BIOLÖSLICHE ANORGANISCHE FASERN UND GLIMMERBINDEMITTEL ENTHANTENDE ZUSAMMENSETZUNGEN

摘要

Compositions that include a mixture of biosoluble inorganic fibers and a micaceous binder are described. The compositions can be prepared free of refractory ceramic fibers that are respirable but durable in a physiological medium. The compositions are typically in the form of a sheet material or a paste and can be used, for example, as a protective packing material around the pollution control element or as an insulating material in the end cone region in a pollution control device. Sheet materials formed from the compositions have an area of a X-Y plane that decrease less than about 6 percent when heated to about 900° C.
