Improvements in and relating to board products

摘要

A fire-resistant board product is comprised of a hydraulic cement binder reinforced by a mixture of long and short staple vitreous fibres, silica in an amount at least sufficient to react with the free lime in the cement, together with from 1 to 10% by weight of a cellulosic fibre. Optionally, the board product further includes at least one low density filler which may provide at least part of the silica component.
