Advantages Of Foam Glass

Jun 05, 2026

1. It is non-toxic, non radioactive, does not release harmful substances, does not pollute the foundation and groundwater, and is an environmentally friendly material;
2. Non combustion, low moisture absorption and water absorption, and use temperature range. The actual use temperature of ordinary foam glass is 240~280 ℃;
3. Not easily weathered, not aging, not susceptible to rodent and insect bites, and not corroded by microorganisms;
4. By changing the formula and foaming process, the bulk density, open and closed porosity, and other properties can be adjusted;
purpose
Foam glass panel is widely used in the fields of petroleum, chemical industry, underground engineering, national defense and military industry due to its advantages of light weight, low thermal conductivity, low water absorption, non combustion, non mildew, high strength, corrosion resistance, non-toxic, and stable physical and chemical properties. It can achieve the effects of heat insulation, heat preservation, cold insulation, and sound absorption. In addition, it is also widely used for the thermal insulation of the external walls and roofs of civil buildings. With the increasing requirements of human beings for environmental protection, foam glass will become a high-level wall insulation material and roof insulation material for urban civil buildings. Foam glass, with its inorganic silicate material and independent closed micro pores, is impermeable, incombustible, anti rodent, anti moth, acid and alkali resistant (except hydrofluoric acid), non-toxic, non radioactive, stable in chemical performance, easy to process and not deformed. Its service life is equivalent to the service life of buildings, and it is a safe, reliable and durable building energy conservation and environmental protection material.
application field
Foam glass is a kind of porous inorganic non-metallic material, which is made of waste flat glass and bottle glass and foamed at high temperature. It is fireproof, waterproof, non-toxic, corrosion resistant, moth resistant, non aging, non radioactive, insulating, antimagnetic wave and anti-static, with high mechanical strength and good adhesion with various slurries. It is a stable material for thermal insulation, sound insulation, and waterproofing of building exterior walls and roofs.
It is reported that foam glass can also be used in thermal insulation works of flue, furnace and cold storage, thermal insulation, waterproof and fire protection works of various gas, liquid and oil transmission pipelines, subway, library, office building, opera house, cinema and other places requiring sound insulation and heat insulation equipment, isolation and sound insulation works of infrastructure construction, leakage prevention and moth prevention works of canals, guardrails, dams and other fields. It even has functions for household cleaning and health care. Compared with traditional protective materials, foam glass can reduce heat loss by about 25%
