Compositions of the foam glass based on thermal power plant’s slag waste – foamed slag glass – have been developed. The most widespread foaming agents - anthracite, chalk, glycerol, graphite – have been chosen on the basis of published data. Synthesis of the samples at various temperatures has been conducted. Structure and properties of the obtained samples has been determined, the relationship between the type and amount of introduced foaming agents and changes in the structure and properties of the samples have been established. The best type of foaming agent for the synthesis of foamed slag glass has been selected. https://www.biotech-asia.org/vol12_nospl_edn2/investigation-of-the-influence-of-foaming-agents-type-and-ratio-on-the-foaming-and-reactionary-abilities-of-foamed-slag-glass/ Slag waste; Thermal insulation; Foam glass; Foaming agents
