LDF Paper


Non-Respirable Fiber Paper
Contains No Asbestos

 

LDF PAPER is a light weight insulation material processed from high temperature, nonrespirable fibers formed into a highly flexible sheet. It is recommended for continuous use at temperatures up to 760°C (1400°F). LDF PAPER is processed from quasi continuous, non-respirable fibers and therefore offers very low thermal conductivity due to its low content of unfiberized material. It is designed for use in applications requiring an alternative to man-made vitreous blown or spun fibers products.

LDF PAPER contains an organic binder to provide increased handling strength at room temperature. It possesses excellent chemical stability and resists attack from most corrosive agents. Exceptions are hydrofluoric and phosphoric acids and concentrated alkalis.

LDF PAPER is used in automotive, appliance and consumer equipment industries. If it becomes wet due to water, steam or oil, its physical and thermal properties will return upon drying. It contains no water of combination.

 

Advantages:
 

   Easy to cut, wrap, or form

   Lightweight
   Temperature stability    Thermal shock resistance
   Low thermal conductivity    High heat reflectance
   Low heat storage    High tensile strength
   Resilient    Excellent corrosion resistance
   Non-irritating
