Thermal treatment temp is higher at least 20 ℃ than devitrification temperature (be ceramic fiber when amorphous material becomes crystallite or crystalline material temperature), and at least 30 ℃, at least 40 ℃, at least 50 ℃, at least 60 ℃, at least 70 ℃, at least 80 ℃, at least 90 ℃ or at least 100 ℃.Can determine suitable ceramic fiber heat treatment time and temperature by differential thermal analysis (DTA) technology.For aluminium oxide-silicon oxide fibre, temperature is usually at 700 to 1200 ℃, and 800 to 1200 ℃, in the scope of 900 to 1200 ℃ or 950 to 1200 ℃.
With contain crystallite, the ceramic fiber of crystal or its mixing region is compared, complete unbodied ceramic fiber can produce usually greatly and to shrink.When amorphous fiber was made molded said three-dimensional body, remarkable contraction can take place when polluting the high temperature that can reach in the control device being heated in this product.Use when containing the lagging material of amorphous fiber in the terminal cone zone of polluting control device, the lagging material that shrinks because of heating can move between the terminal conoidal Shell inboard and the outside.This mobile meeting is broken lagging material, the forfeiture heat-blocking action.
At least the made molded three-dimensional insulator of ceramic fiber that contains part crystal or crystallite can be repeated to be heated to the Applicable temperature that pollutes control device, cooling then.Crystallite or crystalline ceramic fiber have ability to bear for the further contraction that meeting influences the thermally-insulated body performance.
For through heat treated ceramic fiber, there is poising action between the fragility of fiber and the low-shrinkage.Crystal or micro crystal material ceramic fiber are more crisp than amorphous ceramic fiber.The lagging material of being made by crystal or micro-crystalline ceramic fiber compares easier fracture of thermally-insulated body of being made by amorphous fiber.On the other hand, crystal or micro-crystalline ceramic fiber can have lower shrinking percentage than amorphous ceramic fiber.
