Use of natural and thermally activated porphyrite in cement production
چکیده انگلیسی
The aim of the present study was to investigate the use of porphyrite in the production of Portland cement. Natural and thermally activated porphyrites were used as a clay raw material and an activator, respectively, at 0, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 wt% in order to assess their effects on the cement properties. According to the test results, the compressive strength of the specimens decreased with increasing natural porphyrite content in various curing periods. However, the compressive strength of cement produced with 10 wt% porphyrite (activator) activated at 650 °C for 30 min showed a higher value (56 MPa in TPC-6) than cement without activator (51 MPa in RPC-2). Due to thermal activation, porphyrite activator containing a glass phase possesses an enhanced reactivity during clinker hydration that intensifies the synthesis of hydrosilicates and improves compressive strength accordingly. The X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed an intensive formation of Portland cement minerals such as C3S, β-C2S, C3A and C4AF. The addition of thermally activated porphyrite has also led to an improvement of the rheological behavior, stability to expansion, increase in setting time and decrease in specific surface area of cement. As prepared cement composites and concretes with improved properties meet the requirements of State Standards 310-86 and 10181-81 for Portland cement and concrete, respectively. The findings in this report indicate that porphyrite can be utilized both as a raw material and an activator in the production of cement.
