Aldoro offers aluminum pigments that are used in the production of self-claved concrete blocks (CCA) due to the chemical reactivity of aluminum in aqueous and alkaline medium with hydrogen release. For this application, Aldoro provides product options in the form of a metallic powder or pasted in DEG (diethylene glycol) to balance the rate of reaction, expansion and consequent generation of hydrogen bubbles, which directly impact the control of density, porosity and mechanical strength of CCA blocks.
