Development of Vacuum Insulation Panels with Utilization of Organic By-Products
(MDPI, 2020-03-04)
The need for the development of new, advanced building materials increases every year, especially due to the necessary diminution of energy performance for building structures and for building production itself (including ...
Repairing composite using hazardous waste containing heavy metals
(IOP Publishing, 2018-07-16)
This research deals with the possibility of using hazardous waste in epoxy resinbased polymeric substances. More specifically, it is the use of neutralising galvanic sludge (NGS), which produces as a by-product in the ...
The Effect of Hydrophobization on the Properties of Mortar Mixtures
(IOP Publishing, 2018-08-01)
One of the possible methods to reduce degradation effects due to the influence of moisture on building structures and materials is the use of hydrophobic agents - hydrophobization. The article deals with the influence of ...
Use of Secondary Crystallization and Fly Ash in Waterproofing Materials to Increase Concrete Resistance to Aggressive Gases and Liquids
(Hindawi Limited, 2019-05-30)
This paper describes the use of cement-based waterproofing screed and waterproofing coating, in which 10% of the original amount of cement was replaced by fly ash and 2% of the crystallization admixture was added by weight ...
Thermodynamic Stability of Ettringite Formed by Hydration of Ye’elimite Clinker
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2016-09-08)
Although the stability of ettringite has been the subject of much research, the solution is not yet fully clear. Ettringite is generally considered to be stable up to a temperature of 110°C; however, some investigators ...
Alternative Evaluation of the grindability of Pozzolanic Materials for Cement Production
(IOP Publishing, 2017-10-25)
All conventional methods for the evaluation of grindability require a specific grinding instrument. These grinding instruments do not have any other practical use and thus are not very common. This paper focuses on the ...
Monitoring the long-term durability and microstructure of polymer concrete patching materials with high content of secondary raw materials using advanced methods
(IOP Publishing, 2018-07-16)
For commercially produced polymer systems, only primary raw materials are used
as fillers. These fillers are predominantly pure silica sand of various grading. The substitution
of primary materials with secondary raw ...
Study of hydration process of ternesite clinker
(IOP Publishing, 2018-07-16)
Currently ternesite, Ca5(SiO4)2SO4, is used in the cement production, is one of two
key phases of calcium sulfoaluminate cement. Some investigators claim that this phase is nearly inert or very low reactive and it hydrates ...
Raw materials for mullite grog manufacturing
(IOP Publishing, 2018-07-07)
The primary condition for manufacturing is the correct choice of raw
material, a suitable treatment facility, and a kiln capable of firing at temperatures above 1400
°C. This paper assesses some local raw materials for ...
Usability of alternative admixtures for the production of blended cements
(IOP Publishing, 2018-07-16)
This paper studies how pozzolan materials can be mechanically activated. For this, two major grinding technologies and different types of artificial pozzolans, such as red brick dust, granulated blastfurnace slag and sheet ...
