THE EFFECT OF ADDITIVES THAT ACCELERATE SOLIDIFICATION ON THE MAIN PROPERTIES OF FOAM CONCRETE: CHANGES IN PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES

Аннотация

At a time when the demand for heat-insulating materials is increasing every year, the production of composite materials with high efficiency based on local and industrial waste can be one of the solutions to this problem. One type of these materials is foam concrete. Use of energy-efficient construction materials, production of wall coverings and heat-insulating products from them. The article considers the issues of improving the main properties of foam concrete under the influence of additives that accelerate the hardening process of foam concrete produced based on local raw materials. The correlation of porosity with mechanical strength was studied. It has been shown that the strength varies significantly when different materials are compressed in a solid fractional volume.
