Abstract
A foam concrete with elemental sulfur has constituents that include a cement, a fine filler, an elemental sulfur in powder form, a coarse aggregate, a water, and a foam solution. The foam solution includes a foaming agent and a foaming water. The foam concrete has a compressive strength of at least 26 MPa, a thermal conductivity of less than 0.30 W/mK and a maximum dry weight of 1620 kg/m3.
C04B 28/02 - Compositions of mortars, concrete or artificial stone, containing inorganic binders or the reaction product of an inorganic and an organic binder, e.g. polycarboxylate cements containing hydraulic cements other than calcium sulfates
C04B 111/10 - Compositions characterised by the absence of a specified material
C04B 111/12 - Absence of asbestos, e.g. cement-asbestos substitutes

Abstract
A sulfur concrete has constituents that include a coarse aggregate in an amount in a range of 40-50 wt% of the weight of the sulfur concrete, a fine aggregate in an amount in a range of 20-40 wt% of the weight of the sulfur concrete, a fine filler in an amount in a range of 8-12 wt% of the weight of the sulfur concrete, and a binder in an amount in a range of 12- 20 wt% of the weight of the sulfur concrete. The binder includes elemental sulfur in an amount in a range of 25-60 wt % of the weight of the binder and asphalt in an amount in a range of 40-75 wt % of the weight of the binder.
C04B 28/36 - Compositions of mortars, concrete or artificial stone, containing inorganic binders or the reaction product of an inorganic and an organic binder, e.g. polycarboxylate cements containing sulfur, sulfides or selenium
C04B 26/26 - Bituminous materials, e.g. tar, pitch
