Ceramic Fiber Application Research

Abstract

Ceramic fiber is a kind of fibrous lightweight refractory with many advantages of light weight, thermostability, good heat stability, low thermal conductivity, small specific heat, and resistance to mechanical vibration and so on. As a result of them, it has been used widely in lots of fields, such as machinery, metallurgy, chemical industry, oil, ceramics, glass and electron. From the aspect of the ceramic fiber development, in this essay, the types and preparation methods of ceramic fiber have been listed one by one, and the author focused on analyzing the development trend of ceramic fiber and the application in papermaking industry.

Conformal Structured Ceramic Textiles with Passive and Active Heating Functionality

“…In order to fulfill dual-mode solar and joule heating in harsh cold environments (Figure a), a conformal polypyrrole@Al 2 O 3 ceramic fiber fabric is designed. The Al 2 O 3 ceramic fiber fabric had the advantages of flexibility, high-temperature resistance, and strong thermal stability. , In contrast, the PPy had the advantages of good conductive properties, excellent optical properties, , strong adhesion to fiber, and easy synthesis. , According to the amount of pyrrole in the synthesis process, the prepared composite ceramic fiber fabric was denoted as PPy@Al 2 O 3 -n, where n is the mass concentration of pyrrole monomer in the reaction solution. The optical photos of the synthetic PPy@Al 2 O 3 ceramic fiber fabric are shown in Figure c, in which the ceramic fiber fabric in Figure c (1–4) was Al 2 O 3 , PPy@Al 2 O 3 -10, PPy@Al 2 O 3 -20, and PPy@Al 2 O 3 -40 successively.…”
