Aluminate Cement

Aluminate cement is a refractory cement, which has many names: refractory cement, 625 cement, high alumina cement, CA-50 cement, etc. It has a wide range of applications. In many refractory concretes, aluminate cement is an indispensable refractory binder.

Aluminate cement is a special cement with weak alkaline calcium aluminate as the main component. It is a hydraulic cementitious material made of bauxite and limestone as raw materials, calcined and made of clinker with calcium aluminate as the main component and about 50% alumina content.

The use temperature of aluminate cement can reach 1350℃. If it is mixed with high-alumina aggregate and other refractory materials in proportion to form a refractory castable, the refractory temperature can reach 1700℃.

Aluminate cement can be divided into CA-50 and CA-70 (also called calcium aluminate cement, white) according to the aluminum content. It is a hydraulic cementitious material with fast hardening, early strength, corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance. Aluminate cement is yellow-brown or gray and is widely used in metallurgy, machinery, building materials, petrochemicals, electricity, food and other industries.

Introduction to the uses of aluminate cement

  1. Used to prepare refractory castables and kiln linings.
  2. Suitable for projects that resist sulfate erosion.
  3. Suitable for concrete projects that require rapid hardening and emergency repair projects.
  4. Suitable for winter construction and special projects that require early strength.
  5. Used as raw material for making water purifiers (calcium aluminate powder).
  6. Used as the best raw material for making decorative materials (such as artificial marble, colored road tiles, colored corrugated tiles, etc.).
  7. It is an important component for preparing expansive cement, self-stressed cement and other special cements.

Aluminate Refractory Castables

Aluminate Refractory Castables are an important amorphous refractory material, widely used in industrial kilns such as metallurgy, building materials, petrochemicals, and electric power. It consists of refractory aggregate, powder and binder (such as aluminate cement), which is mixed by adding water or other liquids and has good construction performance and high temperature performance.

Aluminate Refractory Castables Aluminate cement is the key binder in aluminate refractory castables. The type and amount of aluminate cement have a significant effect on the performance of the castable. For example, an increase in the amount of CA-50 cement will increase the compressive strength at room temperature, but the compressive strength will decrease after burning at 1200℃, the refractoriness and load softening temperature will also decrease, and the linear shrinkage after burning will also increase. When preparing aluminate refractory castables, in addition to the amount of cement, the amount of water is also a key factor. An increase in the amount of water will lead to a decrease in performance, so the amount of water in the mixture should be minimized to ensure construction and workability. The selection of refractory powder and aggregate will also have an important impact on the performance of castables. Refractory powder can improve the refractory performance of castables, while the type, grade, maximum particle size and particle grading of aggregates are the main factors affecting the performance.

The use of aluminate castable admixtures is also an important means to improve the performance of aluminate refractory castables. Water reducers can improve the fluidity of castables and reduce water consumption, and coagulants and retarders can adjust the setting time of castables. Sintering agents and expansion agents can improve the medium-temperature strength of castables and compensate for shrinkage at high temperatures.

Effect of Barite Powder on the Strength of High Alumina Cement – High Temperature Cement

KilnRefractory

High alumina cement, also known as aluminate cement, has the advantages of high early strength, high-temperature resistance, and strong resistance to sulfate corrosion. In recent years, due to the rapid growth of the early strength of high alumina cement, early de-moulding, and tight construction schedules, the number of projects using high alumina cement to prepare concrete has continued to increase. However, the later strength of high alumina cement is unstable, and there is great controversy about its application in engineering. Studies have shown that the use of ultrafine powder as a mixture of high alumina cement can improve the later strength of high alumina cement.

Effect of Barite Powder on the Strength of High Alumina Cement

Baryte powder, commonly known as barite, is a naturally formed white inorganic salt and a neutral filler. Its relative density is 4.16, and it has the characteristics of light resistance and corrosion resistance, low oil absorption value, opaque to ultraviolet rays and X-rays, and radiation protection. Using natural mineral barite as an additive for aluminate cement can reduce the water requirement of the standard consistency of aluminate cement, improve the strength of cement, reduce the later strength regression, and not reduce the refractoriness of cement.

Adding an appropriate amount of barite powder admixture to high alumina cement can not only improve the early strength of high alumina cement but also inhibit the later strength shrinkage of high alumina cement. The appropriate amount of barite powder can promote the hydration of high alumina cement. The main reason why barite powder inhibits the later strength shrinkage of high alumina cement is that it inhibits the crystal transformation of CAH10 and C2AH8 to C3AH6 in the hydration products of high alumina cement. It should be noted that excessive addition of barite powder may cause the strength of high alumina cement to decrease. Therefore, in practical applications, it is necessary to make adjustments according to specific circumstances.

In general, the effect of barite powder on the strength of high-aluminum cement is a complex issue that requires comprehensive consideration of multiple factors. Future research can further explore the optimal addition amount of barite powder and the differences between different types of high-aluminum cement to better play the application value of barite powder in high-aluminum cement.
