What is vermiculite used for?

Answer:

Vermiculite and a suitable amount of insulation glue can be made into insulation board.4, vermiculite is also widely used in medicine, health, animal feed and other industries.
Vermiculite used in greenhouse, with loose soil, good permeability, strong water absorption, high soil temperature, is conducive to the growth of crops, but also reduce the input of fertilizer. In the newly emerged soilless cultivation technology, it is an indispensable raw material.
the expansion of vermiculite on the roof, you can achieve a good temperature insulation effect, so that the house warm in winter and cool in summer. A partition plate of high-rise building with vermiculite brick masonry, with sound insulation, fireproof and heat preservation effect, and can reduce the floor load.
Because vermiculite has a very high melting point, generally reach 1270 to 1370 DEG C, in addition to fire prevention, heat insulation, sound-absorbing, non-toxic, linear expansion coefficient, the special properties of low thermal conductivity and many other materials do not have, therefore in the application of life and industry is very extensive.
