Abstract
A ceramic fiber product and method for manufacturing a ceramic fiber product for severe refractory environments. The method includes the steps of saturating a dry ceramic fiber material having an initial thickness with water or a nonbinding aqueous solution and squeezing the wetted ceramic fiber material to a latent compressed state having a thickness less than the initial dry thickness and removing liquid from the ceramic fiber material during the compressing step. The ceramic fiber is made of a material that springs back towards its initial dry thickness after drying. A monolithic ceramic fiber structure made from the ceramic fiber product is also described, as well as a kit for making a ceramic fiber structure and fasteners for attaching the product to a support form of the structure.
