Increased awareness surrounding energy consumption is challenging refractory manufacturers to create products of smaller volume weight with superior heat-insulating properties. In this paper, the author describes heat-insulating silica and its application in the glass industry. Attention is paid to its history, today's product ranges and development trends in the manufacture of heat-insulating silica.
