Abstract
In recent decades, materials with high thermal resistance, refractory, non-toxic, with high mechanical characteristics, durable, affordable easy-to-install thermal insulation materials are of great interest. Durability of available thermal insulating materials, for example cotton insulators is from 10 to 20 years, foam is from 7 to 10 years. During burning process of foam plastics, high-toxic material called phosgene is released. At the same time, fungus forms during the process, and it has adhesion incompatibility with cement. Mineral wool decomposes over time, turning into powder, and the installation of external thermal insulation materials in buildings requires surface finishing to protect it from direct weathering, which incurs additional costs. Recently, composite glasses, glass-crystalline materials synthesized from slag-ash wastes of rocks are in great demand. The goal of this research is to study coal and solid waste of coal pyrolysis as a raw material for the foam glass production. In this work, the chemical, phase and mineralogical composition of coal from the Magavuz deposit in the Republic of Artsakh and solid residues of its catalytic pyrolysis have been studied by the modern methods of analysis. Based on the results, a heat-insulating material has been developed, in which pyrolysis waste also plays the role of a gas generator. The selected heat treatment mode ensures the production of heat-insulating foam with high porosity, uniformly distributed in the volume, with sufficient mechanical properties.
