Compressive strength and microstructure of ordinary cured and autoclaved cement-based composites with mechanically activated kaolins
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
The effects of two different mechanically activated kaolins, AKV (61% kaolinite, 14% quartz and 16% mica) and AKG (51.6% kaolinite and 40.6% quartz) on the compressive strength of cement composites and microstructure of ...
Effects of mechanical activation on the parameters of talc quality for ceramics production - Chemometric approach
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
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 ...
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 ...
Chemometric assessment of mechano-chemically activated zeolites for application in the construction composites
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
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 ...
The influence of nano-silica and barite aggregate on properties of ultra high performance concrete
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
The development of building materials with improved characteristics and their application for increasing structure durability and sustainability is one of the goals in construction sector. The main objective of this paper ...
Effects of mechanical-activation and TiO2 addition on the behavior of two-step sintered steatite ceramics
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
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 ...
Optimization of bentonite clay mechano-chemical activation using artificial neural network modeling
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
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 ...
