There are only differences in the temporal solidification or hardening process, which can be modulated by the binders and additives used.Quality assurance in productionIf the operator of a foam filling plant wishes to take advantage of the opportunity to freely choose the constituent materials, he must check their suitability in order to ensure the quality Fig. 2: Process diagram of the patented 2K foam process.Table 2: Characteristics of fresh, solidified and hardened mineral foams. 1Fresh mineral foam Solidified mineral foam Hardened mineral foamHydration Induction period Dormant period Acceleration and deceleration periodCharacteristic Unstable matrix, flowable, reversible structurePlastic structure, irreversible matrix Stable structure, irreversible matrixProcess step Production, conveying, fillingFinishing, transportTransport, storage, construction siteImportant parameters(besides density)Pore structure, rheologyPore structure, handlingPracticality, building physicsBinder 1, water, foaming agent AirMixerMixerPumpPumpShakerShakerMixing pipeMineral foam Binder 2, water, foaming agent Airwith ideal combinationsWiden your view Long spans, slim floors, slender columns, wide open spaces.
