The Effects of Addition Two Different Types of Trass to the Clinkering Reaction

In this study, instead of clay the effect of trass - which is used as a component for clinker production in the cement industry and has properties that are significant for agriculture - are researched. The clinkering properties of raw material compositions which are prepared according to the constant Lime Saturation Factor insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(LSF); degree were considered in relation to sintering at fixed temperature insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(1450 oC);. Two different clinkers - namely trass 1  which is added to clinker 1 and trass 2 which is added to clinker 2 - were produced from the raw material compositions prepared at a constant LSF. The clinkering reaction was determined by the measurement of the free CaO insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(FCaO); value. According to the FCaO content and the amount of C3S test results, clinker 1 is  preferable to clinker 2. Because of the C3S phases are 70,43 % and 42,72 % respectively.
