RCF Fiber Class. Kaowool Millboard products are processed from a slurry consisting of Kaowool ceramic fibers, fillers and binders. The fiber raw material is kaolin, a naturally occurring high-purity alumina-silica fireclay. Kaowool Millboard products are strong, thin, durable ceramic fiber based boards having a variety of high-temperature applications. Although these products were formulated and designed to replace asbestos millboard, their potential use extends into more conventional refractory fiber applications. Their use should be considered whenever there is a need for a thin, durable board with excellent insulating characteristics. Kaowool 830 Millboard was specifically designed for use in the iron and steel industry as a molten contact product. It has proven to be excellent for use as a one shot casting mold liner for both stools and ingot molds because of the unique combination of organic and inorganic binders. This 40 pcf (641 kg/m3), 0.16" (4 mm) product produces an exceptionally smooth surface finish on cast metal pieces when compared to those surfaces produced by sand casting or cast using other board products. Applications: - High-temperature gaskets (all grades) One-shot casting mold liner for stools and ingot molds (grade 830)
- Molten metal contact applications in the iron and steel industries (grade 830)
- Molten metal contact applications in the non-ferrous industries (grade 830)
