Bushfire-Resistant Lightweight Masonry Blocks with Expanded Perlite Aggregate
During bushfires, one of the building elements that is directly exposed to embers, radiant heat and direct flames is the “wall” element. This study investigated the feasibility of using expanded perlite aggregate in masonry (i.e., cement) blocks to ...

Colloidal and viscoelastic properties of expanded perlite dispersions
In this study, structural properties of unexpanded perlite and expanded perlite particles were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis techniques. Electrokinetic properties of unexpanded perlite and expanded perlite particles in polar (water) and non-polar (silicone oil ...

Analisis pasar expanded perlite Indonesia
The availability of perlite is always associated with volcanic activities, so perlite has a huge potential in Indonesia. The use of perlite abroad has developed for various applications, but is still limited in Indonesia. One of the perlite development efforts in Indonesia is an analysis to seek market of the expanded perlite.

Confining caesium in expanded natural Perlite [PDF]
We present the potential use of expanded perlite, a metastable amorphous hydrated aluminum silicate, as a permanent medium for the long-term confinement of caesium. A simple loading by mixing an aqueous caesium nitrate solution and expanded perlite at 300K followed by thermal annealing leads to 96% sintering.

The Use of Expanded Perlite for Pb(II) removal from Industrial Leachate: Kinetic Studies
In this study, the removal efficiency of Pb(II) from industrial leachate was investigated by using expanded perlite by adsorption. The effects of pH, contact time, and adsorbent dosage were examined on the Pb(II) removal.
