Perlite concrete and plaster aggregates conforming to ASTM specifications are commonly used in the manufacture of simulated stone. Binders and other components of perlite simulated stone usually include Type I or Type III portland cement, gypsum, lime, clay and castable or other resins. Other additions may include sand, shale, coloring agents, silicates, alkaline resistant fiberglass shorts and polypropylene or wood fibers. Mix designs for perlite simulated stone products range from 1:4 (binder:perlite) to 1:10 by volume. Mixing is accomplished with ribbon, plaster or other mixers having low shear action. Paddle type and size should be chosen for the lowest shear rate. Stone Product Manufacture. Simulated stone products may be formed by pouring or pressing the molding material into relief molds, by extruding or vibrating into wood or steel molds or forms and by die cutting. Surface finish and configuration of the stone is determined by the mold being used. Applications for Perlite Simulated Stone. Among the applications for lightweight perlite simulated stone are wood shakes, exterior siding, fireplace logs and masonry block, brick and stone for exterior and interior applications. Perlite may also be used in the manufacture of adhesives, glues, and mortars used to affix simulated stone to a variety of exterior faces.
