The application of dispersed reinforcement and other measures of crack control are considered as an effective way to counterbalance the natural ductility of cement-based materials. This may lead to a high volume of reinforcement, for example SIFCON, where a high strength and very brittle matrix is transformed into a crack resistant and quasi-elastic material (cf. Section 13.5). 

Considerable effort in goal-oriented research is still needed in relation to applications of advanced cement-based materials. Notwithstanding recent achievements, the use of very high performance concrete and ultra high performance concrete is still limited to single special structures or so-called hot points in the structures.

The KDF Filter. The KDP filter (Pig. 23) (Amafilter, Holland) is based on the same principle as disk filters. It was developed for the treatment of mineral raw materials, like coal flotation concentrates or cement slurries, and can produce a filter cake of low moisture content at very high capacities, up... 

The DSP technology is based on the high silica addition, very quick reacting with calcium hydroxide [176, 177]. This silica, in the form of silica fiune, plays a dual role as the pores filling material (micro-filler), as well as the calcium hydroxide bonding reagent calcium hydroxide is released as a product of cement hydration. 

Monolithic refractories are used in sections of cement kilns, typically at the outlet, where wear rates are very high. At these zones, dense silicon-carbide-based castables are often used. The cyclones in the preheater section of cement plants are lined with dense castables due to the complexity of their shape and the wear resistance required. The shell of the exhaust gas duct is made from both dense and insulating castable materials. In the cooler section of the plant, monolithic refractories are used to line the ceiling. 

Polymeric materials are commonly used for bonding materials. Impact or contact adhesives are mainly based on highly crystalline polychloroprene (Neoprene), NR latex is used as a flexible adhesive very suitable for use with fabrics. Rigid adhesives based on materials such as polystyrene cement, epoxy resin or cyanoacrylates are suitable for bonding of rigid materials. The bond is provided by intramolecular forces between the adhesive and the adherend. Adiabatic...
