3M™ Nextel™ 720 Chopped Fibers
Alumina-Mullite Ceramic Fiber for High-Temperature Reinforcement & Insulation
3M™ Nextel™ 720 Chopped Fibers are high-performance ceramic reinforcement fibers designed for applications requiring excellent thermal stability, creep resistance, and mechanical reinforcement in extreme temperature environments.
Made from alumina–mullite ceramic fibers, these chopped fibers provide exceptional thermal durability, oxidation resistance, and long-term structural stability.
With reliable performance at temperatures between 1200°C and 1300°C, Nextel™ 720 chopped fibers are widely used in aerospace structures, industrial furnaces, and advanced composite materials.
What Are Nextel™ 720 Chopped Fibers?
Nextel™ 720 chopped fibers consist of short segments derived from continuous alumina–mullite ceramic filaments. These fibers are engineered to enhance mechanical strength, crack resistance, and thermal performance in high-temperature composites, refractory materials, and insulation systems.
