Water-Glass-Assisted Foaming in Foamed Glass Production
Ceramics, 2023 The energy efficiency of buildings can be greatly improved by decreasing the energy embodied in installed materials. In this contribution, we investigated the possibility of foaming waste bottle glass in the air atmosphere with the addition of water glass, which would reduce the energy used in the production of foamed glass boards.

The Mechanism of Glass Foaming with Water Glass
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2022 Water glass is a common additive in the process of direct foaming of glass, however, the currently accepted foaming mechanism lacks experimental validation. A foaming mixture of waste cathode ray tube panel glass and water glass was investigated for its expansion and gas evolution behavior via hot stage microscopy and thermogravimetry coupled with mass

Alternative foaming agents for fabrication of glass foam
Multidiszciplináris tudományok, 2021 Glass foam tablets were produced from container glass bottles (CGB) using eggshell waste (ESW) and perlite (P) as foaming agent in different portions. The ground raw materials (CGB, ESW, P) were homogenized and pressed with hydraulic piston press machine at different pressures (in the case of P containing tablets 30 MPa and ESW containing tablets 15 ...
