A ceramic fiber insulation material is disclosed. It is prepared from a precursor blend generally comprising a gelled colloid and a ceramic fiber filler. Other filler, e.g., other fiber of refractory material, is contemplated, particularly when mixed with ceramic fiber. The gelled colloid ban be formed such as by mixing a gelling agent with a colloid of inorganic oxide or by blending anionic colloid with cationic colloid. The gelling agent is typically nonionic and watersoluble. The blend is trowelable, pumpable and possesses excellent adhesive characteristics including. the ability to stick to most surfaces, including metal surfaces. The blend is also virtually shrink-free during drying and, after drying, can provide the insulation material. |
