Book Illinois Clays and Shales as Mortar Mix  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Illinois Clays and Shales as Mortar Mix Classic Reprint written by R. K. Hursh and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-04 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illinois Clays and Shales as Mortar Mix The use of clay as a plasticizer in cement-mortars was reported as early as 1884 and 1888. Examples of mortars that contain clay and that have shown excel lent strength and weather resistance for periods of 25 or more years are known. A number of experimental studies have been made on the properties of mortars that contain clay materials. Grant1 reported in 1891 that a 10 per cent clay impurity in sand 'was not detrimental to the mortar strength. Davis and Troxell2 studied the volumetric changes in Portland cement mortars with additions of lime hydrate and of Clay. The contraction of the clay-cement mortar after 375 days in air was somewhat greater than that of the lime-cement mor tar mixed in the same proportions. Tests of expansion of masonry piers laid up With the various mortars showed a somewhat smaller change in those containing clay than in the lime - cement or the plain cement mortars.

Book Clays and Clay Products  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Clays and Clay Products Classic Reprint written by Alfred B. Searle and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Clays and Clay Products This volume, like the others in this series, does not aim at exhausting the subject with which it deals. On the contrary, its chief aim is to give the commercial man sufficient insight into the nature of the various materials and products described for him to realise, in broad outline, the processes involved in their treatment and the extent to which they may be used for the purposes of his own business. Few people, except those who are actually engaged in the manufacture of clay products, have any idea of the wide ramifications of the industries connected therewith, yet, if clay products were suddenly removed and became irreplaceable, the loss among both primitive and civilised peoples would be incredibly great. Vast and important as is the Iron and Steel industry, it is in many ways only secondary to the trades connected with clays and clay-products;indeed, without the latter, the very production of iron would become practically impossible, architecture would, in many districts, be stifled, and the most evident signs of civilisation would be absent. To know something of the industries connected with so important a subject should form part of the education of every commercial and business man, and it is for such that this volume has primarily been written.

Download or read book Building Stones and Clays written by Edwin C. Eckel and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Building Stones and Clays: Their Origin, Characters and Examination The present volume may in some sense be considered as an outgrowth of the author's previous work on cementing materials, for it deals with natural materials which are closely related, either as constituents or as competitors, to the manufactured products therein discussed. It may be noted that little space has been devoted to a de scription of the local distribution of building stones and clays. The inclusion of such data, relative to products which are nat urally so common and so widely distributed, tends to convert a general treatise into a mere directory of the quarry and clay product industries. The extensive reference lists which are pre sented, however, will serve to point out where information re garding the stone or clays of any particular state may be found. Attention should also be directed to the chapters relative to the examination and valuation of clay and stone properties. So far as known to the writer, most of the material therein pre sented has not been touched upon in earlier works on these subjects.

Book Clay Mineral Cements in Sandstones

Download or read book Clay Mineral Cements in Sandstones written by Richard Worden and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-03-05 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clay minerals are one of the most important groups of minerals thatdestroy permeability in sandstones. However, they also react withdrilling and completion fluids and induce fines migration duringhydrocarbon production. They are a very complex family of mineralsthat are routinely intergrown with each other, contain a wide rangeof solid solutions and form by a variety of processes under a widerange temperatures and rock and fluid compositions. In this volume, clay minerals in sandstones are reviewed interms of their mineralogy and general occurrence, their stable andradiogenic isotope geochemistry, XRD quantification, their effectson the petrophysical properties of sandstones and theirrelationships to sequence stratigraphy and palaeoclimate. Thecontrols on various clay minerals are addressed and a variety ofgeochemical issues, including the importance of mass flux, links tocarbonate mineral diagenesis and linked clay mineral diagenesis ininterbedded mudstone-sandstone are explored. A number of casestudies are included for kaolin, illite and chlorite cements, andthe occurrence of smectite in sandstone is reviewed. Experimentalrate data for clay cements in sandstones are reviewed and there aretwo model-based case studies that address the rates of growth ofkaolinite and illite. The readership of this volume will include sedimentologists andpetrographers who deal with the occurrence, spatial and temporaldistribution patterns and importance of clay mineral cements insandstones, geochemists involved in unraveling the factors thatcontrol clay mineral cement formation in sandstones and petroleumgeoscientists involved in predicting clay mineral distribution insandstones. The book will also be of interest to geologistsinvolved in palaeoclimate studies basin analysis. Latest geochemical data on clays in sandstones Provides important information for geologists involved inbasin analysis, sandstone petrology and petroleum geology If you are a member of the International Association ofSedimentologists (IAS), for purchasing details, please see:http://www.iasnet.org/publications/details.asp?code=SP34
