Sindanio Sheet Syndanio sheet High Density Arc and Heat Resistant Boards are manufactured from carefully selected and treated Raw Asbestos Fibre and special grades of cement. The particular properties of the material are obtained by maintaining precision control of the blend, rate of mixing, addition of predetermined quantities of water and chemicals and then compressing the mix into sheet form under extremely high pressure. The sheets are then kept for maturing for several weeks under conditions of controlled humidity and temperature.
DISTINCTIVE PROPERTIES
Sindanio Sheet Syndanio sheet High Density Boards are versatile materials which combine the following distinctive properties not available in any other individual material:
Good thermal stability at high temperatures
Low contact thermal shock thus eliminating fracture in items like glass components
Low thermal conductivity
High temperature resistance
Good anti-tracking properties
High arc resistance
Ability to withstand high frequencies
High strength even at high temperatures
Extremely hardwearing leading to long product life cycle.
Easy machineable without splitting or chipping
Easy fixing by fasteners or adhesives
Suitability as fire check barriers
Good alkali resistance
Non ?metallic thus controlling problem of induced currents
Availability in high thickness blocks of up to 100 mm leading to convenient manufacturing of components
Non-rusting
APPLICATIONS
