Comprehensive approach to the influence of frequently used secondary raw materials on clay bricks quality using mathematical modeling (a systematic review)
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
The main idea of this research was to evaluate rice and sunflower hulls, sawdust and their ashes, as additives in clay brick production using mathematical analysis. All available papers, containing the parameters of interest, ...
Comparative kinetic study of mechanical activation process of mica and talc for industrial application
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Mica and talc have wide areas of application as a raw material in a number of industrial branches. Mechanically activated mica has specific applications such as: capacitors, insulators, and pearlescent pigments. Talc is ...
Influence of different bonding and fluxing agents on the sintering behavior and dielectric properties of steatite ceramic materials
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
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 ...
Study on the addition effect of metakaolin and mechanically activated kaolin on cement strength and microstructure under different curing conditions
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The effects of thermally (MK) or mechanically activated kaolin (AK) on the compressive strength of mortars and microstructure of pastes were investigated. Mortar mixtures, in which 10%, 20% and 30% of ordinary Portland ...
