The main phases in the clinker after sintering at 1350 °C are 12CaO?7Al2O3, 2CaO?Al2O3?SiO2 and 2CaO?SiO2 when the mass ratio of Al2O3 to SiO2 is 3.0 and the molar ratio of CaO to Al2O3 is 1.0. The proportion of 12CaO?7Al2O3 increases with the increase of Na2O addition when the molar ratio of Na2O to Al2O3 is from 0 to 0.4, while the proportion of 2CaO?Al2O3?SiO2 decreases with the increase of Na2O addition. Na2O forms solid solution in 12CaO?7Al2O3, which increases the volume of elementary cell of 12CaO?7Al2O3. The formation temperature of 12CaO?7Al2O3 is decreased by 30 °C when the molar ratio of Na2O to Al2O3 increases from 0 to 0.4 determined by DSC. The alumina leaching property of clinker increases obviously with the increase of Na2O addition.展开更多

文摘采用“两步法”分别将50 nm、500 nm粒径的SiO_(2)纳米颗粒加入去离子水中制备纳米悬浮液,采用稳定性分析仪测试SiO_(2)-H_(2)O纳米悬浮液的分散稳定性。结果显示:SiO_(2)-H_(2)O纳米悬浮液的不稳定性指数低于0.37,说明SiO_(2)纳米颗粒在去离子水中分散稳定。在此基础上,采用Hotdisk导热系数仪分别测试SiO_(2)-H_(2)O纳米悬浮液在25℃、-20℃下的导热系数,就颗粒浓度和粒径的影响进行研究。结果显示:SiO_(2)-H_(2)O纳米悬浮液在25℃下的液相导热系数随颗粒浓度的增大、粒径的减小而上升;在-20℃下由于冰的导热系数比SiO_(2)纳米颗粒大,SiO_(2)-H_(2)O纳米悬浮液的固相导热系数转而下降。采用Maxwell、Bruggeman、Yu and Choi和Xie提出的导热系数模型计算SiO_(2)-H_(2)O纳米悬浮液的液相和固相导热系数,与测试结果对比发现:导热系数模型能相对较好地预测SiO_(2)-H_(2)O纳米悬浮液的固相导热系数,但对悬浮液液相导热系数的预测存在很大偏差。分析认为,在纳米颗粒自身导热性能和其微观布朗运动对SiO_(2)-H_(2)O纳米悬浮液的导热强化中,纳米颗粒的微观布朗运动起到主要作用。
