The main difference between these two materials'is that the 7308 is a better
insulator than 7309-1, but does not have as .high a temperature limit (1200 vs 1600).
Since we have present application for 7309-1 (gas turbine combustors operate at over 1200) and eventually steam-turbines will go over 1200; we can't depend on using 7308 exclusively. Also, since we use two layer Insulation for anything over 600, we use the 7309-1 to take the Initial heat shock and the 7308 (because It's a better insulator) on the outer layer.
I am also attaching the latest standard book pages on insulation, which you might find useful.
