Specifications
Perlite, Horticulture Perlite, Perlite Filter Aids: 0.1-1.2mm,1-2mm, 2-4mm, 3-5mm, 50-80mesh, 60-90mesh, 60-120mesh, 50-150meshPerlite in the natural state is a dense, glassy rock formed by volcanic action, which in the raw form contains about 3 % of crystal water and has a density of about 1,050 kg/m3. When rapidly heated to high temperature (1.000 °C) the water vaporizes instantaneously and the crushed perlite "pops" like pop corn, expanding till 20 times its original volume. The resulting snow-white granules are composed of many tiny closed air cells or bubbles. They are very light in density, fully inert and neutral. The resultant cellular structure accounts for the lightweight and excellent thermal insulation properties. Due to the sealed nature of the cells, expanded perlite has more strength and resists penetration of water to a greater extend than open celled aggregates of the same weight.
