Material Description
PROMASIL®-1000 is a lightweight calcium silicate insulating board.
It is asbestos free. In combination with lightweight refractory bricks or refractory concrete,
PROMASIL®-1000 is an ideal construction material in read linings.
As is generally known, the low thermal shock resistance of calcium silicate excludes its use on the front side.
Advantages and Properties
 |
low thermal conductivity |
|
high thermal resistance |
|
low thermal shrinkage |
|
low bulk density |
|
protective gas-resistant (CO, NH3, H2,
N2 and CH4) |
|
free of sulphur and low in iron |
In modern production plants, the patented manufacturing process guarantees constant PROMASIL®
quality above the requirements of ASTM and DIN standards.
Area of Application
PROMASIL® insulating boards and pipe sections are used in all industrial branches
of refractory building for ambitious mechanical and thermal rear linings.
