Materials systems resistant to penetration of molten salts and may be present within a molten-salt-facing wall of a device for containing a molten salt bath at an elevated temperature, and molten-salt-facing walls and devices formed by such materials systems. A first layer of such a system defines an outer surface for direct contact with the molten salt bath, and resists erosion and corrosion and is penetrable by the molten salt at the elevated temperature. A second layer is located adjacent to the first layer and exhibits little or no wetting by the molten salt so that at least a portion of a thickness of the second layer is not penetrable by the molten salt. A third layer is located adjacent to the second layer and is porous and exhibits a low thermal conductivity at the elevated temperature.

A composite fireproof board has a structure that includes, from top to bottom, a bottom layer, a lower reinforcement mesh layer, a middle layer, an upper reinforcement mesh layer, and a surface layer. The middle layer includes an organic frame and an inorganic fireproof material filled within the frame. The frame is provided with fixed grooves on edges adjacent to the fireproof material, and is further provided with through holes.

The invention relates to a panel, in particular a floor panel, suitable for forming a floor covering, wherein the panel has a substantially planar top side, and a substantially planar bottom side, at least four substantially linear side edges comprising at least one pair of opposite side edges, preferably provided with locking means.

Disclosed herein are feedstock materials which can be used for the manufacture of industrial products and consumer goods. The feedstock materials comprise particles of a comminuted paper product having fibrous portions on an outer surface thereof distributed throughout a diagenetically formed mineral aggregate comprising gypsum, syngenite and magnesium hydroxide and/or magnesium sulphate. The feedstock material, and products produced therefrom, is adapted to degrade when buried. Also disclosed herein are methods for producing the feedstock materials, and products produced from the feedstock materials.

A magnesium-based fly ash porous sound-absorbing material with a surface hydrophobically modified, and a preparation method thereof are provided. In the preparation method, a basic magnesium sulfate cement is adopted as a cementing agent and a fly ash is adopted as a mineral admixture to prepare a slurry; foaming is conducted through a physical foaming process in a foaming machine to obtain a foam; and the foam is mixed with the slurry, and a resulting mixture is poured and cured, and then subjected to a surface hydrophobic modification through vapor deposition to obtain the sound-absorbing material. The sound-absorbing material has a density of 251 kg/m.sup.3 to 306 kg/m.sup.3, a noise reduction coefficient (NRC) of 0.65 to 0.7, a compressive strength of 1.8 MPa to 2.2 MPa, and a water contact angle of 129° to 151°.
