Foaming agent for polymer foam lightweight concrete: a new cornerstone for building the future

Polymer foam lightweight concrete foaming agent is a special additive specially used for the production of foam concrete. Foam concrete is a lightweight building material with low density, good thermal insulation performance, good sound insulation effect and certain fire resistance. The foaming agent for polymer foam lightweight concrete is usually composed of a surfactant or other surfactant, which can be anionic, cationic or non-ionic. In addition, natural sources of substances such as animal protein, plant protein, or industrial by-products such as pulp waste can also be used as the basis for foaming agents.

The action mechanism of polymer foam lightweight concrete foaming agent

Foaming agents can effectively reduce the surface tension of water, making it easier to introduce air during the stirring process and form a large number of stable bubbles. A film with certain stability can also be formed on the surface of the bubbles, which can prevent the bubbles from breaking, thus maintaining the durability of the foam. Foaming agents can optimize the structure of foam to make the bubbles in foam concrete evenly distributed, thus affecting the mechanical and physical properties of concrete.

Main application fields of polymer foam lightweight concrete foaming agent

Construction industry: foam concrete blocks have good thermal insulation performance and can be used as wall-filling materials, which can significantly reduce the weight of the structure. Cast in situ foam concrete can be used as thermal insulation materials for roof, ground and other parts with its good thermal insulation performance, which can effectively reduce energy consumption. At the same time, the lightweight partition board made of foam concrete is not only light in weight but also has a good sound insulation effect, which is suitable for indoor partitions.

Road and bridge engineering: foam concrete can be used to produce impermeable, lightweight and good seismic performance tunnel lining materials, thereby reducing the tunnel deadweight and improving the seismic performance. In road construction, foam concrete is also often used as backfill material, especially when soft soil foundation or load reduction is required; foam concrete can effectively reduce the burden of the foundation. Filling foam concrete behind the abutment can reduce the pressure on the abutment and prevent the foundation from sinking due to the excessive weight of the fill.
