CHRYSO® FOAMCRETE-EC

Air entraining admixture

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.
