
• Flexible carbon fibre felt
In addition to its extensive product range, Mersen also supplies flexible carbon fibre insulating felts that can be shaped or wrapped around cylindrical thermal shields, to further enhance a process' efficiency.
