Reinforced ceramic fibre. Nextel fibres ... have a continuous filament range with strong thermo-mechanical properties that allow continuous processing at temperatures from 900°C up to 1,370°C. They are made of alumine, borax and silica and are available in tow ... For composite end-uses with ceramic matrix, a Siconex fibre is available made of Nextel fibre with a silicium carbide matrix. This material has a strong resistance to high temperatures ... to thermic shocks and to mechanical strain and stress ...The Siconex main end-uses are heat recuperation equipments and incinerators.

OBS

There are two kinds of reinforced ceramic fibres: Nextel fibre and Siconex fibre.
