Construction

Zeolite is a versatile and effective material that can improve many aspects of construction. It can improve structural integrity, energy efficiency, and indoor environmental quality. Its various benefits in cement, concrete, building additives, and asphalt additives can be listed.​

Concrete Additive

Zeolite is added to concrete mixtures as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) to improve strength, durability, and workability. It enhances the hydration process, reduces the heat of hydration, and mitigates the alkali-silica reaction, resulting in more durable and sustainable concrete structures.

⁠Asphalt Additive

Zeolite is an additive in asphalt pavements to improve resistance to rutting, cracking, and moisture damage. It also reduces the aging effects of oxidation, leading to longer-lasting and more resilient roads.

⁠Lightweight Aggregate

Zeolite can be processed into lightweight aggregates for concrete, blocks, and panels. These materials offer thermal insulation, reduce structural dead load, and improve energy efficiency in buildings.

Moisture Control

Zeolite-based materials, such as zeolite membranes or coatings, are used for moisture control in building envelopes. They regulate humidity levels, prevent moisture buildup, and inhibit mold and mildew growth, enhancing indoor air quality and occupant comfort.

⁠Insulation

Zeolite is incorporated into insulation materials to improve thermal performance and moisture management. It provides effective insulation against heat transfer and reduces energy consumption for heating and cooling, contributing to sustainable building design.
