A refractory includes a cement, a binder and a matrix. The matrix comprises both stainless steel fibers and organic fibers. The refractory can be easily cast, without additional steel reinforcement, into large fire wall 16 panels 10 capable of meeting the requirements of testing conducted in accordance with ASTM E-119, Standard Test Methods for Fire Tests of Building Construction and Materials in support of IEEE Std. 979-1994, Guide for Substation Fire Protection. The fire wall 16 assembly withstood the fire endurance test without passage of flame and gases hot enough to ignite cotton waste during a four-hour fire exposure. The assembly also withstood a 45? water stream for five minutes immediately following the four-hour fire exposure period. This is a stringent mechanical requirement, as all fire walls 16 must maintain their integrity before, during and after a fire, per the Universal Building Code=s definition of a true fire wall 16.
摘要:
Provided is a protective concrete for weaken the intensity of proton radiation, and it is prepared by mixing 525# cement 500-700 Kg; barite sand 1000-1400 kg, barite stone 1500-1800 Kg, lead powder 180-200 Kg and water 170-180 Kg. The barite that can absorb the proton radiation is used, so the present concrete is much better than conventional concretes in weakening the proton radiation, and 1.5 m-thick wall without lead plates which is prepared with the present concrete can achieve the same effect on weakening the proton radiation with a conventional 2 m-thick wall covering with lead plates.

According to various embodiments, gas-generating additives for use in a cement composition comprise: a gas-generating material at least partially coated with a mixture comprising a fatty acid ester of sorbitan, glycerol, or pentaerythritol and having a shelf life of about 12 months or greater. The gas-generating additives may also include a C8-C18 hydrocarbon. In more embodiments, cement compositions comprise: a gas-generating material at least partially coated with a mixture comprising a fatty acid ester of sorbitan, glycerol, or pentaerythritol and a C8-C18 hydrocarbon for increasing a shelf life of the gas-generating material. In yet more embodiments, cement compositions comprise: a cement; a fluid for making the cement composition pumpable; a hydrogen-generating material at least partially coated with a mixture for delaying a hydrogen-generating reaction, the mixture comprising sorbitan monooleate and an isoparaffin.

A method for the integrated production of casts and mortars on the basis of hydraulic binders and in gravel substitute. In a first step, slag is subdivided into a first and a second fraction having different average grain sizes. The first fraction having a larger average grain size is size-reduced and returned to the slag, and the iron-containing components and optionally plastics and paper are removed from the second fraction having a smaller average grain size. In a second step, the second fraction is subdivided into superfines and gravel, the superfines being used, after optionally removing non-iron metals, for producing hydraulic binders. In a third step, the hydraulic binders are used with superfines and tectosilicates for producing casts and mortars, and with gravel to produce a gravel substitute.
摘要:
The present invention provides methods for resisting corrosion of metal elements in concrete, and associated compounds and structures. Acid mine drainage sludge is used as a source of a precursor compound that reacts with a source of anion to form a chloride-sequestering compound. The precursor compound may have the formula 2Me′(II)O·(Y(2−x),Y′x)O3+qMe′(II)O, where at least one of Y and Y′ is present; Y and Y′ are different and are independently selected from the group consisting of Al, Fe, Cr, and not present; Me′ is a cation and is selected from the group consisting of Ca, Ba, Sr, Mn, and Zn; x is a number ranging from 0 to 2; and q is a number ranging from 0 to 2; and combinations thereof. In a preferred embodiment, the precursor compound has the formula 2CaO(Fe(2−x),Alx)O3+CaO.
摘要:
A monolithic refractory composition, which can be rapidly dried after being mixed with water and applied to a desired portion by casting or spraying to form a furnace wall, and which comprises refractory aggregates, a refractory powder, an aluminum alloy powder and a dispersant, wherein the aluminum alloy powder is contained in an amount of from 0.04 to 5 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the total amount of the refractory aggregates and the refractory powder.
摘要:
Methods and systems for readily and economically manufacturing hydraulically settable articles, particularly containers, from microstructurally engineered hydraulically settable mixtures. The mixture is pressed between a male die of a desired shape and a female die having a substantially complimentary configuration of the male die shape to immediately fashion a portion of the mixture into a form stable shape for the desired article. To assist in imparting form stability, the dies can be heated or cooled. Once the article has obtained form stability, the article is removed from the dies and dried under heated air to gain strength. The article can then receive printing or a coating, if desired, prior to packaging, shipping, and use.
