Experimental investigation and modelling of the behaviour of trace elements in the cement clinker process [In German]
Research results, AiF research project no. 13230 N
Research report: Use of X-ray fluorescence analysis to determine trace element contents in cements [in German]
Research findings: Sulphate resistance of ternary cements containing clinker and combinations of granulated blast furnace slag, calcined clay and limestone [In German]
Results (German): Assessment of Portland cement clinker by means of microscopic and mineralogical analysis methods for the evaluation of the clinker burning process
The aim of the project was to investigate the suitability of the Ono method for evaluation of burning conditions even on clinker burnt with alternative fuels. Furthermore the focus of the project was the development of a methodology for correlations between microscopically and mineralogically analysed clinker properties and burning conditions.
Results (German): Interactions between cements with several main constituents and methyl cellulose and their performance in dry mortarderen Leistungsfähigkeit in modernen, mineralischen Trockenmörteln
Interactions between different structured or modified methyl hydroxyethyl celluloses and cements blended with limestone, blastfurnace slag or fly ash were determined.
Results (German): Analysis concept for the determination of trace elements in the eluate of cement-bound building materials (IGF No. 16989 N)
The aim of the AiF research project was to identify the causes of the sometimes greater scatter rates in the analysis results in the case of comparison trials for the long-term tank test.
Results (German): Investigations on the suitability of dolomitic carbonate rocks as cement main constituent
The aim of the research project was to investigate the suitability or usefulness of dolomitic carbonate rocks as a main cement constituent and to define requirements for dolomitic carbonate rocks as required for the production of high-performance dolomitic cements and concretes of high durability.
