Foam concrete blocks have the following characteristics:
Lightweight thermal insulation: The density range of foam concrete block measures between 300~1200kg/m ³ and provides a light weight equivalent to 4 to 5 times that of normal concrete. The material offers superior thermal shielding capacity which helps buildings minimize their power usage dramatically.
Good seismic performance: The seismic performance of building structures becomes better thanks to numerous bubbles contained within foam concrete blocks which act to receive and distribute seismic impact forces.
Environmental protection and energy conservation: The manufacturing of foam concrete blocks avoids material exploitation because they produce no hazardous substances while reducing overall energy requirements.
Excellent thermal performance: The thermal conductivity rate of foam concrete blocks measures between 0.08~0.25W/(m • K) which creates excellent thermal performance.
High water absorption: The high water absorption capability of foam concrete blocks affects their promotion and use effect because the manufacturing process creates many production bubbles.
Good sound absorption and sound insulation performance: Porous foam concrete blocks offer both good acoustic absorption and sound insulation function to reduce environmental noise.
Good workability: The workability of foam concrete blocks stands out because they maintain high strength and allow sawing and planning with gluing and nailing abilities which help processing and decoration. The building industry finds foam concrete blocks suitable for different uses due to their range of dimensions and specifications.
Construction of foam concrete blocks remains simple because these products exhibit strong dispersivity and safe fluidity without climate dependence.
