Original Abstract

Good thermal insulation properties of the surface structures lead to reduction of heat losses in buildings. This reduces the energy required for heating which is positive fact from the view protection of the environment. The aim of the research intent, which is going at Faculty of Civil Engineering in Brno, is the development of high-quality, thermal insulating plasters using both conventional binders, and alternative binders, whose acquisition-production is in comparison with the technology production of cement less energy intensive. Due to the fact that increasing moisture leads to deterioration of the thermal insulating properties, further research works were devoted to the study of the influence of relative humidity and moisture content on the thermal insulation properties of lightweight plasters, including of the determination of capillary absorption coefficient. This paper describes evaluation of the development of insulating plasters based on lightweight aggregates, using different ratio of cement and lime hydrate and other chemical additives. There are presented results of the study of basic physical and thermal insulating properties, including the study of sorption properties developed lightweight plaster mixtures.
