Lightweight thermal insulating coating mortars with aerogel, EPS, and vermiculite for energy conservation in buildings

Patricia Fernanda Bergmann Becker et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the properties of lightweight coating mortars by replacing fine aggregate with insulant alternative aggregates such as silica aerogel, expanded polystyrene, and vermiculite. Silica aerogel significantly reduced thermal conductivity and thickness of the mortar while EPS mortar performed the best in acoustic insulation. Overall, the use of alternative aggregates showed promising results in improving the performance of lightweight coating mortars.

Effect of moisture content on tunnel fire resistance of self-compacting concrete coated with aerogel mortar

Xinjie Wang et al.

Summary: The study showed that coating with fire-resistant material SiO2-ACM can effectively prevent SCC spalling during tunnel fires, improving its mechanical and durability performances while reducing thermal conductivity. The degree of SCC spalling increased with moisture content during tunnel fires, but SCC coated with SiO2-ACM exhibited significantly less spalling compared to uncoated samples.

Influence of the aerogel/expanded perlite composite as thermal insulation aggregate on the cement-based materials: Preparation, property, and microstructure

Guanhua Jia et al.

Summary: The Aerogel/expanded perlite composite (AEP) offers a cost-effective solution for incorporating aerogel into building materials. The AEP cement-based composites (AEPC) were prepared and studied for their workability, physical and mechanical properties, and microstructure. The addition of AEP improved the fresh mixture workability of AEPC, although certain modifications such as KH550 and HPMC had inhibitory effects on the hydration process of cement-based materials. AEPC exhibited decreased thermal conductivity compared to expanded perlite cement-based composites due to the stable presence of aerogel.
