Refractory & Casting

Take the heat without cracking

With the introduction of low cement castable refractories in the 1970s came an increase in explosive spalling. MiniFIBERS offers a range of products to help overcome this concern. Our fibers can help increase safety, improve product quality, and reduce waste.

By allowing proper exhaust of moisture vapors and volatile gases, Ventylene™ and Refrac™ fibers can minimize cracking, pinholes, cold shut, stomata and cavities, and can help prevent explosions.

In investment casting slurries, our tiny three-dimensional Short Stuff® products can be used to build rheology and reduce sag, resulting in a consistent, even casting structure while reducing the potential for fragmentation in finely detailed areas of the mold.

Potential Uses

  • Castables
