One-pot low-temperature preparation of thermo-responsive self-ceramifiable glass fiber insulation tiles with exceptional mechanical and ablative properties by Fengchun Ji, Zhihang Peng, Xin Yang, Jian Feng, Yang Xiang, Zeyu Liu

“…The study first introduces a novel thermo-responsive self-ceramifiable glass fiber rigid insulation tile (GFRIT) characterized by low forming temperature (150 °C), low density (0.435 g/cm3), high compressive strength (1.58 MPa), and low thermal conductivity (0.0553 W/(m·K)) in normal circumstances. Interestingly, it can spontaneously transform into high-strength semi-crystalline ceramics at elevated temperatures. …”
