Lightweight Reactive Powder Concrete Containing Expanded Perlite [PDF]
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 ...

Hydrophobic coating of expanded perlite particles by plasma polymerization
Abstract In this study, an RF plasma discharge was employed to deposit thin poly(hexafluorobutyl acrylate) (PHFBA) polymeric films on expanded perlite. A rotating plasma reactor was used to provide effective agitation and mixing of the particles during the depositions.

ELECTRORHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF BIODEGRADABLE CHITOSAN/EXPANDED PERLITE COMPOSITES
In this study, chitosan (CS)/expanded perlite (EP) composites with different chitosan fractions (10%, 20% and 50%) were prepared by absorbing chitosan into porous networks of expanded perlite, as a new hybrid smart electrorheological (ER) material ...

Influence of zeolitized perlite on blended cement properties [PDF]
Perlite is the mineral of volcanic origin. Expanded perlite has good heat insulation and sound absorption properties. It is light, resistant to fire, moisture and micro-organisms, harmless to health. However, due to the presence of hyaline phase,
