Lightweight Reactive Powder Concrete Containing Expanded Perlite. [PDF]
Materials (Basel), 2021 This paper presents the test results of the lightweight concrete properties obtained by adding expanded perlite (EP) to an RPC mix in quantities from 30% to 60% by volume of the concrete mix. It has been shown that in these cases it is possible to obtain concrete containing 30% by volume with density of approximately 1900 kg/m3 and the compressive ...
