Abstract

Expanded perlite particles and vermiculite particles are treated with an acid solution and then with waterglass. The moist material is introduced into any insulating cavity and allowed to dry, whereupon it self-adheres into a solid insulating sheet which also adheres to the surrounding cavity surfaces. The moist material is also used to make molded articles which are then treated further with an acid solution to render them stable.
