Abstract:The influence of the parameters of accelerated carbonization in a 99.9% CO2 environment on the hardening kinetics of blended cement with 15 wt% opoka additive, the physical and mechanical properties of the resulting products, the mineralogical composition, and the amount of absorbed CO2 were investigated. Sedimentary rock opoka was found to have opal silica and calcite as its predominant constituent parts. Therefore, these properties determine that it serves as an extremely suitable raw material and a source o… Show more
