Limestone calcined clay cement (LC³) is a low carbon alternative to conventional cement. Literature shows that using limestone and calcined clay in LC³ increases the thermal degradation of LC³ pastes and can increase the magnitude of fire risk in LC³ concrete structures. Higher thermal degradation of LC³ paste prompts this study toward understanding the fire performance of LC³ concrete and the associated magnitude of fire risk. For fire performance, concrete prepared using ordinary Portland cement (OPC), pozzolanic Portland cement (PPC) and LC³ were exposed to 16 scenarios of different elevated temperatures (400℃, 600℃, 800℃, and 1000℃) for different durations (0.5 h, 1 h, 2 h, and 4 h). After exposure to elevated temperatures, mass loss, residual ultrasonic pulse velocity (rUPV) and residual compressive strength (rCS) were measured as the residual properties of concrete. XRD (X-ray diffraction), TGA (thermogravimetric analysis) and three-factor ANOVA (analysis of variance) are also used to compare the fire performance of LC³ with OPC and PPC. Monte Carlo simulation has been used to assess the magnitude of fire risk in LC³ structures and devise recommendations for the robust application of LC³. Results show that LC³ concrete has weaker fire performance, with average rCS being 11.06% and 1.73% lower than OPC and PPC concrete. Analysis of 106 fire scenarios, in Indian context, shows lower rCS and higher failure probability for LC³ (95.05%, 2.22%) than OPC (98.16%, 0.22%) and PPC (96.48%, 1.14%). For robust application, either LC³ can be restricted to residential and educational structures (failure probability <0.5%), or LC³ can have reserve strength (factor of safety >1.08).

Engineered cementitious composites with calcined clay limestone cement (LC³-ECC) as a kind of green, low-carbon and high toughness concrete, has recently received significant investigation. However, the complicated relationship between potential influential factors and LC³-ECC compressive strength makes the prediction of LC³-ECC compressive strength difficult. Regarding this, the machine learning-based prediction models for the compressive strength of LC³-ECC concrete is firstly proposed and developed. Models combine three novel meta-heuristic algorithms (golden jackal optimization algorithm, butterfly optimization algorithm and whale optimization algorithm) with support vector regression (SVR) to improve the accuracy of prediction. A new dataset about LC³-ECC compressive strength was integrated based on 156 data from previous studies and used to develop the SVR-based models. Thirteen potential factors affecting the compressive strength of LC³-ECC were comprehensively considered in the model. The results show all hybrid SVR prediction models can reach the Coefficient of determination (R²) above 0.95 for the testing set and 0.97 for the training set. Radar and Taylor plots also show better overall prediction performance of the hybrid SVR models than several traditional machine learning techniques, which confirms the superiority of the three proposed methods. The successful development of this predictive model can provide scientific guidance for LC³-ECC materials and further apply to such low-carbon, sustainable cement-based materials.

지난 수십 년 동안 건축 분야에서 발생하는 이산화탄소 배출을 줄이기 위한 방법으로 다른 산업계의 폐기물 및 부산물을 시멘트의 대체재로 접목하기 위해 많은 노력이 있었다. 양식 산업에서 발생하는 굴 패각 폐기물은 특정 지역에서 대량으로 발생하며, 적절한 처리 방법의 부재로 인하여 일반적으로 매립되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 시멘트 대체재로 사용되어지고 있는 석회석 소성 점토 시멘트(LC³)의 주원료인 석회석의 대체재로써 굴 패각의 재활용 가능성을 평가하였다. 굴 패각 소성 점토 시멘트(OC³) 페이스트의 화학적·기계적 특성을 규명하기 위해 X-선 회절 분석, 등온 열량 측정, 압축강도 시험 및 열 중량 분석을 실시하였다. 결과적으로, OC³ 페이스트는 LC³와 동일한 포졸란 반응에 의해 유사한 강도 발현 및 반응성을 보여주었으며, 이를 통해 굴 패각이 LC³의 주 원료인 석회석의 대체재로써 사용할 수 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In the present study. we investigated the role of fillers, alumina trihydrate (ATH) and calcined clay, on the mechanical and electrical properties of EPDM compounds. Mechanical properties and tracking resistance improved with increasing ATH fillers. whereas volume resistivity, tan$\delta$ and dielectric constant decreased when ATH was replaced by clay filler. Futhermore, it was more prominent in $90^{\circ}C$ hot water test. This was explained with polarity of ATH, and the smaller particle size of ATH filler than clay filler.

Sutiability of Jungsan clay shale dolomite sludge Anyang feldspar and alumina as raw materials for light-weight porous ceramics was examined. In order to find optimum manufacturing conditions compositions heating temperatuers and heating times were varied and their effects on physical properties were measured and bloating mechanism was investigated. Jungsan clay seems suitable as raw material to make the light-weight constructional materials with 5wt% of ANyang feldspar and alumina added in calcined clay (800$^{\circ}C$) having bulk density of 0.45g/cm3 water absorption of 1.34% and compressive strength of 85kg/cm2 rapid-heated at 1200$^{\circ}C$ for 30min. It is suggested that bloating mechanism depends on the difference of tem-peratures between the inside and outside in specimen the remained gases in interstices can bloat by the li-quid phase of surface with high viscosity and gas pressure at elevated temperature.

세계적으로 대부분의 금속 공예가들은 장신구 작가라고 불려질 만큼 다른 공예 분야에 비해 산업적인 성격이 강하고 현대에 와서는 기능성 소재와 생산기술을 활용하는 경향이 강하다. 본 연구에서는 장신구 중 하나인 목걸이를 테마로 문헌을 조사하고 Art Clay Silver에 대한 재료적 특성을 분석하였다. 이때 조형체의 수축률은 약 0.24%이었다. 이렇게 상온에서 건조시 수축이 일어나는 현상은 결합제와 분말을 연결해주는 수분의 증발을 생각할 수 있다. Art Clay Silver를 소성 후 EDX를 이용하여 면 분석한 결과 은만이 100% 분석되었다. 이는 상온에서 분말과 함께 존재한 바인더가 높은 소성 온도에서 모두 연소되어 증기와 연기로 사라진 것으로 사료된다. 이러한 특성을 수공예 목걸이 제작 시 어렵고 섬세한 작업에 일부 활용함으로서 보다 자연스럽고 아름다움이 표현된 작품을 보여주고자 하였다.

The synthesis of kaolinite mineral from domestic diatomite for silica resource, commercial vailable gibbsite or alumina for alumina resource were made under various hydrothermal treatment, and the sythetic effect of acidic mineralizers, temperature treatment with time duration, particle size of alumina on formation of kaolinite mineral and the plastic properties of synthesized kaolinite were investigated. The various acidic mineralizers which are HCl, HNO3, H2SO4 and Oxalic acid were employed for hydrothermal reaction in the range of 0.01 mol/ι to 2 mol/ι concentration of each mineralizers. It was found that HCl in the level of 1 mol/ι solution produced highly yields of well-crystallized and platy form kaolinite mineral and gave the most effective extraction of iron oxide, compared to that of others, that HNO3 produced highly yield of kaolinite but lower extraction of iron oxide, that H2SO4 produced low yield of kaolinite and formed alunite mineral, and that oxialic acid formed spherical crystalline kaolinite and gave low extraction of iron oxide. Moreover, it showed that kaolinite minerals were well synthesized in a wide range of less than 2 mol/ι acids, but were poorly synthesized at more than 2 mol/ι acids. However, boehmite and kaolinite were coexistently formed in the temperature range of 18$0^{\circ}C$ and 20$0^{\circ}C$ when the calcined diatomite and gibbsite were involved. The well-ordered kaolinite mineral as a platy form was highly synthesized in the temperature range of 220 and 24$0^{\circ}C$, when the same marterials as above were used with treatment of 1 mol/ι HCl solution. The results also revealed that the size of crystalline platy form kaolinite, synthesized from alumina and calcined diatomite with treatment in 1 mol/ιHCl solution at 24$0^{\circ}C$, was much larger than that of gibbsite and calcined diatomite shown previously, and that kaolinite and corundum minerals were coexistently formed under any hydrothermal treatment conditions. The plasticity of synthesized kaolinite from under 2 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ alumina and calcined diatomite was very poor, and that of the synthesized kaolinite from raw diatomite and gibbsite gave higher than that of calcined diatomite and gibbsite.

The following paper concentrates on the objective of studying the influences of extent of duration and temperature on the Pozzolanic properties as well as reactivity of locally existing natural clay of Nai Gaj, district Dadu, Sindh Pakistan. The activation of the clay only occurs through heating when temperature in a furnace chamber reaches 600, 700 and 800oC for 1, 2 and 3 hours and at 900 and 1000℃ for 1 and 2 hours. Furthermore, the strength activity index (SAI) of advanced pozzolanic material happens to be identified through 20% cement replacement for different samples of calcined clay as per ASTM C-618. The compressive strength test of samples had been operated for 7 and 28-days curing afterwards. The maximum compressive strength had been seen in mix E in which cement was replaced with clay calcined at 700℃ for 1 hour that is 27.05 MPa that is 24.31% more than that of control mix. The results gathered from the SAI verdicts the optimal activation temperature is 700℃ within a one-hour time period. The SAI at a temperature of 700℃ with a one-hour duration at 28 days is 124.31% which happens to satisfy the requirements of the new Pozzolanic material, in order to be applied in mortar/concrete (i.e., 75%). The Energy- dispersive spectrometry (EDS) along with the X-ray diffraction (XRD) have been carried out in means of verifying whether there is silica content or amorphous silica present in metakaolin that has been developed. The findings gathered from the SAI were validated, as the analysis of XRD verified that there is in fact Pozzolanic activity of developed metakaolin. Additionally, based on observation, the activated metakaolin holds a significant influence on the increase in mortar's compressive strength.
