Excellent insulation at temperatures above 2000℃! SGL's graphite molded insulation materials 【MFA】/【RFA】.
The molded insulation material MFA/RFA is based on rayon-based carbon fibers. Rayon-based fibers have a large surface area and high radiation effectiveness. Therefore, they can exhibit higher insulation performance. <Main Features> ◎ Excellent insulation performance ◎ High-temperature stability ◎ Lightweight ◎ High purity (ash content < 20ppm) ◎ Two types: short fibers (MFA) and long fibers (RFA) ◎ Surface protection with various coatings
