    Products name:

  • DENKA ALCEN

Product use:

-Lining, sealing and packing materials for heating, calcining and other industrial furnaces used in steel and ceramics manufacturing processes

-Raw material for fire-resistant and thermal insulation boards as well as vacuum-formed products with superior heat resistance and strength

-Raw material for lightweight castables* 

 * A fire-resistant material made using a mix of fire-resistant aggregate and water-hardening cement. This material enables the construction of one-piece fire-resistant walls whose heat-resistant performance is as good as that displayed by a wall made of fire bricks or thermal-insulation bricks.

-Ingredient for preformed products* for creating fiber reinforced metal (FRM) and metal matrix composite (MMC) products

 * Interim products intended to be mixed later with metals or other materials

-Raw material of support mat for holding the combustion catalysts used in automobile exhaust gas purification systems

Outline

DENKA ALCEN is a polycrystalline alumina short fiber. Consisting mainly of alumina and silica, alumina fibers are used as fire-resistant and thermal-insulation materials for high-temperature environments. Its areas of application encompass a range of fields, including as a thermal insulation material used in steel, metal and ceramics manufacturing and as material for automobile parts.


Characteristics

-Capable of withstanding maximum temperatures of 1500°C to 1700°C* (2,732F~3,092F)

-Superior chemical characteristics due to high alumina content (72% to 97%)

-Extremely low non-fiber particle contaminant (“shots”) content

 * Temperature limits vary by product type. A product’s heat-resistance may not be fully demonstrated in certain usage conditions.
