Currently fillers for antibacterial layers in hygienic operations are mainly primary raw materials, whose properties are verified and well-known due to their long-term use. However, the use of proper secondary raw materials appears to be a good option from an environmental and economic point of view. This work assesses the possible adverse effects of specially treated secondary raw materials in relation to antibacterial properties, chemical resistance and Shore hardness of the antibacterial coating on an epoxy base (AC-E) providing no physiological damage. This coating reliably eliminates the widest possible range of bacteria and yeasts, has sustained effectiveness, consistent functionality over time, provides permanent protection and is suitable for use in healthcare facilities and food processing plants. Two kinds of transparent waste glass (NaSX, VLG) and two types of waste foundry sand (FSC, FSB) were tested, and all fillers were treated so that particle size was below 0.063 mm, including the reference filler (Dorsilit sand). On the basis of antibacterial resistance tests, Shore hardness and chemical resistance, it was assessed that the tested fillers may be effectively used for antibacterial coatings while maintaining the properties of the reference coating. Within the rapid testing of chemical resistance, the surface microstructure of the antibacterial coating was also examined after long-term exposure to aggressive organic and inorganic liquid media. When adding 30% and 35% of the selected waste fillers, the hardness and chemical resistance of the cured coating did not change. The treated waste fillers tested had no negative impact on the antibacterial properties of the coating and were judged to be appropriate fillers in place of Dorsilit silica sand or glass flakes.

Abstract This paper deals with the research of a new silicate-based repair mortar modified with selected secondary raw materials. The aim of this work is to develop a chemically resistant material suitable for use in an extremely aggressive environment of sewers. The monitored parameters include key physical-mechanical characteristics, resistance to sulphate ions and to the attack of aggressive biogenic sulfuric acid. Chemical resistance was tested by simulating the exposure environment in laboratory conditions, according to the methodology of DIN 19573. The obtained results show that by suitable modification of the reference mortar it is possible to maintain the values of physical-mechanical characteristics and improve the chemical resistance of test samples.

This paper studies the fundamental research and development of sprayed cement-based mixture designed to withstand the chemically aggressive conditions. The aim of this paper is to verify the possibilities of usage of suitable secondary raw materials as a substitution of a binder and filler of the original mixture while preserving or improving the physical-mechanical properties. In this part of the research was studied the possibility to substitute the binder in rate of 20-60 wt.% by high temperature fly ash and the whole filler by foundry sand and slag. Test samples were made from nine recipes, in which was monitored the influence of secondary raw materials on the compressive strength and the water absorption after 28 days of curing. The results of this paper show, it is possible to successfully substitute part of the binder by high temperature fly ash and the filler wholly by foundry sand in the sprayed mixture. These optimized recipes showed positive influence mainly in the long-term on mechanical properties.

Epoxy coatings are used mainly in the construction especially where it is necessary to increase the resistance of concrete floors against mechanical wear, to increase chemical resistance, to prevent dusting and to ensure hygienically clean environment. Epoxy coating is a composite material that consists of epoxy resin cured mainly by polyamine hardener and filler. As a filler is currently used pure silica sand Dorsilit ground to below 0.063 mm and for more demanding applications fine glass flakes with a high proportion of SiO2. The aim of this work is to experimentally examine the possibility of using secondary raw materials as fillers into three types of polymer epoxy coatings, where it seems the most appropriate utilization is waste glass with a high content of SiO2. Based on the evaluation of the test results of tensile properties, Shore hardness and temperature resistance the possibility of replacing the commonly used filler by finely ground waste glass is assessed.

This paper addresses optimization of mix-design and granulometric curves of aggregate of chemically resistant cementitious sprayed mix. The target of the paper is to improve properties of currently developed mix-design, which has no chemical resistance, and to utilize the secondary raw materials. The mix was optimized by additions improving chemical resistance and binder substituted by secondary raw materials. The binder was substituted by finely ground waste glass and high-temperature fly ash. Filler was substituted with slag from deposit yard and waste sand with soluble glass from steel manufacture. Main observed properties for design of optimized mix were workability time, consistence and physical-mechanical properties. Optimized mix-design successfully replaced all fine parts of filler and up to 30% of binder while the physical-mechanical properties were preserved or even enhanced. Optimized mix-designs show the same consistencies and workability times.

Experimental study on the use of basalt stone originated from Lampung has been conducted to evaluate its potential for a partial substitute of raw material in production of cement clinker. The basalt stone contains minerals of anorthite, augite, and albite phases that are required for clinker formation. In this study, the main raw materials were 80% limestone, 10% silica sand, 9% clay and 1% iron sand. The raw material in these experiments were mixtures 90% or 80% of the main raw material and 10% or 20% of basalt stone. The effect of adding coal to raw materials was also studied to see the possibility of an increase in clinkerization temperature inside the raw material mixture, and at the same time to see the effect of coal ash on clinker composition. Clinker obtained from heating of raw materials at a temperature of 1100oC had LSF of 94.1% and 95.1% (heating time of 1 and 3 hours). If heating is carried out at 1200oC, the clinker had LSF of 97.7% and 98.0% (heating time of 2 and 3 hours, respectively). Depending on the temperature and duration of heating, the clinker mostly had SM in the range of 2.18-2.40% , and AM in the range of 0,78-1.80%. Characterization using XRD showed that the clinker consisted of larnite and gehlenite phases, and dominated by CaO.Batu basalt Lampung telah diuji potensinya sebagai pengganti sebagian bahan baku utama pembuatan klinker semen.
