The method of making cement from limestone (CaCO 3) and low-silica bauxite (Al 2 O 3) was patented in France in 1908 by Bied of the Pavin de Lafarge Company. The initial development was as a result of the search for a cement offering sulfate resistance. The cement was known as "Ciment fondu" and "Ciment électro-fondu" in French. [2] [3]

Calcium aluminates can form complex salts in combination with different types of anions.Two series of calcium aluminates are known in cement chemistry: AFm and AFt phases, being respectively mono- or tri-substituted with a given divalent anion X (e.g. SO 2− 4, CO 2− 3, or hosting a divalent impurity such as SeO 2− 4 [3]...), or with two units of a monovalent anion, e.g. OH −, Cl − ...
Regular concrete is the lay term for concrete that is produced by following the mixing instructions that are commonly published on packets of cement, typically using sand or other common material as the aggregate, and often mixed in improvised containers. The ingredients in any particular mix depends on the nature of the application.
So, AFm does not refer to a single pure mineralogical phase but rather to a mix of several AFm phases co-existing in hydrated cement paste (HCP). [ 1 ] Considering a monovalent anion X, the chemical formula can be rearranged and expressed as 2 [Ca 2 (Al,Fe)(OH) 6 ]·X·nH 2 O (or Ca 4 (Al,Fe) 2 (OH) 12 ·X·nH 2 O , as presented in the table in ...

Fondu Fyre is a heat and erosion resistant concrete developed during the Apollo space program. It was developed to withstand the supersonic plume of a rocket engine during launch and hot-fire tests [citation needed]. Allied Mineral Products based in Ohio holds the registered trademark on the name Fondu Fyre. [1]
Mixing of liquids occurs frequently in process engineering. The nature of liquids to blend determines the equipment used. Single-phase blending tends to involve low-shear, high-flow mixers to cause liquid engulfment, while multi-phase mixing generally requires the use of high-shear, low-flow mixers to create droplets of one liquid in laminar, turbulent or transitional flow regimes, depending ...
