#Highstrength #lightweightaggregate High-strength lightweight aggregate has the superior properties of high strength and low thermal conductivity. Traditional heavy materials have high strength, but have almost no thermal insulation effect; traditional lightweight materials have good thermal insulation effects, but have low strength; the emergence of our high-strength lightweight aggregates makes it possible to produce products with both high strength and low thermal conductivity. The product has high refractory resistance and can make lightweight products at higher temperatures. The iron content is low and can be used in CO reducing atmosphere environments. It can produce products with a body density of 0.8~2.0g/cm3, a thermal conductivity of less than 0.3~0.5w/(m��k), and a strength of 40~60MPa or more. It can be used in high-temperature industries that require both high strength and low thermal conductivity. Furnace linings with high performance, such as heating furnace linings, rotary kiln insulation layers, permanent linings for ladles and tundishes, covers for ladles and tundishes, etc.

Mapei extends Zero Line with new coatings. https://buff.ly/4aMgL9k Two new paint systems have joined #Mapei UK’s Zero line of #carbon offset* products. They include Silancolor Pittura Zero – a water-repellent, breathable silicate-based protective #paint system and Elastocolor Pittura Zero – a #crack bridging anti-carbonation #elastomeric paint. The new #coatings join Mapei’s wide range of Zero #construction products which provide durable, high-performance solutions with #CO2 fully offset in the entire life cycle. Both Silancolor Pittura Zero and Elastocolor Pittura Zero are designed for application on indoor and outdoor surfaces. Silancolor Pittura Zero paint is generally used on #facades exposed to the elements and on #outdoor #walls where both breathability and high water-repellence are required. The coating is suitable for lime-based, #cement and de-humidifying #render and is ideal for #renovation #projects. Elastocolor Pittura Zero paint is designed to protect deformed #concrete #structures, cracked facades and micro-cracked render, including surfaces exposed to damaging mould, algae and fungi. Both coatings are ideal for application onto north-facing facades, where they provide long-lasting protection against organic growth. *The Zero line portfolio demonstrates Mapei’s commitment to the planet, to people and to #biodiversity. CO2 #emissions - measured throughout the life cycle of products from the Zero line in 2024 using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology, verified and certified with #EPD certificates - have been offset through #reforestation projects and protection of biodiversity. Offsetting residual CO2 emissions of products is the final step in a process involving the Corporate #Environmental #Sustainability team and the Mapei #Research laboratories. #SustainableConstruction #ConcreteRepair #rendering #interiors #building #builder #trade #construction #masonry #MasonryRestoration #restoration #refurbishment #PropertyMaintenance #Propertydeveloper #decorative #design

In many countries, for example in Western Europe, polymer-modified reinforced render is one state-of-the-art solution to prevent crack-formation in facades. What’s the secret of this technique?   It’s simple, yet effective: the masonry is decoupled from the render/plaster by means of a fiber mesh embedded in a polymer-based base coat. This prevents tension originating in the substrate from being transferred to the topcoat, and cracks can be avoided. Watch the short video below 👇 to see how it works.   👉 Do you want to learn more about the different types of render? Then take a look at our new website article: https://bit.ly/3UavAfr #TeamWallSystem #plaster #construction #vinnapas

The Excellent Electrical Resistivity of Fused Cast AZS Refractories Have you ever concerned electrical resistivity performance of fused cast AZS refractories in the process of refractory selection or on-site inspection? Normally you probably focus on the analysis of following items only: 1.Chemical Composition(ZrO2/Al2O3/K2O+Na2O) 2.Physical Properties(Apparent Porosity/Exudation Temperature of Glass Phase/Blistering Ratio/Anti-Corrosion Rate of Glass Liquid 3.Radar Test of all glass contact blocks 4.Crystallographic Analysis(Zirconia Phase/Corundum Phase/Glass Phase/Mullite Phase) 5.Surface standard acceptance(Cavity,Joint Gap,Cracks,Spalls,Adhesives or fusions,dimension-check and other defects). However, it is desirable in the production of high quality glasses that the refractories utilized in the glass melting furnace have excellent electrical resistivity, esp for sidewall blocks of solar glass and fiberglass etc production lines. Also more and more container or tableware glass manufacturers intend to use a numerous of electrodes in the melting tank,which are usually installed as side or bottom electrodes depending on specific requirement. And it is said that Chinese glass producers are skilled at the handling of bottom electrodes while overseas manufacturers are good at the operation of side electrodes. The melting tank with side electrodes also ask high electrical resistivity AZS refractory. U see, supposing the electrical resistivity performance of AZS blocks is much more poor, even worse than molten glass, then what will happen by continuous usage of electric power? The powerful electric current will be passed through AZS blocks prior to molten glass,then AZS blocks will be easily molten and wear away after decades of months running.Also it will generate poor glass quality(Stone Issue) and low energy efficiency. This is my personal opinion for reference.Welcome to communicate with us if you have other comment. We are eager to leverage our expertise and experience in refractories to troubleshoot furnace issue , minimize downtime, optimize glass quality,improve energy efficiency and extend campaign life.

NEW CERTIFICATIONS 📣 We are proud to announce our new certifications: exceptional performance in crack bridging and anti-root properties for the V-COAT P5000 polyurea system. Crack bridging certification refers to the ability to bridge a crack in the substrate. Specifically, it’s the capacity of a material, such as a liquid waterproofing membrane, to withstand the dimension of a crack in the substrate without breaking. Anti-root certificate refers to a specialized property that prevents plant roots from penetrating and damaging the waterproofing membrane. These membranes are commonly used in applications like roof gardens, planter boxes, foundations, retaining walls, and Green roof projects. #Viopol is committed to delivering the best products, services, and support to help achieve long-lasting results for our customers.
