Aluminum silicate fibers

Table 6 lists the three principal natural fibers. But of the three fibers only asbestos is a true natural fiber. Glass and aluminum silicate fibers require human intervention in their processing, and might be better considered man-made fibers. [Pg.497]

The high frictional coefficient (0.4 to 0.5 compared with < 0.1 for glass fibers) of asbestos fibers is crucial to its utilization in the frictional lining sector. In the manufacture of brake and clutch linings 20 to 60% asbestos is incorporated together with fillers, metal chips and preferably phenol resins and rubber into a composite material, which has to satisfy many requirements. Currently there are asbestos-free so-called semimetallic brake linings, which consist of mixtures of metal fibers, metal powders, cellulose fibers, aluminum silicate fibers and mineral wool bonded with synthetic resins. [Pg.363]

Synthetics and mineral fibers have other parallels. A few synthesized fibers show a higher level or secondary ordering of the crystalline structure, such as that described for chrysotile. Composed entirely of carbon, graphite fibers are synthetic fibers with such a secondary structure (see the following section). Tubular fibers of other compositions, such as aluminum silicate polymers, have also been synthesized (Farmer et al., 1977). [Pg.87]

Thermal insulators comprise an equally broad range of materials. Such inorganics as mineral fibers, magnesia, aluminum silicate, cellulose, and glass fibers are widely used for steam and hot-water pipes, furnaces, and blown-in home insulation. Organic products that are effective include plastic foams (polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene) and cellular rubber. There are a number of materials that may be called double insulators, since they have both electrical and thermal insulating properties,... [Pg.691]
