Preparative Techniques and Its Performance of Chemically Foamed Cement Paste

摘要

The foamed cement paste (FCP) is a kind of inorganic insulation material. It is characterized by its light weight, heat-insulating and fire-proofing properties, and the thermal conductivity is close to that of expanded polystyrene (EPS). The foamed cement paste is achieved by means of chemical reaction. The mixture proportion, the preparation process, mechanical and thermal properties are investigated in this paper. The results show that properly mixed paste foams stably, and the bulk density could be controlled. The hardened FCP could be used as insulating filler material in composite walls, as well as blocks for Thermal insulation walls.
