The problem with adding sodium to a ceramic composite is that it actually functions as a flux and lowers the melting point of the material. Try cooking a sponge cake with a lot of magnesium oxide or alumina added to it then heat slices of it to 1000 C in a vacuum and you will have an very interesting material.
Possible to make it wearable? I noticed they’re all bricks. I worked in a copper mill hot side and the silver suits (light radiation fr suits) felt like they did nothing add a little bit of this and I have a feeling it would be much cooler because all that heat isn’t hitting as directly now.
You wont believe this but I knew a guy who had a sample of the original Starlite and they did re-create it at COIC ceramics in SanDiego. He didn't speak well of it, because it's too weak, so I've been working on finding something even better. The solution is probably a lot more complicated than you'd like to hear. The problem with all those you show, even when using wool, is that it wont keep uniform and will form cracks and valleys which look nothing like the original material, which was obviously very plastic like. I've found that adding aluminum and some copper will produce a more plastic like expansion, but there are other oxides you will find useful in forming some interesting eutectics. The thing about Al/Cu is that they form those fibers like you get from wool, if they are allowed to form slowly at a thick consistency!!! Nickel and gold form a eutectic, for example. You might consider just mixing every single possibility in small batches to see which one survives the best. Use all oxides you can get as well as silicon dioxide mixes. Titanium carbonitride shows promise. Silicon nitride+iron is my favorite. If you can get that to form it's lovely long fibers correctly, it beats everything I've seen. I made a few batches of this in a simple microwave and it did expand too fast, so I suspect you need to do this another way; or just using a very low power microwave or just making a large batch. At high temperatures, nitrogen reacts with hydrogen to form ammonia and with oxygen to form nitrogen oxide. I doubt you want ammonia, so NO2 from pure oxygen is all that's left. Instead of using a pure oxy flame though, I'd suggest an hho flame which you can make from something like a Joe Cell, for example, because it's going to provide an ion state that'll let nitrogen bond with silica instead of oxygen for a short time. It's either that, or you'll have to depend on static electricity from a high velocity flame to grow hairs of starlite v2. A klystron microwave would let you control the frequency which also gives new possibilities with oxide arrangements, especially when using a pair of them beamed into a chamber at 90d angle , forming an RF hologram of sorts. It has superior charge field control/containment, therefore can make the oxides form all types of cymatic patterns as they cool, but also stretch between 2 frequencies to form super fibers, like David Adair described having made for him in a space shuttle zero g experiment with sound. There is a super metal eutectic recipe that's really hard to make and requires a few steps. I lost the recipe, but that one would hold up to 20k F no problem. I figure the guys at COIC were the ones who crashed my hd to wipe that recipe off there.
You need to add costs for each and test for water solubility... if they get wet are they damaged/affected. What was the ceramic wool made of specifically ("ceramic" doesn't describe which kind or a source). Thank you for the video and the test!!!
you can't just paint any of those onto a surface though, and that was what starlite was good for, try making something like that and instead paint the egg that he did, and after 5 minutes on the torch check to see if the egg is still not cooked inside? that is the story of what dude had.
I know the story of starlite. And like I said in video,.... here I take a different approach to make fireproof material which I dont make it into the paint.

FANTASTIC VERY SIMPLE, TO REPLICATE Thank for sharing your wisdom with us!!!

Good point 👍
Nice experiments!
Omg 🤩 @NightHawkInLight ! Thank you. I am big fan of your work!

I'm going to need some of this before I die.
😂😂😂😂😂
You forgot a control.

will those materials withstand a HHO flame?
Oh, I have no idea 🤷♂️

From the thumbnail I thought you were cooking ramen
how would this stand against a dew attack id think it woulda saved many homes and lives
Hmm, maybe
just make carbonized carbon bricks
what is more better than structurally stable fire resistant element blocks/tiles
carbon ceramic tiles, kinda, very close to making diamond, maybe in higher pressure heaters
carbon is as hard to burn as coal, ie, very hard
all materials behave as ablative, unless they are ceramic, that do not burn at all, like aluminium oxide or aluminium hydroxide fire retardant
ie cast carbon fiber bricks
look up🤣
