Expanded Glass Spheres
-
Expanded Glass Spheres are lightweight, hollow glass spheres added to the concrete mix to reduce weight and improve insulating properties. They are made by heating and raising a glass to create a rigid, lightweight material. When added to concrete, expanded glass spheres reduce its density without compromising strength, making it an ideal material for applications where weight is a concern, such as in high-rise buildings or bridges. They also improve the insulation properties of concrete, making it a more energy-efficient material.
