The Properties of Modified Adobe Materials with Desulfurization Waste

Abstract:

As a modifier, desulfurization waste can improve the performance of traditional adobe materials. The results show that it was possible effectively to modify properties of adobe materials by means of DHG and DFA. When the molding pressure is 15 MPa, the compressive strength of modified adobe materials arrived at 7.5MPa at 28 days. Moreover, modified adobe materials remain a better volume stability and water resistance observed in the drying shrinkage (0.6mm/m) and softness coefficient (0.52), respectively.
