Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
Lightweight dry mix shotcrete was mixed with an expanded perlite aggregate (EPA) and the thermal and mechanical properties of the resulting samples were tested. A number of EPA/sand ratios were used to produce the samples. The TPS instrument was used to measure the thermal conductivity of the samples after 28 days, and values revealed that the thermal conductivity of the samples decreased with the amount of EPA added. The splitting ...
