Utilization of water glass as an activator in the manufacturing of cementitious materials from waste by-products

1987

Abstract In the present paper, the possibility of producing new-type cementless building materials is discussed when water glass as an activating agent is used. The experimental data are presented for a set of raw materials which normally do not show any binding ability. However, if they undergo some physico-chemical treatment and water glass is used, a solid structure of the material is formed. According to the method described here, lots of different mineral waste by-products could be activated, thus gaining binding properties.

On melting of two-dimensional monolayer films

1996

The melting of two-dimensional films formed on the (100) fcc crystal is studied by Monte Carlo simulation. The results obtained suggest that in systems with only weakly corrugated surface potential, exhibiting the hexagonal close packed solid structure, the melting transition is followed by the lsing-like transition as predicted by the theory of Nelson and Halperin. In the case of highly corrugated surface potential, the film forms registered structure which disorders gradually as the temperature is raised.
