Ceramic Fibre Paper

Introduction

KSG ceramic fiber paper product line is a unique family of products which is manufactured by forming alumina silicate fibers in a nonwoven matrix. The ceramic fibers are randomly orientated during manufacture, and then held in place with a latex binder system.

KSG specialized paper making process is statistically controlled to form uniform, lightweight, flexible sheets. By blending different fibers, binders, and additives while varying the manufacturing process.

KSG now produces a variety of KSG paper products for a wide range of applications. KSG papers exhibit excellent chemical stability, resisting attack from most corrosive agents. Exceptions are hydrofluoric, phosphoric acids and concentrated alkalis.

KSG papers are wet by water or steam, all thermal and physical properties are completely restored upon drying. No water of hydration is present in most KSG paper grades. Our papers have good dielectric strengths. KSG papers, with the exception of the inorganic series, will generate small amounts of smoke and trace element outgassing during the initial exposure to temperatures above 450°F.
