Plaster-based magnetite composite materials in construction

Abstract

Calculation and experimental data demonstrate the possibility of using iron-ore concentrate of Lebedinsky Mining and Processing Plant (Lebedinsky GOK) in the production of plaster concrete. Their physical-mechanical, thermal and radiation protective properties were studied. Structurization mechanisms in plaster magnetite systems depending on the type of plaster binder, textures and the structure of plaster crystals providing for the design of composite materials with predetermined properties are suggested. Composite materials to ensure protection against X-ray radiation are obtained.
