Foamed concrete, foamed cement with low densities without the use of polystyrene
In the context of the exclusive cooperation between Heidelberger Beton Group and Dr. Lucà & Partner in the sector of ready-mix concrete, the cooperation partner now merchandise the new product Poriment® PRO as a liquid insulation. Poriment® PRO is based on the technology of LithoPore by Dr. Lucà & Partner. With the worldwide unique Poriment® PRO technology foamed construction materials with a density range of only 200-400 kg / m³ under industrial scale can be manifactured. The use of polystyrene is no longer necessary.
Poriment® PRO as a future successor to the products Poriment® and Poriment® P is mixed at the factory and delivered in truck mixers to the construction site to be pumped there compared to flowing screed or concrete. The wet density does not change its properties during transportation.
Other benefits of Poriment® PRO:
-
No crack formation/initiation and rapid hardening
-
Walk-on stability:
200 kg / m³: within 24-48 hours
300 kg / m³: within 18-24 hours
400 kg / m³: within 12-16 hours
-
At the factory: Easy cleaning of truck mixers (Only inorganic waste occures)
-
For future renovation / demolition: There is only the usual cementitious building rubble
-
Fire rating of Poriment® PRO: A1 (Poriment® PRO) instead of B1(Poriment® P)
| Density class | 200 kg/m³ | 300 kg/m³ | 400 kg/m³ |
| Compressive strength (MPa) | 0.25-0.4 | 0.8-1.0 | 1.3-1.7 |
| Thermal conductivity (W/m*K) | 0.06-0.07 | 0.075-0.085 | 0.095-0.105 |
Conclusion:
Poriment® PRO: Easy to produce, cheaper and inorganic without the use of polystyrene!
