What is perlite: Perlite is a raw mineral material for new-type thermal insulation and heat insulation materials that is widely used internationally. After High Temperature electric furnace expansion, the expansion process of perlite ore sand is fully controlled by six microcomputers Automatic , which makes the surface of perlite ore sand form a hardened shell, the outer wall is closed, the internal crystalline water gasifies, expands the ore sand into a circular hollow sphere structure, and forms closed-cell perlite products. This product has very high Strength , and its water absorption rate is quite low, only 50%-85% (traditional products are 360%-480%), the closed-cell rate is more than 95%, the ball-forming rate is 90%, the particle size is 0.1-1.5mm, the bulk density is 100-250kg/m2, the thermal conductivity is 0.047-0.054w/m.k, the cylinder compression Strength is 38%-46%, and the refractoriness is 1280-1360℃. It is easy to disperse in cementing materials such as Refractory Material , cement, resin, water glass and gypsum, especially when used in internal and external wall liquid systems, it will make the flow performance of thermal insulation mortar very good.
1. In terms of building wall insulation Energy Saving , closed-cell perlite is a key raw material for manufacturing thermal insulation mortar, and is widely used in thermal insulation of internal and external walls of housing construction. In the building materials industry, closed-cell perlite can be used in thermal insulation, sound insulation, heat insulation, internal and external wall thermal insulation mortar, various lightweight decorative panels, ceiling panels, GRC wall panels, hollow slats, and composite wall materials. At present, closed-cell perlite has been used in high-rise building partitions and intermediate doors in the United States, replacing traditional partitions, and plays a role in fire prevention and thermal insulation.
II. Closed-cell perlite can be used in the Refractory Material industry to produce lightweight Energy Saving Firebrick , and various lightweight Energy Saving Refractory Material , and can replace 50% of floating beads. Closed-cell perlite is a new generation product that replaces floating beads. It can not only improve product quality, but also reduce production costs. Due to the high price of floating beads, the finished closed-cell perlite is less than one-third of the price of floating beads, and its performance is better than that of floating beads. All Refractory Material factories use a large amount of perlite. However, in China's perlite production, the output is only two ten-thousandths of the demand, so the market prospect is broad and the demand is large.
III. In the beverage, beer and pharmaceutical industries, closed-cell perlite can be used as filter ceramics, filter aids, etc.
IV. In the chemical industry and furnace and kiln manufacturing industry, closed-cell perlite can be used for thermal insulation of thermal pipelines, as heat insulation products for furnaces and kilns, and as thermal insulation products.
5. In the military industry, closed-cell perlite can replace expensive glass microspheres in the manufacture of emulsion explosives.
6. In the fire protection industry, closed-cell perlite can be used to make various fire-fighting materials.
