Study of the Processes in Swelling of Expanded Clay Masses Based On Raw Materials of Uzbekistan

The article investigates the possibilities of obtaining high–quality expanded clay based on Gurlen deposit Republic Uzbekistan, with additives from local oil and fat combines – gossypol pitch dune sand Tuprakkala massif. It is determined that addition to raw mixture within specified limits significantly increases swelling mass. was also mass (together pitch) in moderate quantities contributes an increase mechanical strength lengthening interval experimental samples.
