Development of lightweight mixes using ceramic microspheres as fillers
The present experimental study evaluates the physical and mechanical characteristics of lightweight mixes of uniform consistency having varying proportions of cement and ceramic microspheres. To further modify the physical and mechanical characteristics of the above mixes, supplementary chemical additives that generate stable bubbles in the paste and that endows the lightweight mixes with water-repellent property were introduced into the mix. The results of the study show the mixes made with ceramic microspheres fall in the category of low and moderate density lightweight concrete. The study also shows that, by introducing supplementary chemical additives into the mix, it is possible to generate ceramic microsphere-based lightweight mixes having a wide range of densities, compressive strengths and water-repellent characteristics.
