Conventional industrial binders, such as Portland cement, contain organic or metallic elements that have been calcinated at high temperatures and mixed with intermediate minerals such as gypsum. Some cement blends may also comprise recovered materials from industrial processing such as furnace slag and fly ash. The resultant powder mixture may be used to mix concrete [...]
Mechanical gaskets are used to seal the voids and mating surfaces between components in high-temperature applications. The mating surfaces of furnace doors, flues, or thermal piping must be correctly sealed to maintain optimal levels of device efficiency and reduce the impact of energy wastage and environmental emissions. This is often achieved via the application of [...]
High-temperature masonry comes in multiple forms, from thermodynamically stable firebricks to castable refractory cement that are formulated from thermally resistant clinker and specialized aggregate materials. Conventional cements are often used in the manufacturing of fireplaces and furnaces, but they do not exhibit the requisite thermodynamic stability for application within the heating chamber or for direct [...]
Airbag fabrics are typically high-strength woven materials that can retain their physical integrity against rapid inflation by an inert gas to cushion impacts. Nylon textiles are among the most common fabrics used to weave airbag cushions for general manufacturing and automotive applications. However, conventional component arrangements have significant drawbacks that have forced manufacturers to explore [...]
High-performance thermal seals are characterized as flexible materials with exceptional mechanical resistance to the corrosive elements inherent in high-temperature applications. This requires fabricated materials with a good balance of malleability and mechanical toughness to provide the requisite formability for sealing mating surfaces and voids in thermal components. Direct resistance to smoke corrosion, flame impingement, and [...]
Tadpole gaskets are unique thermal sealing solutions comprised of a heat-resistant cover and a durable core material arranged in a distinctive bulb and tail structure. The external material, typically thermally-resistant, is wrapped around the core material to form a cylindrical bulb. The edges of the tape or fabric are then fused together to form the [...]
Welding curtains are a rounded solution to many of the issues presented by metal joinery procedures, offering protection to process bystanders from the sparks and vibrant light generated as a byproduct from the weld. Conventional welding methodologies involve fusing two or more metal components together through gas flame, electric arc, or other high-temperature joining methodologies. [...]
Die-cutting is the sophisticated process of machining flexible materials for industrial applications. It involves feeding a web of material through a shearing chamber, where cutting components will either perforate shapes into the fabric or cut the material down to size. It is regularly applied in the thermal insulation sector to form sealants such as die-cut [...]
Industry and the environment are antonymic concepts. Energy-intensive industrial processes produce millions of cubic tons of harmful greenhouse gasses every year, notwithstanding their effluent production materials nor potentially damaging extraction protocols. Numerous environmental policies, improved industry regulations, and advanced materials for thermal insulation have been applied to help improve the sustainability of crucial industry sectors, [...]
Metalworking industries around the world are characterized by high thermal and abrasive processes. Molten metals are heated to refractory temperatures in mantles or crucibles, and transported to resistant molds to form coils, slabs, and plate products. These are then cooled and conveyed through further processing equipment to prepare products for final application. Temperatures throughout these [...]
