Rossi would nave used alumina that is transparent to infrared in his reactor design because he wants the heat from his primary heater that is imbedded in the alumina to get to the nickel powder. An infrared insulator is not a good reactor design.
The report doesn't say if the resistors are embedded in the alumina, or contained inside it :
