The Materialism podcast covers things like the unlikely discovery of superglue or Teflon and also reveals the fascinating backstories about modern biomaterials like dialysis filters. In these podcasts, Taylor Sparks and Andrew Falkowski of the University of Utah are investigating materials science and engineering by exploring cutting edge materials technology, the history of different materials, the commercialization of new materials, and exciting advances in processing and characterization. They include updates on exciting new technologies including wearable electronics, next-generation batteries, and nanomaterials. In short, Materialism podcasts hope to help listeners understand the critical role that materials have played in society and even glimpse into what the future may hold for new materials.
The term Refractory Ceramic Fibers (RCFs) was adopted as the original fibers were made by fusing calcined kaolin at a temperature approaching °F (°C) and then fiberizing a stream of the molten material. By analogy with traditional pottery processes, which also use kaolin, the name ceramic was chosen.
The use of High Temperature Insulation Wools increased substantially in the s. Their popularity stemmed from a combination of fast-rising energy costs and growing awareness of their benefits which include excellent heat resistance, low thermal conductivity, excellent thermal shock resistance, low mass and great flexibility.
For example, industrial furnace operators realized that they could greatly reduce their energy consumption and costs by replacing conventional hard refractories with RCF. The hard refractories had to be kept constantly hot, even when industrial production was not on stream, while with the use of RCF linings, operators could provide a more stable temperature and faster temperature increase when needed to begin production. This replacement was cost effective, in spite of the fact that the RCF products were relatively expensive at the time.
Since the s, HTIWs have also been used in the automotive industry, in the production of exhaust systems, catalytic converters and more recently diesel particulate filters. Such products play a key role in reducing harmful emissions from vehicles and in improving air quality for the general public. A small but important proportion of HTIW products is used in the production of various fire protection and fire prevention products.
Due to the ambiguity of the term ceramic and the development of new materials for the high-temperature range, the nomenclature was changed to High Temperature Insulation Wools (HTIWs) at the end of the s.
