Advantages

  • Excellent thermal stability
  • Low thermal conductivity – reduces heat transfer
  • High durability in intense heat environments
  • Non – toxic and eco – friendly (unlike ceramic fibers)
  • Flexible and easier to handle than ceramic fabrics
  • Good abrasion resistance, especially with coating
