• High Temperature Resistant Materials. A unique benefit of ash-based pozzolanic cements is their high temperature resistance capabilities. Ash-based cements are naturally refractory given their amorphous glass chemistry. Coupled with other high-temperature admixtures, these products are the only materials that have passed Mach 1 shock testing at 1700°F (927 ºC) for 300 cycles. This result has qualified the material for use as a run-up and takeoff pad for current emerging vertical takeoff aircraft (VTOL) including the AV-8, V-22 Osprey, and the new Joint Strike Fighter.
