Product Description
Calcium silicate board, with the English name calcium silicate, uses inorganic mineral fibers or cellulose fibers as enhancing materials and silicon - calcium materials as the main binding materials. After pulping and shaping, it undergoes an accelerated curing reaction in high - temperature and high - pressure saturated steam to form a calcium silicate gel, thus producing the board. It is a new - type green building material that not only has the performance of traditional gypsum boards but also has an extremely excellent fire - resistance performance, along with advantages such as moisture - resistance and durability. This board is widely used in the construction of ceiling ceilings and partitions in industrial and commercial engineering buildings, home decoration, furniture linings, billboard linings, ship bulkheads, warehouse shed boards, network floors, and wall panels in indoor projects such as tunnels.

Product Features
Compared with fiber cement pressure boards, calcium silicate boards and fiber cement pressure boards have some similarities. They have similar raw material components, both containing silica powder, calcium, and fibers; both go through processes such as pulping, picking (or slurry - flowing), and shaping; their appearance shapes and length - width specifications are similar; and their application scopes overlap in many aspects, such as in the fields of interior walls and insulation boards. However, they also have differences. For example, calcium silicate boards contain less cement and often use sand, cement, and fly ash as substitutes. The raw material of fiber cement pressure boards is portland cement. In terms of density, the density of calcium silicate boards is approximately 1.2g/cm³, while that of fiber cement pressure boards is about 1.8g/cm³, so the latter has a higher density.
Our calcium silicate board exhibits excellent moisture - resistant properties with a very small expansion rate. It is impervious to vermin and other insects. In terms of specifications, it typically has a beige - off - white color (distinct from the gray of cement). The density is 1350 kg/m³, and the dimensions are commonly 1220 x 2440 mm with a smooth surface. It has a heavy - duty impact strength, shows no water formation after 24 hours of water permeability testing, and has an alkalinity of pH 9. Available thicknesses include 4.5 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 9 mm, 12 mm, 14 mm, 16 mm, and 18 mm. It conforms to ASTM C1186 quality standards, is non - toxic, emits no harmful gases under any conditions, and is asbestos - free. It can withstand temperatures of over 1000 °C and has acoustic properties ranging from 30 - 80 dB. Moreover, it has excellent chemical resistance and high - durability performance.
It finds applications in various fields such as structural steel protection, fire - protection for kitchen exhaust ducts, HC fire tunnel protection, fire - rated doors, ceiling and wall partitions, and raised flooring systems.
Advantages
Calcium silicate board stands out as a top - tier building material, primarily due to its exceptional fire - resistance. Classified as a non - combustible Class A material, it remains stable even in intense fire situations, neither burning nor emitting toxic fumes. This characteristic makes it an ideal choice for high - rise buildings, hospitals, and schools, where fire safety is of utmost importance.
Another significant advantage lies in its outstanding water - resistance. Unlike many traditional building materials that deteriorate when exposed to moisture, calcium silicate board maintains its structural integrity in humid environments. Whether used in bathrooms, kitchens, or basements, it resists warping, swelling, and mold growth, ensuring long - term durability and reliability. This water - resistant property also reduces the need for frequent maintenance and replacement, saving both time and costs for building owners.
Moreover, calcium silicate board offers excellent thermal insulation. Its low thermal conductivity helps to regulate indoor temperatures, keeping buildings cool in summer and warm in winter. This energy - efficient feature not only enhances the comfort of occupants but also contributes to significant energy savings, reducing heating and cooling expenses. Additionally, the board's sound - insulation capabilities create a quiet and peaceful indoor environment by minimizing noise transmission from the outside, making it perfect for residential and commercial buildings alike.
Application
In residential construction, calcium silicate board offers numerous advantages that enhance the comfort, safety, and durability of homes. It is commonly used for interior walls, providing an effective solution for room division. The board's lightweight nature simplifies the construction process, reducing the overall load on the building's foundation and structure. This is particularly beneficial in multi - story residential buildings, where minimizing the weight of building materials is crucial for structural integrity. Additionally, calcium silicate board's excellent sound - insulation properties help to create quiet and private living spaces, reducing noise transmission between rooms and from the outside environment. This is especially important in urban areas or homes located near busy streets.
For the ceiling of residential houses, calcium silicate board provides a reliable and aesthetically pleasing option. Its smooth surface can be easily painted or decorated to match the interior design of the home, adding a touch of elegance and style. The board's fire - resistance ensures the safety of the residents, as it does not burn or release toxic fumes in case of a fire, giving homeowners peace of mind. Moreover, calcium silicate board's water - resistance makes it suitable for use in bathrooms and kitchens, where moisture is prevalent. It prevents damage from water exposure, such as warping and mold growth, ensuring the long - term durability of the ceiling.
Calcium silicate board is also used in residential exterior applications, such as siding. Its weather - resistance allows it to withstand the elements, protecting the home from rain, snow, and UV rays. The board's durability ensures that the exterior of the house remains in good condition for many years, reducing the need for frequent maintenance and replacement. Additionally, its ability to be painted in a variety of colors gives homeowners the freedom to customize the look of their homes, enhancing the curb appeal and making their houses stand out in the neighborhood.
