The invention discloses an aerated concrete block and a preparation method thereof. The aerated concrete block is prepared from the following components: 250-320kg of
cement, 350-400kg of
lime, 1400-1600kg of silica sands, 1.45-1.6kg of
aluminium powder, 0.195-0.205kg of foam stabilizers and water. The preparation method comprises the following steps:
raw material preparing, metering, stirring, pouring into molds, standing and procuring, demolding, lifting to a
cutting part for
cutting,
steam pressure curing in a kettle and finished product warehousing. The block has the advantages of light weight, good
thermal insulation property, processability, convenient construction, wide
raw material sources, high preparation efficiency, low preparation
energy consumption, environment-friendliness and good
fireproofing and
soundproofing properties, specifically, the
bulk density of the block is 500-700kg / m3, which is equivalent to 1 / 3 of the
bulk density of the clay bricks; the block is provided with plentiful pores and micropores inside, thus having good
thermal insulation property; the block dispenses with coarse aggregates, thus having good processability, being capable of being sawed, planed, drilled and stapled, being capable of being bonded by bonding materials and providing favorable conditions for
building construction.
