Lime-Pozzolan Plasters with Enhanced Thermal Capacity
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new type of lightweight plaster with the thermal capacity enhanced by PCM (Phase Change Material) addition is analyzed. The basic physical characteristics, namely the bulk density, matrix density, total open porosity, and pore size distribution are measured at first. For description of mechanical properties, compressive strength measurements are done. The thermal properties are characterized by transient impulse techniques as well as by DSC analysis that enables determination of the specific heat capacity as a function of temperature. The resistivity against the liquid water ingress is described by water absorption coefficient measurement. The experimental results indicate a good capability of the designed plaster to moderate effectively the interior climate of buildings. Keywords—Lime-pozzolan plaster, PCM addition, enhanced thermal capacity, DSC analysis.

استفاده از ترکیب آهک و پوزلان برای تثبیت خاکهای ماسه سیلتی در شبکههای آبیاری و زهکشی
Stabilization of the silty sand soils which cover large areas of Iran and world is inevitable as their geotechnical properties are weak. In this research, the effects of different contents of lime and pozzolan admixtures on compressive strength of silty sand soil were investigated. To do this, different treatments were prepared by adding five levels of lime including 0, 1, 3, 5 and 7 percent by...

The thermal and acoustic properties of innovative insulating systems used as building coatings were investigated: Granular silica aerogel was mixed with natural plaster in different percentages. This coating solution is transpiring and insulating, thanks to the use of a natural lime coat and aerogel, a highly porous light material with very low thermal conductivity. The thermal conductivity of ...
متن کاملMicrostructure and rheology of lime putty.
The rheology of lime binders, which is critical in the final performance of lime mortars and plasters, is poorly understood, particularly in its relationship with the microstructure and colloidal characteristics of slaked lime (Ca(OH)(2)) suspensions (i.e., lime putties). Here, the contrasting flow behavior of lime putties obtained upon slaking (hydration) of soft and hard burnt quicklimes (CaO...

Class F fly ash cannot be used alone in soil stabilization applications as it is not selfcementing. An activator such as Portland cement or lime must be added to produce cementitious products often called pozzolan stabilized mixtures. The developed mixture must possess adequate strength and durability, should be easily compacted, and most importantly should be economical and environmentally fri...

Time-dependent natural weathering processes suffered by historic bricks in Toledo (Spain) improve their physicomechanical properties by porous infill with gypsum, ettringite and mainly calcite. Both, these bricks and their experimental replica bricks, made from the original calcareous clays fired at the probable historical temperatures (700o 900oC), have been analyzed by X-ray diffraction, opti...
