Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to a composite material for construction purposes, constituted by a mixture based on cement, pozzuolanas and glass fibers, wherein the mixture comprises: on the one hand, hydrated pozzuolanas obtained from kaolinic compounds, and on the other hand, non-metallic, inorganic glass fibers sensitive to alkalis. The invention also relates to processes for making this product adapted for the manufacture of bearing or insulating panels for buildings.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 56 words
A composite glass-fiber reinforced construction material, comprising: a cement compound which generates lime; less than 10% by weight of non-metallic inorganic non-alkali resistant glass fibers; and synthetic pozzuolanas obtained by calcination from kaolinic compounds, said kaolinic compounds containing at least 40% by weight of Kaolin, selected from the group consisting of clays, laterities and tropical soils.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 56 words
A composite glass-fiber reinforced construction material, comprising: a cement compound which generates lime; less than 10% by weight of non-metallic inorganic non-alkali resistant glass fibers; and synthetic pozzuolanas obtained by calcination from kaolinic compounds, said kaolinic compounds containing at least 40% by weight of Kaolin, selected from the group consisting of clays, laterities and tropical soils.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 30 words
The composite material of claim 1, wherein the cement compound is artificial Portland cement and a mass ratio between the synthetic kaolinic pozzuolanas and the Portland cement is approximately one.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 29 words
