| Summary: | The study focuses on increasing the clinker formation degree of calculus types of siliceous rock. One of the ways to increase the flint aggregate strength is to saturate the surface layer of grains with alkaline ions. While calcining, this will provide formation of confining elements which are more caked than the inner layers. To preserve natural porosity inside granules and to increase density and durability of a surface layer, it is offered to process grains of dense siliceous rock before calcining them with a solution of alkaline flow of caprolactam production (AFCP). It is shown that the degree of density is determined by the soaking depth, which depends on the molecular structure of alkaline solution. The paper also demonstrates results of influence of processing conditions on soaking depth of grains with 10-15 mm fraction. The researchers studied the effect of AFCP solution concentration in the range varying from 3 to 20%. The duration of treatment ranged from 2 to 5 minutes. The research results are presented in the form of graphs. The optimal processing mode is also determined. |
