Advantages of synthetic foaming agent for cement concrete foaming agent

Synthetic blowing agent overview

Cement foaming agent, also known as foaming concrete foaming agent, cement foaming agent is an admixture that can reduce the surface tension of the liquid and produce a large amount of uniform and stable foam for the production of foamed concrete. Foaming agent is a type of substance that can produce a large amount of foam when its aqueous solution is introduced into air by mechanical force. This type of substance is a surfactant or surface-active substance. The essence of foaming agent is its surface activity. Without surface activity, it cannot be foamed and cannot become a foaming agent. Surface activity is the core of foaming.

Synthetic foaming agent for concrete is a high-concentration, high-efficiency liquid used in the production of lightweight foam concrete, which is also called cellular lightweight concrete (CLC).

CLC concrete has very good potential in helping to build cellular lightweight applications. Using the correct type of foaming agent can make a huge difference in product properties (such as the mechanical properties of concrete and its resistance, etc.). Synthetic foaming agents are chemical substances that reduce the surface tension of liquids and are widely used in the manufacture of blocks, bricks, CLC concrete, etc. worldwide. Compared with other foaming agents, when high density is required, less energy is required for formation. Highly recommended for the construction industry, the demand for lightweight concrete has increased over time.

Advantages of synthetic foaming agent for cement concrete foaming agent

1. Low cost/high concentration

The use rate of synthetic foaming agents for concrete is low, and this must be considered when choosing a foaming agent, not just the basic price per liter.

2. Fine foam and good stability

It can be used in a wide range of temperature and water quality. This stability means that the foam bubbles can support themselves and support the surrounding mortar. Bubbles are not easy to burst, so foam concrete will not collapse when it is made or after it has been placed.

3. Low bleeding.

4. Excellent strength and heat insulation performance.

This means that the foamed concrete produced by Tongrun foaming agent is suitable for a wide range of applications.

5. The foaming agent is essentially harmless and easy to wash off.

Instructions for use of synthetic foaming agent for cement concrete

The water and foaming agent are separately fed into the foam generator and mixed in the correct ratio. The mixture of water and blowing agent is called a pre-foaming solution. The pre-foaming solution and compressed air pass through a stalk;

Foaming agent can be used with all types of cement, only mixed with cement or sand cement mortar, can produce various types and various purposes of foamed concrete. Its cost accounts for a small proportion of the total cost of foam concrete, usually only about 1-3%.

Synthetic blowing agent application

What are the uses of synthetic foaming agents in concrete?

1. Foaming agent is used to make lightweight (clc) blocks and panels;

2. The foaming agent is used to fill in the blanks;

Foamed concrete is also very useful for void filling. Because it is very mobile, it can dump even in the most inaccessible places. It can be used for planned work, and it can also provide stability and support very quickly in an emergency;

3. Foaming agent is used for roof insulation;

4. Foaming agent is used to mark CLC blocks, cast-in-place walls, bridge reinforcement wall construction, floor slab construction, lightweight prefabricated blocks, fire protection, sound insulation, etc.
