Can ceramic fiber fabrics be used in sports equipment?

Ceramic fiber fabrics, known for their heat resistance and durability, are not commonly used in sports equipment due to their brittleness and lack of flexibility. Sports equipment typically requires materials that are flexible, lightweight, and able to withstand repeated stress without breaking. While ceramic fibers excel in high-temperature applications, they are less suitable for the dynamic and impact-heavy demands of sports. However, there may be niche applications where their heat-resistant properties are beneficial, such as in certain types of protective gear.
