Abstract

Non-asbestos flexible sheet material suitable for use in gaskets (e.g., automobile exhaust manifold gaskets) operating at high temperature (e.g., 500.degree.-700.degree. C.) is made by impregnating a non-woven tissue of glass or like fiber stable at 700.degree. C. with an aqueous slurry of inorganic filler, particularly a clay, said aqueous slurry including a dispersed elastomeric binder (e.g., an acrylic) and a dispersed or dissolved binder (e.g., colloidal silica) which is essentially inorganic and is effective above 300.degree. C. The impregnated tissue is then dried.
