For centuries, zeolite tuffs, have been used as a suitable building material due to have more desirable physical and mechanical strength in comparison to other natural building materials.

Clinoptilolite Zeolite  is an aluminosilicate mineral with a porous structure with high mechanical, chemical and thermal stability, reasonable price, and environmentally friendly and non-toxic nature. These properties made it possible to use this mineral widely in the construction field.

 Zeolite is very useful to prevent the attack of alkali on the glass fibers of Portland reinforced cements. Zeolite is also used in the manufacture of light ceramics. One of the main effective factors in using zeolites as building materials is their ability to store heat and their unique properties in the reversible adsorption and desorption of water molecules.

Adjusting the ambient temperature with the help of zeolites is also associated with regulating the ambient humidity.

The use of zeolite in CLC lightweight blocks is a more suitable and durable alternative to industrial and mineral pumice. In light AAC blocks, zeolite replaces hazardous aluminum powder as a source of hydrogen gas production as well as silica fillers. The formation of silica gel in combination with zeolite and cement firstly causes a very hard and impermeable coating and on the other hand releases hydrogen and oxygen bubbles. It will produce completely light, very strong and durable blocks.
