Abstract

The article proposes a method for the autoclave–free production of ultra–lightweight cellular concrete based on Portland cement, glass waste, and liquid glass. A hardening activator and a gas–forming agent are used to produce a porous material with high thermal insulation properties and water resistance. The proposed concrete can be used as thermal and sound insulation material, as well as for masonry and construction of non–bearing internal walls.

Keywords

ellular concrete, waste glass, liquid glass, alkaline activation, porous structure, water resistance
