Ceramic fibre in 1990s: AES
Early kaolin-based ceramic fibres in the US. Keep Ceramic fibre with “AES” and 1260 from 1990s. Furnace lining without firebrick thickness. Anchored folded blankets for petrochemical heaters.
This atlas treats Ceramic fibre as a system: mill route, coatings, tests and the cavity it sits in. Conductivity note: λ rises with T; still far below brick. Insulation score 80/100 is relative to 32 entries — metals lose, VIPs and aerogels win. Fire letter in editorial use: A1. Do not equate A1 with “safe in a blaze” or E with “illegal”. Assemblies decide.
Origin: 1940s–60s US/JP; EU RCF classification 1990s, United States / Japan / EU. The process chapter follows feedstock → conversion → forming → finish → install. Uses span buildings to defence / safety. Pairings matter: mineral-wool. Circularity mark 34/100. Ask which scrap, which certificate, which year.
Related atlas entries, a short glossary, and three threads that keep Ceramic fibre honest. Thin-film steel protection vs fibre wraps. EN 13501-1 reaction-to-fire letter (A1–F), not a wall rating. Thermal conductivity in W/m·K. Lower means better bulk insulation. Declared performance after blowing-agent or moisture drift.
The label keeps Ceramic fibre, 1990s, and 1260. “AES” is the condition on the figure. Keep Ceramic fibre with “AES” and 1260 from 1990s. 12601990s
