What is the composition of ceramic fiber blankets?

Ceramic fiber blankets are typically composed of alumina-silica fibers. These fibers are made from a combination of alumina (Al2O3) and silica (SiO) mixed with small amounts of other additives such as binders and binders. The specific composition the ceramic fiber blanket can vary depending on the manufacturer and the intended application.

Generally, ceramic fiber blankets have a high percentage of alumina (around 45-60%) and silica (around35-50%). The addition of other additives helps to improve the properties of the blanket, such its strength, flexibility, and thermal conductivity.
It's worth noting that there are also specialty ceramic fiber blankets available that are made from other ceramic materials, such as zirconia (Zr2) or mullite (3Al2O3-2SiO2). These blankets may have different compositions and enhanced properties tailored for specific high-temperature applications.
