Submicrocrystalline foam concrete: what is new in technology fundamentals. Part I

The article describes a new production technology of non-autoclave foam concrete and products from it involving the use of cement of low water requirement with a new water repellant and a new frothing agent. The article considers the equipment required for the process. The works performed and the physico-chemical studies completed have determined the role of submicrocrystalline new formations, which gave the name to the product obtained – submicrocrystalline foam concrete (SMC foam concrete).
