Advantages and disadvantages of cement blanket products
Convenient and Efficient Construction
- Cement blankets solidify rapidly upon contact with water (no traditional mixing required), becoming waterproof, fireproof, and crack-resistant after hardening, with a long service life.
- Lightweight (approximately 15 kg/m²), easy to transport and lay, and can be rolled up and stored like fabric, making it particularly suitable for complex terrains (such as trenches and vertical surfaces).
- Fast construction speed, saving approximately 60% of construction time and 90% of materials, improving project efficiency.
Superior Performance**
- **High Strength and Durability**: Strong compressive and tensile strength after curing, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and adaptable to harsh environments (such as UV radiation, acids, and alkalis).
- **Waterproof and Fireproof**: Dense, impermeable surface with good fire resistance, suitable for water conservancy projects or scenarios with high fire protection requirements.
- **Strong Erosion Resistance**: Performs excellently in slope protection, resisting water flow impact and reducing soil erosion.
**Flexibility and Wide Applicability**
- Can be cut and spliced to adapt to irregular structures or complex terrains (such as tunnels, slopes, and ditches).
- Versatile applications, covering road paving, water conservancy projects, roof waterproofing, basement damp-proofing, etc.
**Environmental Protection and Economy**
- Low energy consumption during production, reducing dust pollution and meeting environmental protection requirements.
- Low maintenance costs, high cost-effectiveness in the long run.
- Requires strict foundation treatment (such as a level ground surface and cement base), otherwise cracking or leakage may occur.
- When laying multiple layers, the joints may not be strong, requiring professional construction techniques.
**Cost and Material Limitations**
- Higher cost than traditional concrete, and must be purchased from reputable sources to avoid inferior products.
- High surface hardness may cause tire wear; use must be weighed according to the scenario.
**Limitations in Environmental Adaptability**
- It has limited adaptability to environments with extreme low temperatures or large temperature differences, requiring additional protective measures.

**Recommended Application Scenarios**
- **Recommended Scenarios**: Construction of irregular structures, temporary roads, water conservancy protection, rapid repair projects, etc.
- **Scenarios to Use with Caution**: Heavy traffic roads, loose ground without foundation treatment, extreme climate areas.
