Abstract
Abstract A process for manufacturing inorganic heat insulating material by mixing up water-soluble alkali silicate, alumina cement, metal base foaming agent and foam stabilizing agent into pasty state under presence of water. The heat insulating material manufactured by this process is of the class useful for heat insulating walls of buildings and for heat insulating plates incorporated in machinery.
