Description
One of the comments, when customers start working with our standard SoliPaper ULS-grade, was that it was much stronger compared to standard high temperature fiber paper In some large volume gasket applications this high strength and density was not required which led to the development of the lower density, but more economical, SoliPaper LOWPAC.
Utilizing an optimized production process, we are able to create a product close dimension tolerances, exceptionally low dust, high handling strength, and improved thermal insulating performance. SoliPaper LOWPAC is particulary suited to all applications requiring further processing (laminated composites, die-cutting, rolling, folding).
As SoliPaper LOWPAC (like the normal SoliPaper ULS) is manufactured based on our SoliWool ULS, it also has a classification temperature of 2300°F and is recommended for use till 2000°F continuously.
SoliPaper LOWPAC is using organic binders which burn out on the first firing, starting at approximately 500°F.
All products in the SoliWool ULS fiber product range, like the SoliPaper LOWPAC, meet the requirements specified under NOTE Q of European Regulation 1272/2008. SoliPaper LOWPAC products are therefore exonerated from labelling requirements in Europe.
Next to the SoliPaper in the low bio persistence grade (LBP) we also offer a standard range of RCF(-Zr) Papers from 2300 to 2600°F and special paper grades using PCW fibers up till 2950°F.
