Abstract
A novel fibrous porous mullite network with a quasi-layered microstructure was produced by a simple vacuum squeeze moulding technique. The effects of organic binder content, inorganic binder and adsorbent on the microstructure and the room-temperature thermal and mechanical properties of fibrous porous mullite ceramics were systematically investigated. An anisotropy microstructure without agglomeration and layering was achieved. The fibrous porous mullite ceramics reported in this study exhibited low density (0.40g/cm3), low thermal conductivity (~0.095W/(mK)), and high compressive strength (~2.1MPa in the x/y direction). This study reports an optimal processing method for the production of fibrous porous ceramics, which have the potential for use as high-temperature thermal insulation material.
