Cementing Material

Polystyrene granules (EPS) for lightweight aggregate and cement for cementing material, while adding a variety of additives, were used to prepare cement-based composite thermal insulation materials by the method of vibration molding. The effects of different waterproof agent on water absorption and strength of cement-based composite thermal insulation materials were studied contrastively by adding emulsified stearic acid and emulsified composite waterproofing agent, and the related mechanisms were analyzed. Results showed that the waterproofing effect and strengthen effect of emulsified composite waterproofing agent is superior to emulsified stearic acid, when the content of emulsified stearic acid and emulsified composite waterproofing agent are 5% and 5%, respectively, the 2h, 24h water absorption of samples are 20.59%, 47.64% and 15.53%, 34.53%, the flexural and compressive strength of samples are 0.32MPa, 0.42MPa and 0.35MPa, 0.47MPa.

The known cooling methods for the high-temperature operating environment of a mine mainly include ventilation, refrigeration, heat insulation, and individual protection. Among them, the superior performance and wide application of the heat insulation materials have attracted the attention of the coal mining industry. In this paper, three types of mineral insulation materials were prepared using basalt fiber, glass fiber, vitrified microbeads in combination with cement, sand, high-strength ceramsite, water, etc. In addition, the thermal conductivity and compressive strength of the prepared specimens were assessed. The results show that the test specimen containing basalt fiber had a great thermal insulation effect and achieved the required compressive strength. Furthermore, according to the COMSOL simulation results, the test specimen containing basalt fiber had a better thermal insulation effect than the ordinary concrete materials. Therefore, the research results of this article have guiding significance to search for new mine thermal insulation materials.

Abstract Shrinkage of foam concrete can easily cause cracking and thus makes it difficult for a manufacturer to maintain quality. The density of lightweight aggregate concrete is too high to meet specifications for lightweight and thermal insulation for wallboard. Two types of concrete with dry density in the range 1000–1200 kg/m3 for use in wallboard were designed and prepared using foam and lightweight aggregate. The properties of porous lightweight aggregate concrete with core-shell non-sintered lightweight aggregate were compared with sintered lightweight aggregate concrete along with several dimensions. The two aggregates were similar in particle size, density, and strength. The effects of each aggregate on the workability, compressive strength, dry shrinkage, and thermal conductivity of the lightweight concrete were analyzed and compared. Pore structures were determined by mercury intrusion porosimetry and X-ray computed tomography. Compressive strength ranged from 7.8 to 11.8 MPa, and thermal conductivity coefficients ranged from 0.193 to 0.219 W/m/K for both types of concrete. The results showed that the core-shell non-sintered lightweight aggregate bonded better with the paste matrix at the interface transition zone and had a better pore structure than the sintered lightweight aggregate concrete. Slump flow of the core-shell non-sintered lightweight aggregate concrete was about 20% greater than that of the sintered lightweight aggregate concrete, 28d compressive strength was about 10% greater, drying shrinkage was about 10% less, and thermal conductivity was less. Porous lightweight aggregate concrete using core-shell non-sintered lightweight aggregate performs well when used in wallboard because of its low density, high thermal insulation, and improved strength.

n this research we tried to improve the thermal insulation efficiency of polystyrene foam by adding some natural materials. The gebrile soil was selected for several reasons, including abundance and ease of processing before the addition - There are many previous researches for soil treatment -. We have found at ratio 20%(The proportion of the soil in the compound) the coefficient of conduction is low and then rises after this percentage As for the absorption of water it increases by increasing the soil, but at this ratio the absorption is within the permissible limit according to the specifications required for the insulation materials and also compressive strength increase with the increasing of the soil ratio because of increasing of mechanical links between the polycarbonate and polystyrene particles and composite-material’s density increasing in general.

Insulation Materials

In this paper, a compressive peak strength model for CFRP-confined thermal insulation materials under elevated temperature was proposed. The thermal insulation material was made by Portland cement with different portions of perlite. The compressive strengths of four different perlite ratios in weight, such as 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30% of thermal insulation materials, confined by one-layer, two-layer, and three-layer carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite materials, were obtained. The test results indicated that the specimen’s compressive strength decreased with an increase in the amount of perlite replacement and increased with an increase in the number of CFRP wrapping layers. Based on the test results, a theoretical compressive peak strength model with some parameters was proposed. In the meantime, the compressive strengths of the above four different perlite ratios of thermal insulation materials under elevated temperature, such as ambient temperature, 100 °C, 150 °C, 200 °C, 250 °C, and 300 °C, were obtained. For compression tests of specimens with a fixed amount of perlite, the test results indicated that the specimen’s compressive strength decreased with an increase in temperature, highlighting a thermal softening phenomenon. Based on the test results, a compressive peak strength model with a thermal softening parameter was proposed to predict the peak strength under elevated temperature. Finally, a compressive peak strength model for thermal insulation material with CFRP confinement under different elevated temperature was derived, and it achieved acceptable results in comparison to the experimental results.

Materials Used

Today, the style of light construction materials used in building is one of the most important factors in reducing building's dead load and better performance of the structures in the earthquake. One of the ways to reduce the structure weight is to use lightweight blocks instead of using traditional materials. The main purpose of this research is to compare density, compressive strength and water absorption volume of non-load-bearing lightweight blocks made of natural and artificial lightweight aggregates. Scoria lightweight aggregates of Sanandaj, Ghorveh mine, pumice in Tabriz, Bostanabad mine, and Leca in Leca enterprise have been used to make the samples. Given the importance of the materials used, grading of coarse-grained materials has been conducted based on the standard of 7657 and grading of fine materials have been conducted based on the standard of 302.The experiments' results show that Scoria blocks due to hard texture, and high mechanical resistance of their lightweight aggregates, have had higher compressive strength, and density and lower water absorption volume compared to pumice and Lika lightweight aggregate blocks. Pumice blocks despite having desirable compressive strength and lower density compared to the two other blocks have higher water absorption volume, and do not meet the standard conditions. This same factor causes it faces with less interest. Among these Lika blocks with density of 1151.94 (kg per cubic meter) below 2000 kilograms per cubic meter of Iran density standard of 7782 (28-day compressive strength of 2.57 MPa), higher than 2.5 MPa of Iran compressive strength standard of 7782 (and water absorption volume of 282.92 kg per cubic meter) below 288 kilograms per cubic meter of Iran water absorption volume standard of 7782 (as a non-load-bearing lightweight block) have been diagnosed desirable.
