Product Data
Brightcross Standard RCF shapes are produced by dewatering a slurry containing ceramic fibre, starch and silica. The resulting items when dried are rigid, pure white, low density and exhibit the following properties:
- High temperature stability
- Low thermal conductivity
- Low heat storage
- Low density
- Good thermal shock resistance
- Good corrosion resistance
