  • Patent number: 7172202
    Abstract: A spherical annular seal member (1) has a seal body (4) in which a heat-resistant material (2) and a reinforcing member (3) made of a metal wire have been compressed to fill meshes of the metal wire net of the reinforcing member (3) with the heat-resistant material (2) such that the heat-resistant material (2) and the reinforcing member (3) are integrally formed in mixed form. The seal body (4) has a cylindrical inner peripheral surface (6) defining a through hole (5); an outer peripheral surface (10) constituted by a partially convex spherical surface (7); and annular end faces (8, 9) respectively provided on a large-diameter side and a small-diameter side of the partially convex spherical surface (7). In the seal body (4), the reinforcing member (3) and the heat-resistant material (2) are respectively contained at a rate of 15 to 80 wt. % and at a rate of 20 to 85 wt. %. The heat-resistant material (2) in the seal body (4) has a density of 1.20 g/cm3 to 2.00 g/cm3.

  • Publication number: 20050208305
    Abstract: An object of this invention is to provide an expanded graphite sheet which shows a low oxidative ablation factor in the air even when exposed to the air under high temperature conditions of 700° C. or higher for a long time and which is excellent in heat resistance and satisfactory in other properties required by this kind of expanded graphite sheet. The object of the invention can be achieved due to the presence of phosphorus pentoxide and phosphate in the sheet.
