Zusammenfassung:Low-flammability heat-insulating layers are produced in cavities of masonry or hollow building blocks by introducing foam particles of expanded plastic, preferably expanded polystyrene, and inorganic binder into the cavities. A preferred inorganic binder is an alkali metal silicate in the form of an aqueous solution or suspension. In a preferred embodiment the binder is an aqueous sodium silicate solution having a solids content of 25 to 55% by weight and containing the following additives: a) 2 to 10% by weight of precipitated silica, b1) 5 to 50% by weight of sodium silicate powder or b2) 1 to 30% by weight of slaked lime, and c) 0.05 to 0.5% by weight of a surfactant.
