The effect of boron and its compounds on setting time of portland cement
Kratochvíl, Jiří ; Švec, Jiří (referee) ; Opravil, Tomáš (advisor)
The aim of this work is to study the influence of boron and its compounds, boric acid and borax, on hydratation of portland cement. The first part describes chemical composition of portland cement and reactivity of its components. The second part deals with hydratation of portland cement. The teoretical part ends with description of retardation of portland cement using gypsum or other sulphate options. The experimental part describes preparation of samples – cement paste – modified by addition of boron, boric acid and borax in diferent concentrations. Results are obtained by evaluation of calorimetric curves, mechanical properties and phase composition. The goal is to describe kinetics of targeted slowed down process of hydratation and to find such addition which would suspend setting of boron modified system entirely. Comparison of effects of each boron-containing compound is based on its concentration and on its kind.
