IMPROVEMENTS TO MODULAR BUILDINGS AND MATERIALS USED IN THEIR CONSTRUCTION

摘要

A composite material comprising silica cenospheres and a resin, whereby the resin is adapted to bind the cenospheres into a solid mass and retain them in a desired shape into which the composite material is to be formed. The resin is a polymeric compound, formed in situ around the cenospheres. The composite material can be used to form constructional elements used in modular buildings. As such they can include fire retardant materials to improve the safety of the buildings.
