CaCO₃와 Al₂O₃를 이용한 CaO-Al₂O₃계 클링커 합성

This paper presents the synthesis results of CaO-Al₂O₃ system clinker using the CaCO₃ and the Al₂O₃ according to the synthesis methods dependent on the temperature. The purpose of this study is the formation of the CaO-Al₂O₃ system clinker containing high ratio of CaO·2Al₂O₃ (CA₂). The maximum sintering temperature for the synthesis of CaO-Al₂O₃ compounds was 1250℃, 1300℃ and 1400℃. The CaO-Al₂O₃ compounds was sintered at the maximum sintering temperature for three hours. After sintering, the compounds was analyzed using X-ray diffraction method. The 12CaO·7Al₂O₃ (C1₂A₇) and CaO·Al₂O₃ (CA) increased as elevating the maximum sintering temperature whereas the CA₂ decreased. Especially, at the 1250℃ of maximum sintering temperature, the un-reacted CaO and Al₂O₃ was identified.
