Synthetic Preparation and Properties of Thaumasite
Klásková, Silvie ; Dvořák, Karel (referee) ; Fridrichová, Marcela (advisor)
This thesis continues in the monitoring of thaumasite thermodynamic stability. It mainly deals with mineral properties and possible ways of its synthetic preparation. Mineralogical composition determined using X-ray diffraction analysis as well as possible impact of sample storage conditions can help further property identification. Based on the obtained radiographs, thaumasite mineral can be well distinguished from the very similar ettringite mineral.

Thermodynamic Stability of Thaumasite
Pospíšilová, Klára ; Dvořák, Karel (referee) ; Fridrichová, Marcela (advisor)
This work deals with the resolution of the identification characteristics of the thaumasit, which falls into the same group of AFt phases as the mineral ettringit. Both of these stages have the same structural arrangement and the morphology. This work’s specific goal is the synthetic preparation of thaumasit in a variety of conditions and its evaluation.

Study of the properties of the ettringite which was produced synthetically
Hučínová, Lenka ; Jiroušková, Kateřina (referee) ; Fridrichová, Marcela (advisor)
Up to present, ettrigite has been prepared by two means in the Institute of Technology of Building Materials and Components of the BUT Faculty of Civil Engineering: originally by the hydration of the yeelimite clinker; recently by the direct synthesis of ettringite from calcium hydroxide and aluminum sulfate, the latter being considered more suitable in qualitative and quantitative terms. This diploma thesis focuses on the comparison of both means, using ettringite produced by the latter as control sample. This endeavor focuses on monitoring the stability of ettringite and its possible conversion to other minerals using X-ray diffraction analysis, thermal analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
