Valorisation of waste ilmenite mud in the manufacture of sulphur polymer cement

Abstract This paper reports the preparation of sulphur polymer cements (SPCs) incorporating waste ilmenite mud for use in concrete construction works. The ilmenite mud raw material and the mud-containing SPCs (IMC-SPCs) were characterised physico-chemically and radiologically. The optimal IMC-SPC mixture had a sulphur/mud ratio (w/w) of 1.05 (mud dose 20 wt%); this cement showed the greatest Read more about Valorisation of waste ilmenite mud in the manufacture of sulphur polymer cement[…]
