Influence of composition mineral additives on cement properties

The influence of nano MgO and BaSO4 particle size additives on properties of PMMA bone cement

A common technique to aid in implant fixation into surrounding bone is to inject bone cement into the space between the implant and surrounding bone. The most common bone cement material used clinically today is poly(methyl methacrylate), or PMMA. Although promising, there are numerous disadvantages of using PMMA in bone fixation applications which has limited its wide spread use. Specifically,...

The influence of cement composition on superplasticizers’ efficiency

Fundamental interactions between polymeric superplasticizers and cement are studied. Cements with different alite-, belite-, C3Aand C4AF-contents are used. The use of commercially available superplasticizers like melamine formaldehyde sulfite(MFS) and β-naphthalene sulfonic acid formaldehyde-(NSF) resins is investigated. These superplasticizers (industrial products) are characterized by means o...

INFLUENCE OF NANO SILICA ON PROPERTIES AND MICROSTRUCTURE OF HIGH ALUMINA ULTRA-LOW CEMENT REFRACTORY CASTABLES

Colloidal silica bonded refractory castables have been developed recently. It was found that colloidal silica is one of the best binders can substitute other binders such as cement in No Cement Castable (NCC) and Ultra Low Cement Castable (ULCC) refractories. Also composition of colloidal silica with appropriate additives resulted in a gel form which makes the initial strength. Moreover, the na...
