Vermiculite Coated Fiberglass Fabric
1. Product Overview
Vermiculite coated fiberglass fabric is a specialized high-temperature industrial textile engineered from a precision woven E-glass substrate impregnated and coated with a formulated vermiculite dispersion. The vermiculite coating forms a rigid, heat-reflective protective barrier over the fiberglass cloth, enabling it to withstand continuous extreme temperatures up to 1000°C and direct flame impingement without melting or emitting toxic smoke. This makes it an ideal, high-performance alternative to asbestos and heavy ceramic textiles for demanding thermal containment and fire safety applications.
