AB  - Mineral additives are extensively applied as cement replacement materials in both construction concrete and mortar. Fly ash is one of the most commonly utilized additives which improve Theological properties, as well as thermal and mechanical behavior of mortar, and as such it has been widely investigated. This industrial byproduct comprises heavy metals in its composition; therefore further research is needed to optimize its effective dosage. Moreover, certain sorptive clays, such as natural zeolite and bentonite, can prevent migration of toxic elements from fly ash by immobilizing them in their structure. Ten experimental mortars are prepared with Portland cement, river sand and addition of fly ash, zeolite and/or bentonite in accordance with chemometric experimental design rules. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of mineral additives on thermal and mechanical performances of mortar. Thermal characteristics were monitored via dilatometric analysis and DTA method. Principal component analysis was used on the results of physico-mechanical testing (workability, bulk density, water absorption, shrinkage, compressive and flexural strength) to enable the divisions of the observed samples into groups in the factor space. The performance of Artificial Neural Network was compared with the experimental data in order to develop rapid and accurate method for prediction of mechanical parameters of mortar. The ANN model showed high overall prediction accuracy (r(2) = 0.989, during training cycle). The test results indicate that incorporation of the mineral additives gave cost effective mortars with sufficiently good properties. However, tools of analytical modeling highlighted mortar with zeolite and fly ash as the optimal composition regarding its mechanical performance.

AB  - New global tendencies for waste materials reusing in building materials are imposing the request for improved performances of chemical analysis methods and the improvements of matrices used. A new method for optical emission spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma (ICP-OES) is developed and validated for the chemical analysis (35 elements: Al, Be, Cd, So, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ni, V, Mo, Zn, Pb , Bi, Si, Zr, W, As, Se, Sb, Sn, Ti, Ba, B, Ag, Mg, Ca, K, Na, S, P, Ga, In, Li) in leachate of fly ash. Validation performances and the uncertainty of measurement were resolved. Uncertainty of measurements were resolved by three routes: validation procedure, participation in proficiency testing (PT) schemes and standard method. The obtained method is a new simple and effective analyzing route for determination of undesired trace elements and their quantity comprised in leachates of fly ash, and leachates of building materials with addition of fly ash (cement binders and mortars). In order to prove its accuracy and precision, the developed method was employed on laboratory samples of cement binders and mortars. Results were compared with limit values provided in the standard. Multivariate analyses, i.e. cluster analysis and principal component analysis, were applied to establish interrelations between analyzed samples, and to certify the developed ICP-OES method.

AB  - Adjustment and subsequent validation of energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) method for cement based binders with addition of mineral raw materials (fly ash, zeolite and bentonite) was conducted. Eighteen chemical elements present in the material composition were analyzed: ten major elements (Si, Al, Fe, Ca, Mg, S, Na, K, Ti, P) and eight trace elements (Cr, Zn, Cu, As, Ni, Pb, Sr, Mn). Thirty-five samples of either certified reference materials or reference materials of cement, fly ash and clay were utilized during adjustment and optimization of the investigated ED-XRF procedure. The method was consecutively validated in terms of selectivity, precision, working range, linearity, accuracy, robustness, limits of detection and quantification. Thirty-two samples in total, i.e. three certified reference materials and twenty-nine reference materials, were simultaneously analyzed by ED-XRF and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). Comparison of the outputs of monitored methods showed infinitesimally small differences, as correlation coefficients were extremely good (approximate to 1), which highlighted ED-XRF as highly satiable alternative for ICP-OES for the chemical analysis of cement binders.

AB  - Steatite, as ceramic with composition predominantly resting on magnesium silicate, was produced from economic resources - talc, aluminosilicate clays, and either BaCO3 or feldspar as flux. Titanium dioxide was a doping agent. Four steatite mixtures were mechanically activated in a planetary ball mill for 30, 45 or 60 min, prior to the thermal treatment. Two-step sintering with initial phase set at 1350 degrees C and holding period conducted at 1250 degrees C was applied to initiate diffusion and prevent grain growth. Thereby, a high density ceramic material with low-porous submicron structure was acquired. The effects of TiO2 addition on densification, microstructure, and dielectric characteristics of steatites were monitored. The thermal stability of green mixtures was tested by differential thermal and thermogravimetric analyses. Changes in crystallinity and mineral phase composition were observed by the X-ray diffraction technique. Microstructural visualization with spatial arrangements of individual chemical elements on surface of the sintered ceramics was acquired by scanning electron microscopy accompanied with EDS mapping. In order to test the possibility of employment of the obtained steatites in insulation materials, electrical measurements were conducted by recording variations of the dielectric constant and loss tangent as a function of alternations in the mix-design and the mechanical activation period.

AB  - Instrumental analyses accompanied by analytical modeling tools were employed to assess physico-chemical changes induced by variations in chemical composition of cementitious composites, i.e. mortar binders. Coal combustion ash was utilized as pozzolanic mineral additive. The binders' mix-design was supplemented with sorptive clays to prevent migration of toxic elements from fly ash. The experiment was established on the premise of clay's ion-exchanging ability. Ten binders comprising cement CEM I 42.5 and fly ash, zeolite and/or bentonite additions were prepared in accordance with chemometric experimental design rules. Chemical composition was determined via XRF method. The changes in mineral phases and crystallinity were traced by X-ray diffraction. Hydration mechanisms and thermal behavior were investigated via DTA/TGA. The chemical bonds were identified by FTIR. Morphology of hardened samples was detected by SEM. Mathematical tools employed data sets of instrumental analyses to form a clear differentiation between binders and to assess changes caused by adoption of mineral additives in the mix designs. Sorptive clays showed pozzolanic behavior, thereby causing no incapacitation to the cement hydration mechanism, and classifying as a possible economical resources which can be used in production technology of construction materials to redeem environmental pollution issues of building industry.

AB  - The influence of the sintering method on the mineral phase transformations and development of the crystalline microstructure of steatite ceramics was investigated. The steatite samples were fabricated from talc and bentonite as low-cost raw materials. Feldspar and barium carbonate, as fluxing agents, were altered in the steatite composition. Dilatometric analysis was applied in the monitoring of the dimensional changes and thereby densification of steatite during the traditional sintering (TS) procedure up to 1200 degrees C. Spark plasma sintering (SPS) method was used under the following sintering conditions: 100 degrees C/min heating rate, uniaxial pressure of 50 MPa; sintering temperature 800 degrees C/1 min or 1000 degrees C/2 min. Crystallinity changes and mineral phase transition during sintering were observed by X-ray diffraction technique. Microstructural visualization of the samples and the spatial arrangements of individual chemical elements were achieved via scanning electron microscopy equipped with the EDS mapping. It was found that SPS sintering facilitated all microstructural changes during high temperature treatment and shifted them to lower temperatures. SPS treatment conducted at 1000 degrees C resulted in maximum densification of the steatite powder compacts and the formation stabilized protoenstatite structure.

AB  - In this paper, five types of horizontal single-pitch screw conveyors with modified geometry, with three different lengths (400, 600 and 800 mm) were investigated for transport and auxiliary mixing action of two materials: natural zeolite and quartz aggregate (sand) with particle sizes 3, 4 and 5 mm. The geometry of the screw transporter is changed by welding three additional helices oriented in the same or the opposite direction from screw cutting edges, enabling the premixing of materials, during the transport. The proper mixing of the observed materials provides an adequate disposition of zeolite particles within the composite and prevents agglomeration and interference with cement hydration. Zeolite application as a binder in a building material is a possible solution to environmental pollution problems caused by cement production. The influences of screw length, particle diameter, the studied geometry variations of screw design, on the mixing performances of the screw conveyor-mixer during material transport were explored. All investigations were performed experimentally and numerically, by using Discrete Element Method (DEM). The experimental results and the results of the DEM investigation were used for the development of mathematical models for the prediction of mixing quality, which are presented in the form of second order polynomial and artificial neural network model.

AB  - The effect of the combined actions of milling and hydrophobization procedures applied in construction composites synthesis was investigated. The mortars were prepared with cement (CEM I 42.5) and calcite aggregate complying the standard 1:3 mix ratio. The limestone filler (10 wt%) was added to the mixture upon its mechano-chemical activation in an ultra-centrifugal mill. The activation variables (milling time, rotor velocity, sieve mesh size) were altered to achieve the optimal quality of the powder. The treatment was optimized via chemometric tools. The r(2) values (0.955-0.998) of second order polynomial models accurately predicted the output and the Standard score analysis chose the optimal activation parameters: 4.25 min; 48.58 m/s and 80 gm sieve. The selected filler and all three aggregate fractions were coated with stearic acid via dry procedure. The mortar mixes, prepared with uncoated (M1) and coated (M2) aggregate and filler, were cured for a period of 28 days during which compressive strength and water absorption were monitored. The dimensional changes in mortars were estimated via TMA dilatometer measurements. Thermo-analytical methods (DTA/TGA) were applied in the thermal behavior analysis. Mineralogical and morphological changes in the structure of hardened composite were detected by XRD and SEM, respectively. Limestone aggregate led to lower final compressive strengths in mortar, but it produced an infinitesimally small shrinkage at 1000 degrees C. The hydrophobization via stearic acid initiated the decrease in water absorption and formation of needle-like micro-network that filled structural voids reducing open porosity. The assessment of the effects of limestone utilization as a filler and as an aggregate on the mortar performances confirmed that this novel water-repellent composite is applicable in structural design.

AB  - The focus of the study was on providing insights into interconnections between sintering and development of the crystalline microstructure, and consequently variations in dielectric behavior of four steatites fabricated from a low-cost raw material, i.e. talc. The changes, induced by the alternations of the binders (bentonite, kaolin clay) and fluxing agents (BaCO3, feldspar), were monitored in the temperature range 1000 degrees to 1250 degrees C in which complete densification and re-crystallization of the investigated structures were accomplished. The critical points in the synthesis of steatite materials were assessed by instrumental analyses. Crystallinity changes and mineral phase transition during sintering were monitored by X-ray diffraction technique. Microstructural visualization of the samples and the spatial arrangements of individual chemical elements were achieved via scanning electron microscopy accompanied with EDS mapping. The thermal stability was observed on the green mixtures using differential thermal and thermo gravimetric analyses. Electrical measurements recorded variations of the dielectric constant (epsilon(r)) and loss tangent (tan delta) as a function of the sintering temperature. The investigation highlighted critical design points, as well as the optimal combinations of the raw materials for production of the steatite ceramics for advanced electrical engineering applications.

AB  - The properties of seven montmorillonite-rich bentonites of different geological origin were investigated prior and subsequent to mechano-chemical processing in an ultra-centrifugal mill. The objective of the experiment was altering the bentonite types and activation parameters in order to determine the optimal milling conditions that produce material which is physico-mechanically and microstructurally applicable as a binder replacement and sorbent in the construction composites. The efficiency of bentonite activation was assessed by chemometrics and Artificial neural networks mathematical modeling. Principal component analysis and analysis of variance were used in the observation of the influence of input variables (bentonite chemical composition) and process parameters (milling duration, rotor velocity) on the product characteristics: density, specific surface area, grain size and distribution, cation exchange capacity, melting point, compressive strength, shrinkage and porosity. When the ANN models for the observed responses, related to predicted bentonite characteristics and quality, were compared to experimental results, they correctly predicted the responses. The processed data also adequately fitted to the regression second order polynomial models. The SOP models, which showed r(2) values from 0.357 to 0.948, and were able to predict the observed responses in a wide range of processing parameters, while ANN models performed high prediction accuracy (0.776-0.901) and can be considered as precise for response variables prediction. The combination of the conducted mathematical analyses showed that that increase/decrease in output values was stabilized after 30 min of activation. Mathematically attained interpretations were correlated with the results of the instrumental analyses (XRD, DTA/TG, SEM) to confirm the adoption of B6 bentonite as a preferable type and 30 min as an optimal milling time for acquiring quality of clay powder that will be used in structural and thermal applications.

AB  - The coal fly ash mechano-chemical activation conducted via high energy ultra-centrifugal mill was optimized using mathematical and statistical tools. The aim of the investigation was to accent the merits of alternations in ash processing schemes with a referral regarding the enhancement of the ash reactivity that will lead to its higher volume utilization as a cement replacement in concrete design. The impact of the processing parameters sets (number of rotor revolutions, current intensity, activation period, circumferential rotor speed, mill capacity) on the on the product's quality factors (grain size distribution, average grain size, micronization level, agglomeration tendency, specific surface area) was assessed via Response surface method, Standard score analysis and Principal component analysis in order to obtain the most favorable output. Developed models were able to meticulously predict quality parameters in an extensive range of processing parameters. The calculated r(2) values were in the range of 0.846-0.999. The optimal ash sample, that reached the Standard Score as high as 0.93, was produced using a set of processing parameters appropriate to experimental sequence with applied 120 mu m sieve mesh. The microstructural characteristics were assessed using image-processing values and histogram plots of the activated fly ash SEM images.

AB  - Natural zeolites of clinoptilolite type from seven deposits were submitted to mechano-chemical activation in a Retsch ultra -centrifugal mill. The zeolite types and activation parameters were altered during the experiment with an aim to determine the optimal combination that would produce powder with adequate physico-chemical and microstructural properties for application as a binder replacement and an ion -exchanger in the construction composites. The effects of input variables (chemical composition of the samples) and process parameters (the rotor velocity and the activation period) on the efficiency of zeolite activation were investigated in terms of dependent parameters such as: specific surface area, grain size distribution, cation exchange capacity, melting point, compression strength, shrinking, water absorption and apparent porosity. Cluster analysis, Principal component analysis and Standard score analysis were applied in the assessment of the acquired product quality. Artificial neural networks (ANN) were developed in mathematical modeling of observed responses. Subsequently the ANN was compared to experimental results and the developed second order polynomial models. Developed models showed r(2) values in the 0.822-0.998 range, meaning that they were able to predict the observed responses in a wide range of processing parameters. ANN models performed high prediction accuracy (0.975-0.993) and can be considered as precise and very useful for response variables prediction. The combination of the conducted mathematical analyses isolated Z5 zeolite as a preferable type, and 20000 rpm and 30 min as an optimal activation set of parameters. Mathematically derived conclusions were confirmed by results of instrumental analyses (XRD, DTA/TG, SEM).

AB  - Because of its physico-mechanical and physico-chemical characteristics, fine-ground (i.e. micronized) limestone is widely applied in the production of new materials. Limestone can be used as a filler, coating and/or powder in ceramic composites. The effect of its fine micronization depends on the type of equipment used and on the disintegration process. In this study, the emphasis was placed on investigation of the kinetics of the dry micronization milling of limestone in a state-of-the-art ultra-centrifugal mill with a peripheral comminuting path. The efficiency of the ultra-centrifugal mill with a peripheral comminuting path was determined based on a detailed investigation of the limestone dry micronization, which satisfied all the requirements for technological parameters as well as for micronized product parameters. On the basis of the investigation of these parameters and theory of dry micronization conducted in a state-of-the-art mill with use of advanced instrumental techniques for determination and observation of the most significant physical and chemical characteristics, a kinetics model was developed to serve as the basis for quick and effective determination of micronization quality and efficiency. In this paper, the results of grinding in a Retsch ZM-1 ultra-centrifugal mill were analyzed in order to optimize and automate the process of ultrafine micronization.

AB  - Due to pozzolanic characteristics, fly ash is commonly used as a cement replacement in construction composites. Addition of natural clays with sorption ability (i.e. zeolite and bentonite) in to the fly ash based construction materials is of both scientific and industrial interest. Namely, due to the application of sorptive clay minerals, it is possible to immobilize toxic heavy metals from the composite structure. The thermal compatibility of fly ash and zeolite, as well as fly ash and bentonite, within the composite was observed during sintering procedure. The starting components were used in 1: 1 ratio and they were applied without additional mechanical treatment. The used compaction pressure for the tablets was 2 t.cm(-2). The sintering process was conducted at 1000 degrees C and 1200 degrees C for two hours in the air atmosphere. The mineralogical phase composition of the non-treated and sintered samples was analyzed using X-ray diffraction method. Scanning electron microscopy was applied in the analysis of the microstructure of starting and sintered samples. The thermal behavior was observed via DTA method. The influence of temperature on the properties of fly ash-zeolite and fly ash-bentonite composites was investigated.

AB  - The limestone, as an economically sustainable and easily available basic raw material, is frequently utilized in the building industry for resolving of the environmental protection issues. The limestone is incorporated in a cementitious system either by grinding with cement clinker, or by blending with the binder during concrete production. The employing of powdery limestone as partial cement replacement gives the construction composites with properties comparable to that of conventional concrete. The study of limestone thermal behavior and its chemistry is crucial for the prognosis of the designed composites properties. In this work, the instrumental techniques (atomic emission spectroscopy, differential thermal and thermo-gravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) and the Principal component analysis were employed to discriminate and classify 22 limestone types. The PCA statistical method, as a means of spectra and experimental data fingerprinting, grouped the samples in a multi-dimensional factor space producing four graphical prognosis - one for each instrumental method. DTA/TG peak values varied the most in a short range between 830-870 degrees C, while FTIR spectra showed the highest diversity in the 867-887 cm(-1) and 1237-1647 cm(-1) ranges. This research was governed by an idea to reveal whether it is possible to differentiate various limestone types and to predict the possibility of their employment in construction composites on the basis of the results of instrumental and mathematical analyses.

AB  - Talc is broadly used in the ceramic materials industry, either as a basic raw material, or as filler, due to its chemical inertia, fragmentation proneness, thermal stability, and refractoriness. The mechanical activation is frequently employed in the direct enhancement of talc properties, and thereby in the design of talc based composites with advanced performances. The differences in the set of the process parameters measured before and after talc activation via ultra-centrifugal mill Retsch ZM-1, and their influence on the grain-size distribution related characteristics have been investigated. The mechanical treatments are energetically unsustainable procedures, therefore the talc activation was optimized on basis of assessment of the process variables (number of rotor revolutions, current intensity, activation period, circumferential rotor speed and mill capacity) effect on the final quality of product parameters (mesh sizes, cumulative oversizes, average grain size, level of micronization kinetics, mesh size appropriate to 95% micronized product cumulative undersize and specific surface area). The activated product parameters in all experimental sequences were obtained by the analytical procedure based on Rosin-Rammler-Sperling equation. Response surface method, standard score analysis and principal component analysis were used as a means of the optimization. Developed models showed r(2) values in the range of 0.714-0.908 and they were able to accurately predict quality parameters in a wide range of process parameters. Standard score analysis highlighted that the optimal sample was obtained using sieve mesh of 120 mu m set of processing parameters (SS = 1.0). Multiple comparison tests revealed that the optimal variation in the processing parameters could reduce the negative effect of talc samples inherent properties on the final score and improve the activation procedure energetic and economic sustainability.

AB  - In this study, the feasibility of using fly ash to manufacture high-temperature mortars was investigated. The investigation was set to define preliminary characteristics of new types of mortars based on ordinary and/or refractory cement with fly ash addition, and to establish mutual correlation between thermally induced changes of mineral phases, microstructure, and final performances of the mortars. New mortars, made up of 21% cement (PC-CEM I 42.5R/HAC-Secar 70/71), 70% river sand, and 9% fly ash, were chemically, physically, and mechanically characterized to determine possibilities of fly ash re-utilization for high-temperature purposes. The fly ash samples, which originated from four different power plants, were mechanically activated. Mortars were heat-treated up to 1300 degrees C in a laboratory tunnel furnace with retention time 2 h. Thermal stability of crystalline phases were studied by differential thermal analysis (DTA); thermally induced changes in mineral phase composition were analyzed by XRD; and microstructure were investigated by scanning electron microscopy. Correlated results of DTA, XRD, and SEM analyses indicated initiation of sintering processes at approximately 1300 degrees C and formation of thermally stable minerals (rankinite, gehlenite, anorthite, cristobalite). The investigation highlights a sustainable approach of using fly ash in developing ecofriendly mortars for high-temperature application.

AB  - The surface topography analysis via fractals as a means of explanation of composite materials mechanical and microstructural characteristics has hardly been reported so far. This study proposes a method of fractal analysis and its application to refractory bauxite concrete surface tribological investigation. Fractal dimension, profilegrams and fast Fourier transform method are introduced and supported by the adequate software for analysing contours and surface roughness, depending on the observation scale and also numerically depending on horizontal lines intercepted by the investigated profile. Also, the Richardson method and Kaye modification are applied to distinguish textured and structured aspect of grain contour geometry. Microstructural investigation was carried out using a scanning electron microscope. Using the fractals of the grains contact surfaces, a reconstruction of microstructure configuration, as grains shapes or inter-granular contacts, has been performed. Obtained results indicated that fractal analyses of contact surfaces of different shapes were very important for the prognosis of the concrete behaviour. The novel approach to the investigation of refractory concrete properties was successfully conducted, as a result introducing fractal identification as a means of composite materials performances evaluation.

AB  - The effect of the application of pelletized fly ash based aggregates obtained through different processing techniques on the behavior of lightweight concretes was analyzed. Experimental program implied production of four lightweight artificial aggregates-cold bonded and sintered pellets based on either mechanically activated or non-activated low-calcium fly ash and water glass. The lightweight concrete behavior was compared to that of normal-weight concrete through compressive strength, flexural strength, porosity, shrinkage, and modulus of elasticity investigation. Differences in concretes characteristics were discussed with SEM imagining support. The statistical analysis of lightweight aggregate and ash properties contribution on concrete performances was realized by analysis variance model (ANOVA). Optimal production combination that maximizes lightweight concrete performance was determined by employing response surface methodology. An increase in concrete strength induced by the increase in ash fineness was noticed. Mechanical activation also had effect on the pellets sintering period and sintering temperature reduction. The 28- and 56-day lightweight concrete specimens exhibited properties that met the requirements for normal-weight concretes. Finally, the ideal combinations of ash pellets production parameters and properties that gave the lightweight concrete with behavior matching to that of standard concrete were established. The production capability of lightweight concrete with advanced performances based on artificial aggregate approves the principle of waste material reusing and enables cleaner and economically sustainable concrete manufacturing procedure.

abstract = "The effect of the application of pelletized fly ash based aggregates obtained through different processing techniques on the behavior of lightweight concretes was analyzed. Experimental program implied production of four lightweight artificial aggregates-cold bonded and sintered pellets based on either mechanically activated or non-activated low-calcium fly ash and water glass. The lightweight concrete behavior was compared to that of normal-weight concrete through compressive strength, flexural strength, porosity, shrinkage, and modulus of elasticity investigation. Differences in concretes characteristics were discussed with SEM imagining support. The statistical analysis of lightweight aggregate and ash properties contribution on concrete performances was realized by analysis variance model (ANOVA). Optimal production combination that maximizes lightweight concrete performance was determined by employing response surface methodology. An increase in concrete strength induced by the increase in ash fineness was noticed. Mechanical activation also had effect on the pellets sintering period and sintering temperature reduction. The 28- and 56-day lightweight concrete specimens exhibited properties that met the requirements for normal-weight concretes. Finally, the ideal combinations of ash pellets production parameters and properties that gave the lightweight concrete with behavior matching to that of standard concrete were established. The production capability of lightweight concrete with advanced performances based on artificial aggregate approves the principle of waste material reusing and enables cleaner and economically sustainable concrete manufacturing procedure.",

AB  - The effects that the fly ash addition has on the behavior of thermally resistant corundum concrete were discussed. Experimental program implied production of two refractory composites: "referent" concrete from 20 % of high-aluminate cement and 80 % of corundum aggregate, "recycled" concrete from 10 % of high-aluminate cement, 20 % of lignite coal ash, and 70 % of corundum aggregate. The fly ash was mechanically activated by a vibratory disk mill. In the concrete matrix, the ash had a role of cement partial replacement and microfiller. The mechanical and thermal properties of the concretes were studied at temperatures ranging from ambient to 1,400 A degrees C as adopted maximum. Mechanisms of thermally induced processes were observed by differential thermal analysis at 10, 20, and 30 A degrees C min(-1) heating rates. Referent and recycled concretes showed differences in calculated activation energies. The variations in refractory concretes performances were discussed with support of scanning electron microscope imagining and X-ray diffraction results. The recycled ash concrete exhibited properties that met the requirements for the castables, which proves it suitable for use in severe conditions at high temperature and highlights the reusing principle and possibility of cleaner and economically sustainable production.

AB  - This study presents the results of an investigation of high-temperature materials refractory coatings based on different refractory fillers including talc, cordierite, zircon and mullite applied in the lost-foam casting process. Design and optimization of a coating composition with controlled rheological properties and synthesis were achieved by applying different coating components, suspension agents and fillers and by altering the coating-production procedure. A morphological and microstructural analysis of the fillers was carried out with scanning electron microscopy. An X-ray diffraction analysis was applied to determine and monitor the phase-composition changes of the refractory fillers. The particle size and shape were assessed with the PC software application package OZARIA 2.5. To assess the effects of the applications of individual refractory coatings, a detailed investigation of the structural and mechanical properties of the mouldings obtained was performed. Highlight was placed on revealing and analyzing surface and volume defects present on the mouldings. Radiographic moulding tests were carried out with an X-ray device, SAIFORT type-S200. The attained results are essential for the synthesis of the refractory coatings based on high-temperature fillers and their applications in the lost-foam casting process for manufacturing the mouldings with in-advance-set properties.

AB  - The differences in the set of the process parameters measured before and after mica mechanical activation and their influence on the grain size distribution related characteristics have been studied. The modification of the behavior for activated samples has been correlated to the particle size distribution effect produced by activation via an ultra centrifugal mill. The mechanical treatments are energetically and economically unsustainable procedures, therefore the mica activation was optimized on basis of assessment of the process variables effect on the final quality of product parameters. Response surface method, standard score analysis and principal component analysis were used as means of the optimization. Developed models showed r(2) values in the range of 0.816-0.988 and they were able to accurately, predict quality parameters in a wide range of processing parameters. Standard score analysis highlighted that the optimal sample was obtained using sieve mesh of 80 mu m set of processing parameters (SS=0.81). Multiple comparison tests revealed that the optimal variation in the processing parameters could reduce the negative effect of mica samples inherent properties on the final score and improve activation procedure energetic and economic sustainability.

AB  - The impact of the mechanical processing parameters on the alumina grain-size distribution affiliated characteristics and on the gamma to alpha phase transformation rate was investigated. The moderation in the alumina samples behavior has been correlated to the granulometric and mineralogical changes induced by activation via an ultra-centrifugal mill. The assessment of the activation process variables influence on the final quality of the product parameters was conveyed in order to optimize the mechanical treatment of the alumina, which otherwise could be regarded as either energetically or economically unsustainable procedure. The Response Surface Method, Standard Score Analysis and Principal Component Analysis were applied as means of the mechanical activation optimization. The r(2) values obtained by developed models were in range from 0.816 to 0.988. The established mathematical models were able to precisely predict the quality parameters in a broad range of processing parameters. The Standard Score Analysis emphasized that the optimal output sample was obtained using a sieve mesh of 120 mu m set of processing parameters (SS=0.96). Diverse comparison analyses disclosed that the optimal set of activation process parameters could reduce the negative effect of gamma-alumina samples immanent properties on the final score, and furthermore to enhance the rate of gamma to alpha transition which would improve energetic and economic sustainability of the alumina phase transformation procedure.

AB  - The aim of this investigation was to establish the optimal processing parameters of the comminuted phosphate grain mixture mechanical treatment by monitoring and evaluating the activated product characteristics. An ultra-centrifugal mill with a peripheral comminuting path was used as activator in the experiment. A mathematical model based on the theoretical principles of the grain mixture mechanical processing was applied in order to characterize the phosphate activation procedure. As the energy conversion that takes place by the interaction mill-material during activation is recorded on the processed phosphate grains, the increase in potential energy of the activated grains was measured by means of an automatic grain counter. Following the operating hypothesis of the automatic grain counter, the energy conversion and the properties of phosphate grains induced by mechanical force were monitored and expressed in the form of the grain inertia change. The phosphate ore grain mixture used in the experiment was thoroughly analyzed, particularly in its activated state. Analytically obtained results were supported by X-ray diffraction analysis for identification of crystalline phases and change in crystallinity, and SEM microphotography of initial and activated phosphate grains. Diverse comparison analyses disclosed that the optimal set of activation process parameters could reduce the negative effect of phosphate sample immanent properties on the final score and furthermore enhance the material reactivity.

AB  - The aim of investigation was to find sustainable solution for coal fly ash reapplication by increasing its reactivity through mechano-activation. For obtaining complete insight into activation process an understanding of theoretical principles of activator operation is necessary. The vibratory mill was used in experiments. The characteristics of activated ash and possibility of grain inertia measurement by automatic grain counter were analyzed. Following proposed AGC operating hypothesis, energy and properties of ash grains induced by mechanical force were expressed as grain inertia change. The ash used in experiment was thoroughly analyzed by XRD and SEM methods. The final result was establishing of the upper limit of activation period.
