Opis

Special inorganic cements need to be used instead of standard Portland cement in certain specialist applications, such as oil well drilling or in a high temperature location. In other cases they might allow for lower production costs or a reduction in enviromental damage. The book draws together information which is widely scattered in the technical literature. The various special cements are described, and their chemistry and mineralogy is outlined along with the appropriate manufacturing processes, their hydration and hydration properties, and their applications. The cements covered are special Portland-type cements, belitic and sulfo-belitic cements, alinite cements, calcium aluminate cements, sulfo-aluminate cements, phosphate cements, alkali-silicate cements, special blended cements, geopolymers and selected inorganic-organic binders such as MDF cements.
