Cement Additive Cenosphere

definition

We mainly produce lightweight cenosphere. It is also called hollow microspheres. 

They’re extracted from fly ash of the thermal power plants and main chemical 

composition is aluminium silicate. They’re lightweight greywhite hollow 

microspheres in closed and smooth surface.
