  • Abstract
    Under the background of the global energy crisis and advocating low-carbon economy, people´s awareness of energy-saving has been continuously improved. A series of energy saving equipment, technology and materials etc. have come out along with the development of science and technology. In the global energy consumption system, the energy consumption of the building account for a relatively large proportion. Therefore, energy-saving building has become the focal point of developing the future construction and building energy efficiency can be regarded as the most effective and direct measure to resolve the conflict of the energy shortage, reduce environmental pollution and promote sustainable development of economy. With the consideration of structural design and material selection, energy-saving buildings should choose heat-retaining materials to reduce heat transfer. The foamed composites, the new fire-resistant material, just meet the needs with its low prices, excellent thermal insulation and less environmental pollution and will be used widely in the fields of building energy efficiency.
