  2. Refractory metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractory_metals

    Refractory metals are a class of metals that are extraordinarily resistant to heat and wear. The expression is mostly used in the context of materials science , metallurgy and engineering . The definition of which elements belong to this group differs.

  3. Refractory materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractory

    Refractory bricks in a torpedo car used for hauling molten iron. In materials science, a refractory (or refractory material) is a material that is resistant to decomposition by heat or chemical attack and that retains its strength and rigidity at high temperatures. [1]

  4. Starlite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starlite

    White sands test sample, owned by Thermashield, LLC. Starlite is an intumescent material said to be able to withstand and insulate from extreme heat. It was invented by British hairdresser and amateur chemist Maurice Ward (1933–2011) during the 1970s and 1980s, and received significant publicity after coverage of the material aired in 1990 on the BBC science and technology show Tomorrow's ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductance_and...

    Building insulation: Understanding thermal resistance helps in designing energy-efficient buildings with effective insulation materials to reduce heat transfer. Electronics cooling: Thermal resistance is crucial for designing heat sinks and thermal management systems in electronic devices to prevent overheating. Calculating thermal conductance ...

  6. Ultra-high temperature ceramic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high_temperature_ceramic

    Ultra-high-temperature ceramics (UHTCs) are a type of refractory ceramics that can withstand extremely high temperatures without degrading, often above 2,000 °C. [1] They also often have high thermal conductivities and are highly resistant to thermal shock, meaning they can withstand sudden and extreme changes in temperature without cracking or breaking.

  7. Borosilicate glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borosilicate_glass

    Guitar slide made of borosilicate glass. Borosilicate glass is a type of glass with silica and boron trioxide as the main glass-forming constituents. Borosilicate glasses are known for having very low coefficients of thermal expansion (≈3 × 10 −6 K −1 at 20 °C), making them more resistant to thermal shock than any other common glass.
