The foaming agent is an indispensable component in the preparation of foam concrete by using prefabricated foams. This study used four types of foaming agents to prepare foam concrete. Effect of the foaming agent on the properties of fresh and hardened foam concrete, the interaction between the foaming agent and cement, and the gas–liquid interface in foam concrete were studied. It is observed that the interaction between foaming agents and cement played a more significant role in the formation

A disparity in the water release from the foam concrete samples was noticed for two types of foaming agents. The rapid outflow of water from the models was observed in the foam concrete with the protein foaming agent for the curing conditions applied in the tests. The water loss was reduced in the foam concrete with a synthetic foaming agent, and its rate was slower. It gives a preliminary diagnosis of potential shrinkage problems and the necessity of the special curing conditions ensuring a gen
The thermal conductivity results are presented in the same manner as in the previous section. Consequently, the measured values of the thermal conductivity tests were collected depending on the various components used in the examined foam concrete. Generally, as previously described (Section 2), the enhanced thermal properties of conventional concrete were proven. Generally, the measured thermal conductivity values range from 0.048 Wm−1K −1 to 0.079 Wm−1K −1 for air-dry densities below 500 kg/m3

This study aims to investigate the ultra-lightweight foam concrete of rarely studied density ranges (200–500 kg/m3), looking for the most favorable configuration of properties of such feasible insulating material: compressive strength and thermal conductivity. The conducted tests examined the influence of the density, synthetic, and protein foaming agents and binder type on the properties mentioned above. The wide range of the tested densities below 500 kg/m3 allowed for identifying properties a
The effect of the chosen factors, such as the water-to-cement ratio of FC with a density of 400–800 kg/m3, the water content of FC with a density of 300–800 kg/m3, different filler types of FC with a density of 1200–1600 kg/m3, fiber content, curing conditions and dry density of FC with the density of 400–800 kg/m3 on mechanical properties is the subject of the studies as mentioned earlier. The compressive strength tests of the materials with the lower densities are rarely performed; nevertheles
The study focuses on ultra-light foam concrete (FC) as a thermal insulation material. Two important properties of such material were investigated: compressive strength and thermal conductivity. In the conducted tests, the influence of the air-dry density (200–500 kg/m3 ), type of foaming agent (synthetic and protein), and binder type (ordinary Portland cement—OPC; calcium sulphoaluminate cement—CSA; metakaolin; siliceous fly ash—SFA; calcareous fly ash—CFA) on the mentioned properties were exami
What is Concrete Foaming Agent?"Foamed concrete" is made by adding a foaming agent into a mixed mortar in a truck mixer. Foamed concrete is a nonstructural void filler that excavators can dig out. It is used for trench backfill and similar applications. The air content is over 50%, compared with about 5% in air-entrained concrete. Foamed concrete typically consists of a slurry of cement or fly ash, sand, and water. However, some suppliers recommend pure cement and water with the foaming agent fo
The concrete foaming agent is an essential material used in the construction industry to produce lightweight and durable concrete. A concrete foaming agent manufacturer plays a crucial role in producing high-quality foaming agents that can be used for various applications. These manufacturers are responsible for creating a product that is effective and safe for use. They use advanced technology and ingredients to create a foaming agent that is stable, reliable, and cost-effective. The right conc
An important factor in concrete foam technology is temperature. First, this is the temperature of the outside air and the foam concrete mix when laying. When the temperature drops below +15° C, the time of setting of cement, the set of plastic, and final strength increase. The heat can be added to the hydro mixture directly when it is prepared with hot mixing water or by heating it in a mixer using electricity, steam, or other. With separate technology, part of the heat can be added with foam. D
Market ExpectationBuilding curtain wall technology embodies both engineering and artistic elements in its product form. Fluorocarbon-coated aluminum veneers have become an indispensable part of high-rise building curtain walls and interior decoration due to their excellent resistance against fading, corrosion, UV radiation cracking and weathering. However, fluorocarbon-coated aluminum veneers have several inadvertent drawbacks that cannot be avoided, including large pollution levels, increased e
