Hi-Nicalon

Hi-Nicalon™ SiC Fiber is a multi-filament silicon carbide-type fiber manufactured by NGS Advanced Fibers Co., Ltd. (NGS) of Japan. NGS is known worldwide as the leading manufacturer and innovator of multifilament silicon carbide-type fibers. HINICALON™ is manufactured near-oxygen-free using electron-beam curing. The fiber is homogeneously composed of ultra-fine beta-SiC crystallites and carbon. The fiber has excellent strength and modulus properties, and has higher thermal stability than NICALON™.

Hi-Nicalon™ Type S SiC Fiber is a multifilament silicon carbide-type fiber manufactured by NGS Advanced Fibers Co., Ltd. (NGS) of Japan. NGS is known worldwide as the leading manufacturer and innovator of multi-filament silicon carbide-type fibers. HI-NICALON™ TYPE S is a stoichiometric beta-SiCfiber manufactured near-oxygen-free using decarbonization pyrolysis and electron-beam curing. It has higher modulus, creep resistance and oxidationresistance than Hi-NICALON™.HI-NICALON™ TYPE S is highly resistant to oxidation and chemical attack and is available in a variety of product forms, depending on the intended use.
