Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a cementitious composite including: (1) mixing an extrudable cementitious composition by first forming a fibrous mixture comprising fibers, water and a rheology modifying agent and then adding hydraulic cement; (2) extruding the extrudable cementitious composition into a green extrudate, wherein the green extrudate is characterized by being form-stable and retaining substantially a predefined cross-sectional shape; (3) removing a portion of the water by evaporation to reduce density and increase porosity; and (4) heating the green extrudate at a temperature from greater than 65° C. to less than 99° C. is disclosed. Such a process yields a cementitious composite that is suitable for use as a wood substitute. Particularly, by using higher curing temperatures for preparing the cementitious budding products, the building products have a lower bulk density and a higher flexural strength as compared to conventional products. The wood-like building products can be sawed, nailed and screwed like ordinary wood.

Abstract:
Chemically bonded ceramics and manufacturing processes are described. In one aspect, a manufacturing process of a chemically bonded ceramic is carried out by: (1) combining an acidic liquid and Fly ash to form a mixture; and (2) curing the mixture to form the chemically bonded ceramic. The Fly ash corresponds to at least a majority by weight of solids combined with the acidic liquid to form the mixture.

Abstract:
Process for production of acid and high temperature resistant cement composites, where the matrix is alkali activated F fly ash alone, F Fly ash combined with ground slag or ground slag alone. F-fly ash produces lower quality alkali activated cement systems. On the other hand the lack of calcium oxide results in very high resistance to medium and highly concentrated inorganic or organic acids. The high strength and low permeability of pure F-fly ash cement systems is achieved by using in the composition un-densified silica fume, the amorphous silicone dioxide obtained as by products in production of ferro-silicones. Precipitated nano-particle silica made from soluble silicates and nano-particle silica fume produced by burning silicon tetra chloride in the hydrogen stream.
