The use of nanotechnogenic high-alumina (Al2O3 > 70 %) raw materials of petrochemical production ― the spent IM2201 catalyst in the production of acid-resistant materials based on unenriched kaolin clay makes it possible to obtain products with high physical, mechanical and chemical parameters in the range of firing temperatures of 1250‒1300 o C. Nanotechnogenic raw materials contribute to an increase in surface energy, which is the source of the sintering process. Studies have shown that in compositions based on unenriched kaolin clay and chamotte from it, which do not contain nanotechnogenic high-alumina raw materials, mainly mullite is formed, which mainly forms the operational properties of ceramic products. X-ray diffractometric analysis showed that the introduction of nanotechnogenic high-alumina raw materials into the compositions of ceramic masses contributes to the formation of corundum. IR spectroscopic analysis confirmed the data of X-ray studies. Corundum is characterized by high chemical resistance to acidic and alkaline reagents and gives acid-resistant materials high physical and mechanical properties. Ill. 4. Ref. 33. Tab. 5.

In this study, a variety of industrial solid wastes, including petroleum coke desulfurization slag, fly ash and carbide slag with natural resource bauxite, were used as raw materials to prepare high belite suphoaluminate cement, which contains a certain CaSO4 content without adding natural gypsum to the clinker. The sintering temperature, mineral composition, and the physical and mechanical properties of the cement clinkers were investigated. The techniques adopted included a comprehensive thermal analysis (DSC-TG), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results revealed that it is completely feasible to prepare high belite sulphoaluminate cement with the various industrial solid wastes mentioned above and the utilization rate of the solid wastes is up to 80%. The sintering temperature ranges from 1225 °C to 1350 °C, and the optimal sintering temperature is approximately 1300 °C. The clinkers prepared at 1300 °C set and harden quickly and have a slightly higher water requirement of normal consistency. The mechanical strength is greatly affected by the CaSO4 and 3CaO·3Al2O3·CaSO4 contents and the most reasonable CaSO4 content is 15%.

This article presents the results of experimental studies aimed at improving the physicomechanical properties of effective hollow ceramic stones using various technological methods that will disperse, homogenize and structure the ceramic mixture by introducing industrial waste with high alumina content, dispersed reinforcement, and also mechanical activation of the molding material, accompanied by the fragmentation of clay particles to a colloidal degree of dispersion, allows eliminating the aging process. The main molding characteristics of the investigated mixtures were determined, X-ray phase analysis of ceramic masses and a shard of the control composition was performed and after dispersion, activation modes were worked out, strength characteristics of ceramic samples made of dispersed clay raw materials were determined.

The microstructure of a 1050oC fired clay ceramic added with both argillite and discarded ceramic waste, known as grog, was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The objective was to evaluate not only the developed crystallographic phases but also the ceramic sintering conditions associated with the grog and argillite additions. The XRD results showed the presence of quartz and feldspar existing in the raw materials as well as hematite and mullite transformed at high temperature from the precursor clays. The SEM analysis revealed a consolidated ceramic structure in which the sintering process was effective in reducing the initial space between particles and thus improving the structural compactness.

The physical and mechanical properties of clay-based ceramic probes with sedimentary rock added as the non-plastic component were evaluated. Samples were prepared with 0, 20, 40, 60 and 80 wt.% of rock added to the clay material. Pressed (7 ton) probes were sintered at 500, 800, 900, 1000, 1100 and 1200 °C and submitted to X-ray diffraction analysis and technological characterization. The X-ray diffraction results showed that the sedimentary rock had micaceous clay minerals, while the clay material had kaolinite as the main phases. Thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction showed reactions that indicated transformation (inversion of quartz), decomposition (loss of hydroxides) and phase formation (mullite) during heat treatment of the samples. The technological tests showed that the addition of sedimentary rock improved some properties of the sintered material, aided by the presence of fluxes. However, the presence of quartz in the rock hampered the formation of the mullite phase. The formation of new phases and transformations occurring during the heating and cooling of the samples helped explain the technological properties of ceramic materials.

The presented study is focused on optimization and characterization of a high-alumina refractory aggregate based on natural raw materials—kaolins, claystone, and mullite dust by-product (used to increase the alumina and mullite contents, respectively). In total, four individual formulas with the Al2O3 contents between 45 and 50 wt.% were designed; the samples were subsequently fired, both in a laboratory oven and an industrial tunnel furnace. The effects of repeated firing were examined during industrial pilot tests. Mineral and chemical compositions and microstructures, of both the raw materials and designed aggregates, were thoroughly investigated by the means of X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, and optical and scanning electron microscopies. Porosity, mineral composition, and mullite crystal-size development during the firing process were also studied. Based on the acquired results, the formula with the perspective to be used as a new mullite grog, featuring similar properties as the available commercial products, however, with reduced production expenses, was selected. The quality of grog determines to a large extent the properties of the final product. Hence, optimization of aggregates for specific refractories is of a great importance. The production of engineered aggregates provides the opportunity to utilize industrial by-products.

The paper investigates the peculiarities of the chemical and mineralogical compositions of semi-flint kaolins and their behavior under heating up to 1500 °C. It was found that the sintering process of kaolin clay raw materials depends on the temperature of their preliminary calcining, method of milling after the thermal treatment and application of mineralizing additives. In the case of Borovichy kaolin, preliminary calcining at 850 °C and 980 °C and its subsequent milling increase the material strength after sintering calcining at the temperature of 1400–1450 °C at the expense of uniform sintering and the formation of a homogeneous microstructure of sintered material.

The paper analyzes the Russian and foreign research into the use of nonstandard raw materials in the production of constructional anorthite ceramics. The raw materials with different chemical composition are investigated. It is shown that the use of nonstandard raw materials in the ceramic mixture makes it possible to obtain constructional products with 43.1 MPa compressive strength, 2150 kg/m3 density, about 7 % water absorption and frost resistance that meets the requirements of regulatory documents. The physical and mechanical properties are obtained due to the anorthite phase containing in the composition of end ceramic products, which is confirmed by the X-ray phase and microscopic analyses.
