Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To produce foamed glass which has closed cells and can maintain characteristics stable for a long period of time. SOLUTION: SiC as a foaming agent is added at 1% by weight and compounds of Zr, Cr and Ti as non-melting components are added, respectively at prescribed ratios, to soda-lime-base waste glass having an average grain size of 80 μm and these materials are mixed for 16 hours by a dry process in a ball mill made of alumina earthenware. The resulted powder is put into an alumina crucible where the powder is heated up to 800 deg.C at a heating up rate of 100 deg.C/hour, is held for one hour and is slowly cooled. The foamed glass is thus obtained.

Further, by molding the resin containing the foamed glass, a lightweight plastic can be manufactured. For example, by injecting a polyester resin or an epoxy resin into a mold filled with foamed glass, or by heating and holding a thermoplastic resin such as polypropylene or polyvinyl chloride in the mold, the foamed glasses are separated from each other. A material tightly bound by the resin is obtained. Since this material contains foamed glass as compared with conventional plastics, it exhibits good corrosion resistance to seawater and can be applied to buoys and the like. In addition, since this material has higher heat resistance than conventional foamed plastics, it can be used for heat insulation.
