Claims
- 1. A shaped article made from expanded minerals, obtained by using a mineral binder system consisting essentially either of calcium aluminate and aluminum phosphate or of waterglass and a catalyst to consolidate an expanded mineral which has been rendered hydrophobic and wherein the expanded mineral is rendered hydrophobic by means of an organosiloxane of the formulae ##STR5## in which R.sub.1 denotes C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 -alkyl, preferably methyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.7 -alkenyl, phenyl or benzyl, X denotes an alkali metal ion and n denotes a number from 1 to 10, ##STR6## in which R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 denote C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkyl, preferably methyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.8 -alkenyl, phenyl, benzyl or styryl and n denotes a number from 1 to 1,000, ##STR7## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 denote C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkyl, preferably methyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.8 -alkenyl, phenyl, benzyl or styryl and n denotes a number from 1 to 100 and m denotes a number from 1 to 100 or ##STR8## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 can be identical or different and denote C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.18 -alkenyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 -alkylphenyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.18 -acyl or C.sub.2 -C.sub.18 -alkyl which is substituted in the .omega.-position by a carboxyl, amino, hydroxyl or oxirane group and R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 can be identical or different and denote C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.7 -alkenyl, phenyl, benzoyl or benzyl.
- 2. A shaped article as claimed in claim 1, obtained by consolidation of an expanded mineral which has been rendered hydrophobic by means of an organosiloxane of the formulae (a), (b) or (c) in which R.sub.1 denotes methyl in each case.
- 3. A shaped article as claimed in claim 1, obtained by consolidation of an expanded mineral which has been rendered hydrophobic by means of 0.1 to 5% by weight of the organosiloxane.
- 4. A shaped article as claimed in claim 1, obtained by using 2 to 25% by weight of aluminum phosphate, relative to the expanded mineral, and 10 to 50% by weight of calcium aluminate, relative to the aluminum phosphate, to consolidate the expanded mineral which has been rendered hydrophobic by means of the organosiloxane.
- 5. A shaped article as claimed in claim 1, obtained by using 5 to 15% by weight of an alkali metal silicate in the form of waterglass and 0.1 to 4% by weight of a catalyst, relative to the expanded mineral, to consolidate the expanded mineral which has been rendered hydrophobic by means of the organosiloxane.
