Mapping the potential of secondary products from the production of titanium white
Nehéz, Samuel Emil ; Šoukal, František (oponent) ; Opravil, Tomáš (vedoucí práce)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with the use of secondary products from the production of titanium white and its subsequent use during cement production. Secondary products from the production of TiO2 could be regarded as several kinds of sulphate waters, where by their successive neutralization gypsum by-products are prepared. The aim of the bachelor’s thesis was to experiment whether it is possible to use some of these gypsum by-products as solidification retarder in Portland cement. Cement pastes were prepared and subjected to mechanical and analytical examinations. During the mechanical examinations, strength in pressure during bending and strength in pulling for the duration of 60 days were monitored. The material from tested bodies of pastes was reviewed by x-ray difraction analysis after 7 and 28 days. Just as was determined the optimum W/C, initial and final setting time. The prepared samples with the gypsum by-product as their content had some features comparable with commercially used cement.

A study of the hydration of calcium aluminate cement in an excess of silica fume
Nehéz, Samuel Emil ; Švec, Jiří (oponent) ; Novotný, Radoslav (vedoucí práce)
This thesis deals with the effect of silica fume (microsilica) on the hydration process of alumina cement (CAC). During the preparation of the samples, the effect of the amount of microsilica and the effect of the hydration temperature on the formation of hydration products were investigated. Microsilica was always in excess compared to alumina cement. The characterization of the raw materials was carried out using particle size measurement and calorimetry. In the case of the samples themselves, calorimetric measurements showed that the hydration process is divided into two separate events. Thanks to this, it was possible to stop the hydration at the desired time and examine the emerging hydration products. The presence of silica fume caused the formation of characteristic hydration products - strätlingite (C2ASH8). It was found that as the temperature of hydration increases, the resulting products form more quickly. Increased hydration temperature had a negative effect on mechanical properties. The properties and characterization of the prepared samples were further investigated using XRD, TG-DTA and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
