What are the production methods and technologies for ceramic fiber products?

Ceramic fiber products are produced using various methods and technologies, primarily focused on creating lightweight, heat-resistant materials. The main production methods include: 1. Spinning processes, where molten glass is spun into fibers, similar to the way cotton candy is made. 2. Blowing processes, where gases are used to form the fibers. 3. Extrusion processes, where the material is forced through a die to create continuous fibers. Key technologies include the use of high-temperature furnaces to melt raw materials, precise control of chemical compositions to achieve desired properties, and advanced shaping and forming techniques to create various product shapes. Additionally, environmental controls are crucial to manage emissions and ensure worker safety during production.
