Abstract

The color control of Portland cement clinker was regulated by separate insertion of calcium fluoride in the presence of Na2O. Studies were carried out on a raw mixture of pure reagents with a Fe2O3 content equal to 2.93%. The mixture has the following characteristics: KH  =  0.93; AM  =  1.24; SM  =  2.18. Calcium fluoride was inserted as a CaF2 reagent of the “pure” qualification. Na2O was inserted as a “pure” Na2CO3 reagent. The samples were roasted in a laboratory furnace at 1300 °C with an isothermal exposure time of 20 min. The heating speed of the furnace is 10 °C/min. The color change was determined by measuring the brightness coefficient on a reference polished barium sulfate plate using an FB-2 gloss meter. The content of free calcium oxide was determined by the ethyl-glycerate method. It was found that the optimal approach for increasing the clinker whiteness is to insert 1.5% CaF2 separately in the presence of 3.5% Na2O. The amount of 3.5% Na2O is sufficient to bind stoichiometric all aluminum in Na2O∙Al2O3. The binding of Al2O3 to sodium aluminate prevents the formation of calcium aluminoferrites. At the same time, the whiteness of the compound with a mineralizer is 49.5%. In the compound without a mineralizer, it reaches 39%. An increase in the clinker whiteness to the maximum is accompanied by a decrease in the content of free calcium oxide. In the compound without a mineralizer, it is 20.1%. The compound with a mineralizer has a free calcium oxide content of 5.28%.
