Nextel Ceramic Fabric

Typical applications application 3m nextel ceramic fabrics 312 440 continuous use temperature 2192 f 1200 c 2372 f 1300 c aerospace.

Nextel ceramic fabric. If a fire should occur firewalls made of nextel ceramic fabrics have proved to meet the faa s 2000ºf 1093ºc 15 minute flame penetration requirement at a lighter weight and with easier maintenance than metal shields. The nextel 3m fabrics are the only continuous ceramic fabrics for temperatures up to 1400 c. Made of continuous ceramic oxide fibers nextel products are available in a variety of forms including chopped fibers sewing threads braided sleevings and woven fabrics. Nextel ceramic fabrics are services offered by 3m.

Engineered to perform at continuous temperatures of 2000 f 1093 c or higher depending on application and composition 3m nextel ceramic fibers and textiles are typically used for high temp insulation in aerospace outer space and industrial applications. Stronger than aluminum fireproof and able to withstand meteoroids nextel is the wonder ceramic fabric that protects nasa s space shuttles and keeps satellites from getting smashed to pieces. Composed of continuous fibers of polycrystalline metal oxide with filaments between 10 and 12 μm based on sol gel technology.
