Refractory Sheet suits applications in excess of 1,650°F.
Press Release Summary:
Consisting of medium-density, fiber-reinforced ceramic composite material with greater than 99% Alpha-Alumina purity, Type RS-99 is suited for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells and setters for P/M and MIM sintering applications. Fired density of 130 lb/ft³ allows it to be machined to tight tolerances with standard tooling. Type RS-99M is highly plastic moldable sheet. Type RS-99W can be moistened with water and molded into desired shape, while Type RS-99R is prefired and unaffected by moisture.

ZRCI Introduces High Strength Alumina Composite
ZIRCAR Refractory Composites, Inc., (ZRCI), Florida, NY, USA is proud to announce the introduction of Refractory Sheet Type RS-99. Type RS-99 is a medium-density fiber reinforced ceramic composite material with greater than 99% Alpha-Alumina purity. It has a fired density of 2.1 gm/cc (130 lb/ft3) which allows it to be machined to tight tolerances with standard tooling, and is useful for applications in excess of 1650°C (3002°F).
Type RS-99's high Alumina content is ideal for high vacuum, reducing atmospheres and other applications where silica cannot be tolerated, such as in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells and setters for P/M and MIM sintering applications. Refractory Sheet Type RS-99 is available in three versions:
o Type RS-99M is a highly plastic moldable sheet ideally suited for forming custom geometry.
o Type RS-99W boards can be moistened with water and molded into any desired shape. After low temperature bake-out of 300°C (570°F) material is unaffected by moisture.
o Type RS-99R boards are prefired and are unaffected by moisture. They remain rigid even if saturated with water.
