Global Foam Glass Market, 2014-2024
Foam glass is a kind of insulating material having 80% - 90% porosity. The foam glass has the properties of low thermal conductivity, high compression strength, high frost resistance, and better durability. It is made from raw material such as, foaming agent, limestone, calcium carbide, or coke by grinding, blending, and fitting die roasted at high temperature. The principle of the foam glass process is that between 700°C and 900°C the glass powder forms into a viscous liquid and then the foaming agent decomposes to form a gas that in turn forms bubbles. After cooling the mixture hardens into a rigid material with gas-filled closed-cell pores comprising a large portion of its volume.
The foam glass can be categories into closed cell foam glass and open cell foam glass. Closed cell foam glass offers high-temperature resistance, fire resistance, and high load bearing strength, moisture resistance, corrosion resistance, and pest resistance properties. These kinds of glass are used for building application as inner wall insulation, floor insulation, bases of tanks, insulating pipes, backfills, embankments, and runway arrestor systems.
This material is used to build walls, regulate heat in refrigerating equipment, or used as floating and filtering material. It is an advanced heat insulating material, easy to be cut and cemented. Foam glass is fireproof, waterproof, non-toxic, corrosion-resistant, anti-mite, non-aging, non-radioactive, and insulating. Anti-magnetic wave, anti-static, high mechanical strength, with good adhesion to various types of mud.
