Hi Phoenix,
Your assumption that S-glass is significantly stronger than E-glass is correct (the AGY website can give you actual values). It is however, much more expensive than E-glass and you will need to factor this into your calculations. As a guide, the S-glass fabric we use is approx 6...
The best material I have used for high temperature insulation is Microtherm (http://www.microtherm.us). The material is rated to >1800°F so 700°F should be no problem.

Paisan,
The effect of porosity depends on the size of the pores, the temperature and the thermal conductivity of the material in question.
The optimum insulation material will depend on the temperature range you are interested in. If you can supply more details e.g. application...
Have you thought of using a woven glass scrim? You may need a hydrophobic finish to protect it from steam damage which can occur at surprisingly low temperatures in the right/wrong conditions (we have seen it as low as 200°C)but otherwise temperature should not be a problem.
The main glass...
Rembrandt/rustbuster1,
Thanks for taking the time to reply to my question. To clear up a few areas where I was unspecific, the paint/coating I am looking for would be applied at ambient temperature and exposed to 200°C in service in a clean room environment. The paint is to be used to cover an...
Thanks for the reply YM. Unfortunately, the application for which I am looking to use high silica fibres cannot possibly support the cost of quartz fibre. The fibres are to be used as a high temperature reinforcement for composites (hence the desired small diameter) so I would be more...
There is loads of product data on the Rockwool website, www.rockwool.com. If you can't find what you are looking for on there, the research labs in Denmark should be able to help you out.
