Perlite showed an intense reflection at a 2θ value of 23.5° as defined in the literature and the small peaks were belonged to feldspar and quartz that perlite includes in its structure [21]. Two separate reflections appeared at 2 θ value of 31.5° and 45.5° which pointed out Na-perlite.
Perlite granules were coated with TiO2 particles (Anatase/Rutile: 80/20, particle size around: 22 nm, surface area: 55 m2/g), and used as a photocatalyst. Perlite is a volcanic glass able to expand 4-20 times of its original volume upon heating, resulting in flakes with porosity greater than 95% [15]. The pieces of this material can easily

How Perlite Helps: By integrating perlite into the mix, the weight of concrete can be reduced by nearly 20%. The resulting lightweight concrete maintains robust strength but is easier to handle, faster to set, and, crucially, puts less stress on the structures it's used in. This lightweight solution is perfect for floor fills, roof decks, and ...
