TECHNOLOGICAL ASPECT OF BRICK PRODUCTION USING THE METHOD OF AUTOCLAVING
Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 3
Abstract
Production of sand-lime bricks using the autoclaving method is a well-known process, especially in Europe. During the autoclaving process, also called the hydrothermal treatment or hardening the materials with lime and/or cement binder, a series of microstructural changes occur. Primarily, hydrated silicates of lime are created, which are responsible for physical-mechanical features of aerated materials. The article aims at characterizing the process of brick production using the method of autoclaving and estimation of their microstructural properties.
