Cenospheres for Concrete Slurry

Product Detail:
  • Cenospheres are tiny hollow ceramic spheres. They are the by-product of coal burning power plants.
  • Cement can bond to these spheres, so they are ideal for a slurry mix where normal sand is too large and grainy to fill small voids.
  • Add to cement to create a slurry mix for filling pinholes and air pocket voids in concrete.
  • Cement paste with cenospheres mixed in will greatly reduce the shrinkage of the slurry.
  • Replace up to 20% of sand, by volume, with cenospheres to create stronger and lighter concrete.
  • Cenospheres act as tiny ball bearings, making the cement slurry fill small voids much easier.

  • Product Specifications:
  • Available Sizes: Quart container: 10 oz. by weight. 20 lbs: 12" x 12" x 12" box.
  • Sphere size: 63 Microns (at 50% passing).
  • Bulk Density (weight): 18 lbs. per cubic foot of spheres.
  • Compressive Strength: 1670 PSI.
  • Color: Light grey/off white.
  • Application: Mix 10-30% cenospheres to cement, by weight. Example: To create one pound of slurry with a 10% cenosphere mix, combine 1.6 ounces cenospheres to 14.4 ounces of cement.
