Obtaining Foam Concrete Applying Stabilized Foam
Objectives: The objective of this study is to obtain better quality foam concrete. In the process of preparing proteinbased foam the technique of stabilizing foam with colloidal sol solutions is used. Methods: The idea of stabilization implies the following: The interaction at the boundaries between the foam layer phase and the colloidal sol phase ...

Thermo‑mechanical properties of various densities of foamed concrete incorporating polypropylene fibres [PDF]
Concrete has been extensively used in the development of urban infrastructure works. However, it has the tendency to absorb solar radiations, and these radiations are released back into the air in the form of heat energy.
