  • Abstract
    A limited number of inorganic insulations has been available to the designer, as compared with the variety of organic materials on the market today. The development of terratex, a thin, totally inorganic paper-like sheet, fills a gap in the inorganic insulation field. Laboratory tests and four years of service experience indicate that its excellent high-temperature characteristics and other properties may be utilized wherever it is advantageous to use inorganic insulation.
