Design of asphalt mixtures with the use of higher amount of RAP
Pavličík, Petr ; Matoušek, David (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
In the introduction of the Master’s thesis describes for obtaining and processing of reclaimed asphlalt. Major point of the thesis is design of asphalt mixtures with use of higher amount of RAP for asphalt binder course. Asphalt mixtures were designed with contents of 0%, 30%, 50% and 70% of RAP. On each asphalt mixtures were compared parameters set out by functional tests – resistence to permanent deformation and resistence to water.

Effect of plasticizers on the behaviour and properties of alkali activated materials
Langová, Markéta ; Koplík, Jan (referee) ; Kalina, Lukáš (advisor)
Alkali activated materials could be suitable alternative to construction materials based on ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Therefore, it is advisable to pursue these binders further on. Aim of this thesis is to clarify the effect of lignosulfonate-based plasticizer and polycarboxylate-based superplasticizer on the behaviour and nature of alkali activated materials. For the purposes of studying the efficiency of plasticizing additives, the change of workability of alkali activated blast furnace slag in dependence on time, effect of additives on mechanical properties as well as, with usage of isothermal calorimetry, their impact on kinetics of solidification and hardening had been observed. The stability of the plasticizing admixtures in a high alkaline environment such as water glass and sodium hydroxide had been studied using infrared spectrometry. As a last step, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) had been used while clarifying the chemical changes in the structure of plasticizing additives after adsorption to blast furnace slag.

Systems of self-setting foundry mixtures on the base portland cements
Janíčková, Petra ; Cupák, Petr (referee) ; Rusín, Karel (advisor)
The project elaborated in frame of engineering studies branch N2332-00. The project is submitting design of technology production sand mixture with cement binder – Portland binder CEM I 42,5 N. Pursuant to of the literary pursuit a problem of the sand mixture with cement binder was tested few sand mixture. As optimal composition it turned out application sand mixture with 2 % CaCl2 content and 1 – 2 % Dextrin content. Sand mixture with cement has good moulder and regenerating.

Plasticizers replacing lime in cement-lime mortars
Kajsrlík, Jan ; Bayer, Patrik (referee) ; Vyšvařil, Martin (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the possibility of replacing lime in lime-cement plaster mortars. Considering commercially sold products, it explores the ways of replacing lime qualities by organic materials. Their influence on density, beam test and compression strength are researched; absorption capacity, frost resistance, capillary absorption coefficient are also assessed. Finally the organic materials are compared with the qualities of the lime-cement mortar

The possibilities regulation of production hydration heat of concrete with plasticizer
Hermann, Radek ; Halas, Vladimír (referee) ; Sedlmajer, Martin (advisor)
This thesis studies the problematics of water reducing and high range water reducing admixtures and their influence on the process of hydration of cement pastes. The process of hydration is examined in this thesis both in terms of hydration heat and hydration temperature rise. Attention is also paid to the influence of plasticizers in combination with retarding admixture regarding rheological properties of modified fresh cement pastes and their mechanical properties after 3 and 7 days from mixing.

Binders on the base alumina cements and their properties
Morávková, Jitka ; Cupák, Petr (referee) ; Burianová, Klára (advisor)
The Bachelor Thesis describes chemical and mineralogical structure, as well as alumina cements manufacture and some of their physical and techno-logical properties. It takes accelerators or plasticizers induced changes by search method. An illustrative laboratory measurement of mixture with accel-erator and plasticizer is complementary to theoretical knowledge in fluidity, air permeability and strength of mixture with aluminium silicate cement binder.

Utilization of lignosulfonate plasticizer in alkali-activated materials
Zetocha, Martin ; Hrubý, Petr (referee) ; Kalina, Lukáš (advisor)
Tato bakalářská práce se zabývá využitím plastifikátorů na bázi lignosulfonátu v alkalicky aktivovaných materiálech. Sledován byl vliv na směs pasty aktivované vysokopecní strusky za použití hydroxidu sodného, vodního skla o různých modulech a uhličitanu sodného. Pozorován byl vliv plastifikátoru na bázi lignosulfonátu při zamíchávání do různých směsí, na zpracovatelnost, mechanické vlastnosti a reologii směsi. Důležitým faktorem byly použité aktivátory ve směsích. Nejlépe reagující směs na lignosulfonát se ukázala být za použití NaOH jako aktivátoru. Při pokusech pochopit reologické vlastnosti sledovaných směsí, jako klíčového faktoru chování těchto směsí bylo měření zeta potenciálu. Hodnoty zeta potenciálu nám daly bližší náhled na povrchový náboj častic vysokopecní strusky. Ten se prokázal jako klíčový faktor při posuzovaní účinnosti plastifikátoru. Tato zjištění budou vzata v úvahu a dále diskutovány v této práci.

Action of organic additives in various alkali-activated binders
Markusík, David ; Kalina, Lukáš (referee) ; Bílek, Vlastimil (advisor)
This thesis explores the influence of admixtures (lignosulfonate plasticizer, hexylene glycol) on the rheology of AAM. With the characterized precursors, the rheology of AAM without admixtures is examined based on the chosen activator. Then the influence of the additives was measured. Rheological measurements were complemented by the determination of LS admixture adsorption on chosen precursors in solutions of NaOH, NaVS, and Na2CO3, and the determination of zeta potential of chosen plastified AAP. For comparison, measurements of cement pastes with the same admixtures were made in parallel to the AAM. the ability of plasticizer to improve the workability of slag and fly ash-based AAM when activated by NaOH was observed. No plastifying effect was found in MK-based pastes in none of the studied environments. The rheological measurements are in accord with most of the measured adsorptions and determined zeta potentials. In the case of hexylene glycol, the rheology of pastes is primarily influenced by the combination of precursors and admixtures. With hexylene glycol admixture the NaVS activator is inapplicable because silicates and hexylene glycol interact and worsen the rheological properties of the AAP.

Effect of chemical additives on the process hydration temperature of cement pastes
Knotová, Kateřina ; Halas, Vladimír (referee) ; Sedlmajer, Martin (advisor)
Chemical additives, especially plasticizers and super plasticizers, are necessary components of nearly every concrete. These additives improve the workability of grout and concrete mixes thereby reducing vibration intensity during process of compaction. Advantages of these additives are associated with reduction of the amount of gauging water which leads to decrease water-cement ratio, increase strength and durability of concrete, eventually improve other attributes. The aim of this thesis is to observe the effect of plasticizers and their dosage on the rheology and development of hydration temperatures in simpler systems, which are the cement pastes. The thesis also considers compressive, tensile and flexural strength of concrete.
