The target basicity of iron ore sinter is set by blast furnace slag composition requirements, and therefore varies with the proportion acid burden such as lump pellets. Increasing will increase basicity. mineralogy produced a range between 1.0 3.0 was analysed using optical point counting under reflected light microscopy. Sinter from BlueScope Steel’s industrial strand over 30-year period, duri...

Fly ash belite cement is a green, low carbon cementitious material, mainly composed of hydraulic minerals dicalcium silicate and calcium aluminate. In this study, we used fly to control the setting time, hydration heat, strength, composition microstructure products in Portland cement. Results showed that incorporating into can shorten accelerate reaction speed, enhance early heat release rate r...

The apparent calcium (Ca) digestibility coefficient (ADC) and true (TDC) of different inorganic sources were determined in laying hens ages. Three Ca tests carried out, each assessing 240 Lohmann Brown lineage distributed a completely randomized design. Nine dietary treatments arranged 3 × factorial design consisting three ages (40, 50 70 weeks) (dicalcium phosphate (DCP) sources, fine (FL) coa...

The radiopaque dicalcium silicate cement (RDSC) displayed a shortened setting time and good biocompatibility. This study aimed to compare the regenerative potential of RDSC and white-colored mineral trioxide aggregate (WMTA) using a rabbit femur model. The animals were sacrificed at one, three and six months to accomplish histological and biochemical analyses. The results indicated that after o...

In this study, an injectable bone substitute (IBS) consisting of citric acid, chitosan, and hydroxyl propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) as the liquid phase and tetra calcium phosphate (TTCP), dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) and calcium sulfate dehydrate (CSD, CaSO4 x 2H2O) powders as the solid phase, were fabricated. Two groups were classified based on the percent of citric acid in the liquid ...

New polymeric calcium phosphate cement composites (CPCs) were developed. Cement powder consisting of 60 wt% tetracalcium phosphate, 30 wt% dicalcium phosphate dihydrate, and 10 wt% tricalcium phosphate was combined with either 35% w/w poly methyl vinyl ether maleic acid or polyacrylic acid to obtain CPC-1 and CPC-2. The setting time and compressive and diametral tensile strength of the CPCs wer...
