Title: A structural material made from fly ash and process of making the same
IPC: C04B18/08
Filed: 1933-03-30
Abstract: Fly ash, obtained in burning pulverized coal, is mixed with an alkaline earth base and water, and the mass is then indurated by heat to form a synthetic stone.  Before mixing, the ash may be moistened with water to slake any quicklime it may contain, and it should be tempered, to replace films of gases or non-aqueous liquids which may be adsorbed on the particles, by a suitable liquid such as water. This tempering may be effected by adding water to the mass and kneading, or simply adding water to which a wetting agent such as glycerine has been added, and the wet mass may then be subjected to moist heat before being left to stand while protected from evaporation.  Rosin or other resinous materials, or waste sulphite liquor residue or sugars may be added to the mix to prevent efflorescence in the product.  A suitable aggregate such as broken stone or cinders may be added to the mix before shaping, and the shape may be wholly or partly coloured. Suitable proportions of the main ingredients are 100 parts (dry weight) of fly ash, 10 parts of lime, 15 of water and 1/2 of pulverized rosin.  The shapes may be hardened by steam at, for example, 320 DEG  F., so that the essential reacting water is retained in the mass.
