High value utilization

of fly ash-based inorganic filler


With the further improvement and development of technology, the market of fly ash-based inorganic filler is huge and has infinite potential

Market introduction

The development of fly ash-based inorganic fillers is an important direction for the green and high-value utilization of fly ash in the future. Especially in recent years, it has become the focus of various universities and research institutes. However, due to the requirement of fine particle size of inorganic fillers, high energy consumption of ultra-fine grinding of fly ash, lack of economy, and lack of good modification technology to make fly ash reach the functional high value of various inorganic fillers, there has been no industrialization for many years. After years of research and development, we are the first in the world to break through the low-cost ultra-fine grinding, grading and functional high value-added modification of fly ash, and the first to achieve industrial operation. With the further improvement and development of this series of technologies, the inorganic filler based on fly ash will be of great potential in the market.

At present its main market application has the following several aspects

Paint

Such as anticorrosive paint, wear - resistant floor paint, wear - resistant corrosion - resistant high temperature coatings.

According to incomplete statistics, in 2016 the domestic consumption of more than 15 million tons of calcium carbonate (not including desulfurization and feed grade), feldspar, quartz, kaolin, bentonite and other clay minerals more than 30 million tons, more than 8 million tons of carbon black, silica, plus a variety of other organic and inorganic, natural and artificial functional filler aggregate demand of more than 60 million tons, with greening, points out, the developing trend of functional materials, the dosage of the packing will be greater and greater.

According to the preliminary investigation and analysis, technical evaluation and the prospect of follow-up research and development, fly ash can gradually replace various conventional natural or artificial fillers at a ratio of 10-20% in the next five years, with a total capacity of 5-10 million tons. As a common chemical filler, calcium carbonate has a wide range of applications and low price. Its fineness is mainly 10 microns. The average price of tons is about 1000 yuan for heavy calcium and 1200 yuan for light calcium. With the same fineness of fly ash ultrafine beads replacing calcium carbonate, the performance indexes of various products have been improved, and the cost has been significantly reduced. Therefore, it has great potential to replace calcium carbonate in the field of dark products.

As a Green High Performance Ultra-fine Admixture or Mineral Admixture or Water Reducer

As a kind of green high performance super fine admixture or mineral admixture or water reducer, mainly replace cement, ore powder, silica fume, ultrafine silica powder, ultrafine limestone powder, etc., used in cement, commercial mixing, PCUHPC and other building materials, in order to reduce costs and improve performance. Especially in the large volume, self-compacting, high strength, high performance, special concrete use effect is more obvious.

Mainly due to this series of products specific surface area of up to 700-3000 ㎡/ kg, cement fineness ratio and S95 mineral powder, thin, more than silica fume spherical degree is high, such as liquidity, good dispersion, and the main chemical composition is active silicon oxide, activated alumina, active calcium oxide, etc., in the concrete system, on the one hand, fill, lubrication, flocculant solution, dispersion, density, such as physical function, On the other hand, the product of the active silicon oxide, activated alumina and active oxide with precipitation of calcium hydroxide crystal of the cement hydration and hydrated calcium silicate gel gelling materials, such as aggregate into the effective alkali, sulfate and chloride ion strength and durability of cement and concrete, such as the harmful material up chemical reaction, generate good for cement and concrete strength and durability of silicon calcium aluminate gel and other beneficial compounds, in the role of two aspects of physical and chemical, to improve the workability of fresh concrete, such as: good liquidity, good water retention, no bleeding, no segregation, slump loss is small, pump, etc.

It can improve the bonding degree between slurry and aggregate interface, reduce the pores of hardened concrete, reduce the pore size, compact structure and volume stability, enhance the ability of concrete to resist various chemical attacks and inhibit alkali aggregate reaction, and significantly improve the durability of cement paste and concrete.

Products in the active silicon oxide, activated alumina composition combined with calcium hydroxide, effective alkali and sulfate, chloride and other adverse to the durability of concrete material, to alleviate some of concrete durability of chemical reactions or other adverse effects.
