Alumina-Silica Type UNIFORM C General Information ZIRCAR Ceramics’ Alumina-Silica Type UNIFORM C is a unique family of ceramic-fiber-based insulations with exceptional machinability and very good strength. UNIFORM C products are made of a blend of alpha-alumina polycrystalline fiber and specially prepared refractory ceramic fiber (RCF) with an inorganic amorphous silica binder. This binder is uniformly distributed throughout the thickness of the body without the use of any organic binders and therefore, UNIFORM C produces no smoke or odor when heated. Uniform products are designed to deliver low thermal conductivity with excellent thermal shock resistance. UNIFORM C is manufactured in two varieties: UNIFORM C1, with a bulk density of 0.29 g/cc (18 pcf) and UNIFORM C2, with a bulk density of 0.45 g/cc (28 pcf). UNIFORM C exhibits excellent resistance to chemical attack and is not affected by oil or water. It is, however, affected by hydrofluoric acid, phosphoric acid and strong alkalis. Characteristics & Properties Type: Uniform The data presented herein is intended to help the user to determine the appropriateness of this material for their application. This data is a nominal representation of this product's properties and characteristics and therefore should not be used in preparing specifications. * Maximum use temperature is dependent on variables such as stresses, both thermal and mechanical, and the chemical environment that the material experiences. ** Properties expressed parallel to thickness. f Properties expressed perpendicular to thickness.
