Waste glass, Alkaline cements, Solubility, Sodium silicate hydrates (waterglass), Alkaline activatorsAbstract
It has studied the solubility process of four different waste glasses (with different particle sizes, <45 µm and>125 µm) in alkaline solutions (NaOH and NaOH/Na₂CO₃) and water as a reference and under different conditions of solubility (at room temperature, at 80°C and a mechano-chemical process). Have established the optimal conditions of solubility and generation of sodium silicates solutions, and these were: the smaller particle size (<45 µm), with NaOH/Na₂CO₃ solution and with temperature during 6 hours of stirring time. The statistical analyses of the results give importance to the studied variables and the interactions. Through ²⁹Si NMR MAS it has confirmed the formation after dissolution processes of monomeric silicate, suitable for use as an activator in the preparation of alkaline cements and concretes.
