摘要:
It has been unexpectedly discovered that the addition of a natural or other pozzolan to non-spec fly ash significantly improves the properties of the non-spec fly ash to the extent it can be certified under ASTM C618 and AASHTO 295, as either a Class F or Class C fly ash. The natural pozzolan may be a volcanic ejecta, such as pumice or perlite. Other pozzolans may also be used for this beneficiation process. Many pozzolans are experimentally tested and may be used to beneficiate non-spec fly ash into certifiable Class F fly ash. Additionally, this disclosure provides a method of converting a Class C fly ash to a more valuable Class F fly ash. This discovery will extend diminishing Class F fly ash supplies and turn non-spec fly ash waste streams into valuable, certified fly ash pozzolan which will protect and enhance concrete, mortars and grouts.

It has been unexpectedly discovered that the addition of a non-spec natural pozzolan to non-spec fly ash significantly improves the properties of the non-spec fly ash to the extent it can be certified under ASTM C618 and AASHTO 295, as either a Class F or Class C fly ash. Other pozzolans may also be used for this beneficiation process. Many pozzolans are experimentally tested and may be used to beneficiate non-spec fly ash into certifiable Class F fly ash. Additionally, this disclosure provides a method of converting a Class C fly ash to a more valuable Class F fly ash, by utilizing natural pozzolans. This discovery will extend diminishing Class F fly ash supplies and turn non-spec fly ash waste streams into valuable, certified fly ash pozzolan which will protect and enhance concrete, mortars and grouts.

摘要:
The present invention provides materials and methods to enhance dispersion of carbon black within polymer systems, improving both static physical properties and dynamic physical properties of polymers (such as natural or synthetic rubber) containing carbon black. Some variations provide a composition containing a polymer, carbon black, and a performance-enhancing additive comprising amorphous silica, wherein the performance-enhancing additive causes a property improvement associated with or imparted by the carbon black. The performance-enhancing additive scrubs or exfoliates the carbon black in situ, to improve tensile strength, modulus, tear, elongation, dispersion, flow properties, viscosity, hardness, specific gravity, rebound, torque, and/or load of the polymer composite.
