What is it about?

High performance colloid flake of carbon is gaining interest due importance in meeting the challenges of the globe. To make novel superior materials, the pulverized fuel ash-green adhesive based construction materials modified with the flake of carbon and the colloid flake of carbon were evaluated in view of synthesis, physico-mechanical properties, and material processing and models. For better understanding, such experimental samples as green adhesive plaster and green adhesive grout were made of the pulverized fuel ash of class C, the common adhesive, the flake of carbon, the colloid flake of carbon, fine sand, and the distilled water to compare with the structural material properties each other. The results of the adsorption spectra of optical atomic spectroscopy of the colloid flake carbon, the thickening-period of plaster, the spread and the consolidating level, the apparent unit volume mass, the apparent porosity, the apparent compacity, and the compressive stress of green grouts were reported in the research. It was concluded that the flake of carbon and the colloid flake of carbon led to important progress in the novel superior materials, e.g., accelerating of the thickening-period of plasters and increasing of the compressive stress of grouts.

Why is it important?

here is plenty of much issue based on non-renewable resources, e.g., supplying of coal, sustaining of coal quality, greenhouse gas emission (GHG) and reducing of fuel ash generated by power plant and super power plant, in energy manufacturing [1]. Adhesive material industry also encounters similar problem as energy industry being, e.g., raw material consuming, the GHG emission, and increasing in energy demand [2]. As a consequence of the popularity of two industries, the demand of reducing of fuel ash in the energy industry is intertwined with the demand of reducing of raw material consuming in the adhesive material industry [1,2]. Pulverized fuel ash and fly ash generated by energy industry have chemical composition and pozzolanic activity that allow them to be used in supplementary cementitious material (SCM) as artificial pozzolanic additive material and/or substitution material for adhesive industry [3,4]. Therefore, the use of these two wastes as raw materials for other applications could be very useful to give them a better destination.
