Perlite, expanded

Description:

Expanded perlite is a naturally occurring volcanic glass that has been processed through heating to create a lightweight, porous material. Its primary characteristics include a low density, high thermal insulation properties, and excellent moisture retention capabilities, making it a popular choice in horticulture, construction, and industrial applications. The expansion process involves heating perlite to high temperatures, causing it to expand significantly and form a white, granular substance. This expanded form is chemically inert, non-toxic, and resistant to decay, which contributes to its versatility. Additionally, expanded perlite has a high surface area, which enhances its ability to retain water and nutrients in soil mixtures, promoting healthy plant growth. Its fire-resistant properties also make it suitable for use in fireproofing materials and as an aggregate in lightweight concrete. Overall, expanded perlite is valued for its combination of lightweight structure, insulation capabilities, and environmental benefits.
