MONOLUX®
MONOLUX is a high-density calcium silicate with a density of 950 kg/m3.
It comes in the form of rigid panels with low thermal conductivity.
Its A1 fire classification (EN 13501) makes it suitable for industrial fire-stop applications.
Easy to machine, MONOLUX is particularly well suited to the manufacture of machined parts for thermal and dielectric insulation, such as inductor and resistor supports, radiation shields, furnace and oven walls, and thermal bridge breaks ( SANPON flanges).
