Le coffrage isolant Polycrete est composé de deux séries de panneaux symétriques et parallèles en polystyrène expansé de type 3 qui s’emboîtent les uns dans les autres gràce à des profilés de polymère en forme de «T». Cette double paroi est retenue par des tiges d’assemblage métalliques qui s’insèrent dans les profilés. La longueur des tiges détermine l'épaisseur du mur et, par conséquent, celle de la cavité où le béton sera coulé. Ces tiges d’assemblage servent aussi de support à l'acier d’armature. Une fois le béton mis en place, on obtient un mur «sandwich» porteur qui possède une résistance de loin supérieure aux structures conventionnelles. 4, record 13, French, - mur%2Dsandwich

ICFs [Insulating concrete forms] are used to make structural concrete walls, and can be used to make either foundation or above-grade walls. The forms are typically made from pure foam-plastic insulation but may also be made from a composite of cement and foam insulation or a composite of cement and processed wood.

Le polystyrène. Cet isolant en panneaux de mousse plastique est disponible en deux catégories-extrudé(PSX) ou expansé(PSE) et en quatre types(I à IV). Le type I a la plus faible résistance thermique et la plus grande perméabilité à la vapeur d’eau et à l'absorption d’eau; le type IV, la plus haute résistance thermique et la plus faible perméabilité. Les panneaux extrudés sont faits de polystyrène, de solvants et de gaz pressurisé. On note qu'avec le temps, les agents gonflants(HCFC rongeant moins la couche d’ozone que le CFC), le styrène et le chlorure d’éthylène, sont lentement libérés dans l'air ambiant.

The three types of foam plastic are blown, syntactic, and structural. Blown foam is an expanded matrix, similar to a natural sponge; syntactic foam is the encapsulation of hollow organic or inorganic micro spheres in the plastic matrix; and structural foam is a foamed core surrounded by a solid outer skin. All three types of foam plastic can be produced using processes such as injection, extrusion, and compression molding to create foam products in many of the same shapes as solid plastics products. The difference is that creating foam products requires processes such as the addition of chemical blowing agents, different mixing processes which add air to the plastic matrix, or a unique injection molding process used to make structural plastic. 3, record 18, English, - structural%20foam

Polystyrène expansé. Préparation : La matière de base est un granulé d’homopolymère polystyrène qui contient du pentane à l'état liquide comme agent gonflant. Cette inclusion est faite au niveau de la polymérisation et le produit à ce stade est dit polystyrène expansible. Par chauffage(généralement à la vapeur d’eau), on obtient, par gonflement et autocollage, des billes qui peuvent être associées en forme. Le polystyrène expansé est une mousse toujours rigide comportant 98 % d’air immobilisé dans 4 à 6 millions de cellules par décimètre cube(le pentane disparaît par porosité et laisse des bulles d’air). 2, record 28, French, - polystyr%C3%A8ne%20expansible

Basically the process consists of embedding the foam patterns in sand and then pouring the casting metal directly into the foam.
