Protein foaming agent for foam concrete Rospena

Let's start with the fact that adhesive foam for aerated concrete masonry is very different from ordinary polyurethane foam, and ordinary foam should absolutely not be used for masonry.

Adhesive foam for aerated concrete masonry is gaining popularity due to its advantages, which we wrote about below in the text. If previously foam was used only for laying partitions, now they have developed a special adhesive foam for the construction of load-bearing external walls.

Such foams include Polish Tytan and LimFix. It was thoroughly tested in laboratory conditions and was able to show the required properties for laying load-bearing walls.

Laboratory research is good, but so far this technology has not stood the test of time in our climate, so developers use foam at their own peril and risk. But we note that many professionals have already begun to use foam for application to vertical and horizontal masonry joints.

There is also a combined option, where horizontal joints are made with cement glue, and vertical joints with foam.

Advantages of using foam for aerated concrete masonry:

1. Significantly speeds up laying.
2. No cold bridges.
3. There is no need for tools.
4. Masonry can be carried out without water or electricity.
5. Very clean and beautiful seams.

Adhesive foam for partitions

The main advantage of using foam for laying aerated concrete partitions. Horizontal seams on the foam have some elasticity, which greatly reduces the likelihood of cracks in the partitions.

There is an opinion that there is no point in reinforcing aerated concrete partitions laid on foam, since polyurethane foam acts as a damper that partially compensates for temperature and shrinkage stresses in aerated concrete.

Recommendations for using foam

If you plan to apply several layers of foam on top of each other, spray each layer with water. Do not remove the can from the gun until the composition is completely used up. When the container is empty, it is carefully disconnected from the gun and immediately replaced with a new one so that the foam inside the tool does not harden. After all work is completed, the gun is cleaned with a special liquid, Makroflex Premium Cleaner, or regular acetone. If the foam has hardened, it can only be cleaned mechanically.

The use of foam requires compliance with safety measures:

• when working, it is important to ensure excellent ventilation and use a respirator;
• the cylinder is under pressure, and its spraying near an open fire is unacceptable;
• If foam gets on your skin or eyes, they should be rinsed immediately with water.

Macroflex foam is a high-quality composition of a new generation that greatly facilitates the work of the master. In some cases, it will eliminate the need to use cement and other construction mixtures, saving time and money.

Application of foam adhesive for masonry

1. You need to lay out the first row on the solution.
2. Foam storage temperature is from +5 to +25 degrees.
3. Before use, the foam must remain at room temperature for at least 10 hours.
4. Before applying foam, the container must be shaken well.
5. The blocks must be leveled with a grater and cleaned of dust.
6. It is also recommended to moisten the surface of the blocks.
7. The consumption of foam adhesive depends on the width of the gas blocks.
8. For blocks up to 150 mm wide, one strip is applied.
9. For blocks from 150 to 300 mm - two stripes.
10. For blocks over 300 mm - three stripes.
11. The width of the foam strip should be 20-30 mm.
12. The distance between the foam strip and the edges of the blocks is 50 mm.
13. When adjusting blocks by level, you have three minutes.
14. You cannot tear off the blocks, otherwise you will have to reapply the foam.
15. The time for complete hardening of the foam is 24 hours.
16. To reinforce the rows, you need to use cement adhesive on aerated concrete.

Reviews of glue "Azolit"

No less effective for winter construction is the “Azolit” composition, which has moisture-repellent characteristics and is intended for laying not only aerated concrete, but also silicate, as well as foam concrete products. Consumers claim that the average consumption per 1 cubic meter is 25 kilograms, the mobility of the glue is maintained for a maximum of 7 minutes, and the bending strength is 4.1 MPa. Complete drying should be expected 2 hours after mixing, and the moisture content by weight is 0.08%. Quite often, specialists are interested in such a parameter as compressive strength; in the case of the “Azolit” composition, it is equivalent to 11.2 kgf/m². Moisture absorption by mass is 2 percent, but adhesion to a concrete base is 0.4 MPa.

Features of using aerated concrete in construction

Aerated concrete blocks, otherwise called foam blocks or gas blocks, are a material from the group of cellular concretes. It is widely used in the construction of low-rise buildings and interior partitions. The use of foam concrete saves the budget, time and effort of builders. The laying of aerated blocks, as well as the subsequent finishing of walls from it, can be done on their own not only by a professional builder, but by an amateur.

Laying foam concrete in the traditional way involves the use of special mixtures. The method of using cement mortars is time-tested, its technology is proven and accessible. But due to higher thermal conductivity than aerated concrete, cement-sand masonry joints increase the heat loss of the premises being built.

Buildings made of aerated concrete are characterized by long service life. Inside rooms made of this material, heat is well retained due to the low thermal conductivity of the material.

Calculation of quantity when laying aerated concrete on foam

The amount of glue required for construction work is indicated on the packaging. But, knowing certain indicators, you can independently calculate the approximate consumption. To do this, you need to operate with the following data:

• length, height and width of the material being laid;
• area to be built excluding door and window openings;
• quantity of purchased building materials.

And, of course, it is worth taking into account the unexpected consumption of adhesive mass.

Advantages and disadvantages of adhesive foam for aerated concrete blocks

As the experience of many specialists shows, the use of polyurethane foam glue has many advantages compared to dry mixtures, such as:

• the glue has high adhesion rates with many building materials;
• creates a fairly stable bond between materials that can withstand fairly high mechanical loads;
• can be used at low temperatures, since it does not contain water;
• You can use the adhesive foam immediately, without wasting extra time and without making additional efforts to knead;
• distribution of glue, as well as hardening, takes much less time;
• storage and transportation of adhesive foam does not require special conditions and effort;
• the product is economical in consumption;
• the resulting seams are quite thin, which has a positive effect on the thermal conductivity of the constructed walls;
• durability of foam for gas blocks and foam concrete.

Along with a large number of advantages of foam-based polyurethane adhesive, it also has a number of disadvantages, namely:

• ineffective use with materials that have a smooth surface;
• the quality of aerated concrete gas silicate materials must be the highest, since the correctness of their geometric shapes is very important;
• for load-bearing walls it can only be used in low-rise construction;
• quite high cost;
• Adhesive foam is resistant to direct ultraviolet rays.

Another stopping factor in using foam for aerated concrete is the lack of information about the durability of such masonry. This is explained by the short-term presence of this glue on the building materials market.

Types of fasteners

The dowel is a hollow collet and screw. The scurvy consists of a non-separable part and 4 fixing segments.

Metal

Galvanized steel is used for production. Using a metal dowel, you can attach various elements to the foam block - from a picture to a wall cabinet.

A special feature of metal fasteners is the presence of a side, which protects it from falling into the drilled hole. The side is equipped with teeth that prevent the fastening element from turning around its own axis.

The advantage of metal fasteners is that they can be unscrewed from the wall and reused. It is designed to be reusable so that it holds the mounting screws just as securely when reattached.

For reliable fixation, several types of consumables for the foam block are used:

1. Dowel nail. It is equipped with a countersunk or spherical head. A threaded nail-screw comes complete with a metal dowel, which has spacer tabs at the end.
2. Foundation bolt. This is a metal rod equipped with a thread at one end and a device for fixing it in a foam concrete wall at the other. Thanks to the foundation bolt, complex and heavy structures can be secured to a porous surface.
3. Self-tapping screws function together with plastic fasteners equipped with high ribs. During installation, the hardware is able to expand the dowel sleeve, and it cuts into the material with its edges, making it dense.
4. The M4 screw is mounted in a plastic dowel with a screw thread.
5. Simple anchor. It has a spacer part, which, when expanded in the body of the block under the pressure of a nail, provides a strong fixation with the material.

Plastic dowel

A universal product, as it is used in most types of construction and installation work. The main advantages are a long service life and high wear resistance. It is used for installing light structures: gratings, consoles and pipelines.

Thanks to the relief thread, the process of inserting the dowel into the foam concrete occurs without damaging the plaster layer. In construction, fastenings with a diameter of 4-12 mm are most often used. Using a screwdriver, hardware is screwed into them.

The principle of operation of plastic fasteners is to expand the surface of the fastener while screwing in the hardware. When it is expanded with a screw, it is securely and firmly fixed in the body of the block.

Drilling foam blocks is done using a conventional drill, not a hammer drill. First, a hole is made, then it is cleaned, and then the fastener is inserted. If the dowel is screw-in, then you should tighten it, and then insert a screw and tighten it to the required depth.

Frame

Frame dowels are used to secure door and window openings. They can be plastic or metal. They are distinguished by a long spacer part, at the end of which there is a through hole. Due to the increased length, fixation is carried out in several planes of porous materials, which is foam concrete. It is the frame that can withstand a very high load.

Chemical anchor

Currently, the most durable and reliable fastener for foam concrete walls remains a chemical anchor. It will provide a strong connection to the material, high load characteristics at the attachment point, and also the absence of stress in the foam block.

The bonding solution for installing anchors has the following components:

Cement is the inorganic part of the mixture. Thanks to it, the best adhesion to the base is achieved. Highly reactive resin is an organic component of the adhesive mass, which has an optimal hardening time.

The container with the composition is divided into 2 chambers. During extrusion, both components pass through a static mixer and are mixed in the required proportions. Thanks to the mixer, an uninterrupted supply of solution to the anchor unit is achieved. The cylinder is installed in a regular pressing gun, which is used for applying various adhesives and sealants.

The chemical anchor has the following advantages:

• high load-bearing and load capacity;
• environmental friendliness, safety;
• resistance to frost (the composition resists temperature changes in the range of -30/+40 degrees);
• versatility;
• ease of use.

Compared to other fasteners, the cost of a chemical anchor is quite high, but it is fully justified by the reliability, durability and long service life of the fastener. It will not become loose over time, will not fall out, and you can attach not only shelves, mirrors and chandeliers to it, but even hanging boilers.

Builders' recommendations

It is advisable to buy adhesive foam for aerated concrete from trusted suppliers. Particular attention should be paid to the expiration date of the product. If the buyer does not know which foam to choose, then he should contact a construction company for help. The company's employees will provide free consultation on issues of interest. If you need a large batch of a product, it is better to first purchase several units, after which you can safely purchase the rest.

The use of modern adhesive mortar is beneficial, practical, fast and cheap, in comparison with cement and other sand-based variations.

Adhesive foam occupies the highest level of the pedestal, since it eliminates “wet” processes from construction. It is economical, reliable and holds aerated concrete blocks together incredibly tenaciously. For its ease of use and its performance characteristics, adhesive foam has earned respect from professionals. Many novice builders do not know why many people use adhesive foam for aerated concrete. Reviews from professionals indicate that this adhesive ensures fine joints in the masonry and reduces heat loss in the building.

Reviews of products from different manufacturers

If you want to use adhesive for aerated blocks for work, it is recommended to read reviews about it. As users emphasize, the Kreps mixture has an optimal composition and high performance qualities. This product can be used both outdoors and indoors and features efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Before purchasing, it is also important to pay attention to the technical characteristics, among them – the maximum grain size of the filler, which can reach a parameter of 0.6 millimeters; as well as the thickness of the layer, in this case it is 3 millimeters. As practice shows and experts say, the exposure time is equivalent to 10 minutes; the block can be adjusted during the same period. Complete drying will occur after 4 hours. You must take into account the average consumption, this will save money that could have been spent on purchasing unclaimed packages of glue. Approximately 25 kilograms of composition will be needed per 1 cubic meter.

Which installation to choose

I prefer the cavitation one from Sarmat-Tornado. The arguments are as follows:

• no need to bother with foam - regulate, select its density
• small dimensions
• no foam generator, which means fewer nodes where something can break
• the creators of “Sarmat-tornado” themselves work with this installation, about which there are a number of videos on their channel

There is only one minus - it's expensive. Although this is relative. After all, a) this installation can be sold after construction is completed and b) you can make money from it and, if not at home, then at least insulate floors to order.
