Description
CHRYSO Foamcrete-EC is an efficient low dosage foaming admixture, which is used to produce lightweight cementitious materials (Concrete , Mortar , Cement slurry ) for a variety of insulation and construction applications.
Domains of application
- As flat roof/Floor insulation screeds
- As a backfill concrete.
- Fabrication of light weight beams, blocks and panels
- Fire barrier.
- Sound insulation of walls and ceilings
- As encasement concrete.
Benefits
CHRYSO Foamcrete-EC helps to produce a stable aerated mortar, by entrapping air into prepared cement slurry in the shape of discontinued air bubbles to form a cellular structure throughout the mass. The cellular structure significantly reduces the thermal conductivity and density of concrete, resulting in a lower dead load imposed on the structure. It provides excellent resistance to freeze and thaw The thermal conductivity of foamed concrete is only 5 to 20% that of dense concrete.
