Light Concrete Foaming Agent

Description

Light concrete foaming agent is a light yellow light concrete foaming agent for use in all light and cellular concrete and screeds. Foamed (cellular) concrete may have densities from as low 500 kg/m3 to 1600kg/m3 and strength from less than 1 N/mm2 to 25N/mm2. Our foaming agents are of good quality and have been proven by its usage in many countries around the world for various applications such as block production, pre cast panels, in-situ concrete, decorative concrete and void filling,

Foam Concrete is produced by incorporating a uniform structure of fine air bubbles into concrete mix consisting of cement, water and optionally sand. Precise volume management of the air content in the mix is controlled by the amount of added foam, which is produced from a specially designed liquid concentrate using a foam generator. Foam concrete has awide range of applications including pre-cast, geotechnical fill, foundation plates, structural applications and void filling.

Properties:

• Reliable Foam Concrete is inherently a very long- lasting material.
• Excellent insulating material % allow fast construction.
• Highly workable material that can be easily poured into various shapes.
• Provides additional acoustic insulation for floors and roofs.
• Make a very smooth, consistent surface – something that is very difficult with regular concrete.
• Can be a sturdy fire-resistant barrier providing satisfactory protection for hours.

Area of application:

• Compatible with most of the foam generators.
• Roof Slope without unnecessary weight on the building.
• Good thermal and cold insulation for roof and wall.
•  Insulation of pipes in cold conditions.

Important Note:

The quality of the cement is directly determine to the strength of the concrete. So, it should be fresh and fine .The water should meet the standard of drinking water.

Water-Cement ratio is very critical due to its effect on the quality of the foam concrete. It has been noticed that the most advantages water- cement ratio is between 0.4 and 0.45

And one cubic meter of foam concrete requires between 400-450 kg of cement depending on initial densities.
