Product Description
Calcium silicate board, an emerging building material, is made with inorganic mineral fibers or cellulose fibers as strengthening materials and mainly consists of silicon - and calcium - based materials. Through complex processes such as pulping, shaping, and high - temperature and high - pressure curing, these materials combine to form a calcium silicate gel with high strength and excellent properties.
In the production of calcium silicate board, inorganic mineral fibers act as strengthening materials, providing additional strength to the product. Silicon - and calcium - based materials, on the other hand, serve as the basic binding materials, constructing the core structure of the board. The selection of these materials not only ensures the physical properties of the calcium silicate board but also guarantees its overall eco - friendly characteristics.
The manufacturing process of calcium silicate board can be summarized as pulping, shaping, and curing. In the pulping stage, various raw materials are thoroughly mixed to form a homogeneous slurry. Subsequently, the slurry is shaped into boards and then rapidly cured under high - temperature and high - pressure conditions. This process not only enhances the firmness of the material but also improves the density and surface smoothness of the final product.
Product Features
One of the most remarkable features of calcium silicate board is its outstanding fire - resistance. As a Class A non - combustible material, even in the event of a fire, calcium silicate board will never burn and will not release toxic smoke. This property makes it widely used in buildings with high fire - safety requirements.
Unlike some building materials that are prone to expansion or deformation in high - humidity environments, calcium silicate board has remarkable water - resistance. It can maintain stable performance in humid environments such as bathrooms, providing a certain guarantee for a healthy home environment.
The strength of calcium silicate board far exceeds that of ordinary gypsum boards. For example, a 6mm - thick calcium silicate board can have significantly higher strength than a 9.5mm - thick ordinary gypsum board. This makes the building's structure, such as walls and ceilings, more solid and reliable.

Advantages
During the production process, the wet expansion and dry shrinkage rates of calcium silicate board are strictly controlled, ensuring the stability of the board in different environments and greatly reducing deformation caused by temperature or humidity changes.
Calcium silicate board performs excellently in heat insulation and sound insulation. Tests have shown that a 10mm - thick calcium silicate board has better heat - insulation performance than traditional brick walls. In addition, its good sound - insulation effect makes the living environment more comfortable.
Calcium silicate board not only performs well physically but also has strong corrosion resistance and is not easily attacked by moisture or insects. This gives calcium silicate board an extremely long service life in long - term industrial and construction applications.
The use of asbestos - free production technology and new raw materials such as wollastonite makes calcium silicate board more cost - effective and competitive in the market. In the construction industry, calcium silicate board is often used as walls, ceilings, and floors. Due to its lightweight and high - strength characteristics, it is very suitable for various types of buildings.
In addition to conventional construction applications, calcium silicate board is also widely used in specialized scenarios such as ship bulkheads and sound barriers, demonstrating its applicability in high - demand environments.
Application
Calcium silicate board plays a crucial role in commercial buildings, offering a wide range of applications that combine functionality, safety, and aesthetics. In large - scale shopping malls and commercial complexes, it is extensively used for interior partitions. Its high strength - to - weight ratio allows for the creation of spacious and flexible layouts, enabling easy reconfiguration of retail spaces, offices, and service areas as business needs change. The board's excellent fire - resistance, classified as Class A1 non - combustible, provides an added layer of safety, protecting the building occupants and assets in case of a fire. This is especially important in densely populated commercial areas where quick evacuation and fire containment are critical.
For the ceiling systems in commercial buildings, calcium silicate board is a preferred choice. Its smooth surface serves as an ideal base for various decorative finishes, such as paint, tiles, or acoustic panels, allowing architects and designers to create visually appealing and functional ceilings. Moreover, the board's sound - insulation properties help to reduce noise levels from busy shopping floors, offices, or adjacent areas, creating a more comfortable and productive environment for shoppers and employees. In addition, calcium silicate board's water - resistance makes it suitable for use in food courts, cafes, and other areas with high humidity, preventing issues like warping, swelling, and mold growth.
Exterior wall cladding in commercial buildings also benefits from the use of calcium silicate board. Its weather - resistance enables it to withstand harsh environmental conditions, including strong winds, heavy rain, and intense sunlight, without deteriorating. This not only protects the building structure but also maintains the building's aesthetic appeal over time. The board can be customized with different colors and textures, allowing commercial buildings to have a unique and professional appearance that stands out in the urban landscape.
