Summary
A composition was developed for aluminosilicate concrete with a water-glass bond with a density of 1.25–1.30 g/cm3 and with a setting accelerator-Portland cement.
By reducing the density of the glass and eliminating the addition of sodium silicofluoride, the RUL is increased by 300° C compared with ordinary concrete used at present. The concrete possesses a high strength over the entire temperature range, a high abrasion resistance and excellent spalling resistance.
The technical properties of the fireclay concrete suggest that this material can be used at up to 1300° C, and the aluminous at up to 1450° C in place of piece aluminosilicate goods.
To solve the problem of the reliable and mass use of the recommended concretes in heat exchangers and in other parts of rotary cement furnaces it is necessary to carry out extra tests with the concretes on a bigger scale.
