The invention relates to a temperature-resistant ceramic hybrid material having a matrix made of calcium silicate hydrate, in which matrix carbon is embedded, wherein the carbon is predominantly composed of graphite particles (GP) having an ordered graphitic lattice structure and makes up a weight fraction of up to 40%. The matrix is composed of tobermorite and/or xonotlite (X) and can contain wollastonite rods and/or granular silicate (SK). The size of the graphite particles (GP) is 0.01 - 3 mm. The hybrid material is especially suitable for casting devices for non-ferrous metals. |
