The disclosure relates to the field of construction material technology, and more particularly, to a belite-ye'elimite-ternesite cement clinker, a cement and a method for preparing the same.
Calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement clinker is prepared through low-temperature calcination of raw materials such as limestone, bauxite, and calcium sulfate. The predominant minerals within are calcium sulfoaluminate (C4A3$, Ye'elimite) and dicalcium silicate (C2S, Belite), showcasing qualities such as high early strength, rapid setting, low alkalinity, minor expansion, good erosion resistance, and resistance to freezing. Because the calcium sulfoaluminate cement clinker is characterized by its relatively high content of the C4A3$ mineral, the preparation process requires the use of high-quality bauxite with elevated aluminum content as the raw material. This elevation in production materials raises the cost of the calcium sulfoaluminate cement clinker, thereby posing difficulties for the extensive adoption of calcium sulfoaluminate cement.
Recent research has revealed that calcium sulfosilicate (C5S2$, Ternesite) exhibits stronger hydration reactivity within the calcium sulfoaluminate system. When compared to beta-dicalcium silicate (β-C2S). C5S2$ develops within a temperature range of 900-1200° C., and when the temperatures exceed 1200° C., it decomposes into C2S and CaSO4. The most suitable temperature range for the calcination of C4A3$ is 1300-1350° C., which poses a difficulty in achieving stable calcination for ye'elimite-ternesite clinker. At present, two main methods are utilized for the calcination of ye'elimite-ternesite cement clinker: one method involves a “secondary calcination” technique, wherein the cement clinker is firstly calcined at 1300° C.-1350° C.; subsequently, after complete formation of C4A3$, a low-temperature (1100-1200° C.) secondary calcination process is performed; although this method ensures the development and reactivity of C4A3$, it is intricate and challenging to put into practice within an industrial context. Another method involves the direct calcination of the raw materials at a low temperature of 1150-1200° C. for 30-120 minutes to form the ye'elimite-ternesite cement clinker; however, this process results in low content of ternesite in the cement clinker and the potential occurrence of mayenite (C12A7), a mineral that experiences rapid hydration and releases substantial heat; this circumstance results in challenges related to clinker formation and the achievement of satisfactory strength; furthermore, the low temperature calcination process yields C4A3$ with limited reactivity, impeding the growth of the strength of the cement clinker. Therefore, a method for preparing a belite-ye'elimite-ternesite cement clinker is needed.
In the construction industry, phosphogypsum finds its primary application in substituting gypsum within the cement and in the production of the calcium sulfate for construction. However, introducing phosphogypsum into cement concrete can result in adverse consequences, such as reduced mechanical strength of the matrix, increased expansion, and decreased workability. Moreover, owing to the existence of phosphorus impurities (both soluble and eutectic), fluoride impurities, and organic compounds within phosphogypsum, direct incorporation is unfeasible, necessitating processes like calcination, lime neutralization, and washing to remove impurities prior to its utilization. When contrasted with conventional paint materials, phosphogypsum-based plastering materials offer enhanced durability and resistance to cracking.
However, the formulation of these materials generally entails several additives, leading to increased production costs and constraining their use within industries. Therefore, there is a requirement for additional advancement in the utilization of phosphogypsum.
Based on the above analysis, the optimization and enhancement of the formulation and preparation method of belite-ye'elimite-ternesite cement clinker can enhance clinker performance, simplify processes, reduce CO2 emissions, and lower costs. This optimization poses an urgent technical challenge within this industry.
To solve the aforesaid problems, the first objective of the disclosure is to provide a belite-ye'elimite-ternesite cement clinker that exhibits excellent hydration reactivity and high strength both in the early and later stages.
The second objective of the disclosure is to provide a method for preparing the belite-ye'elimite-ternesite cement clinker. The method increases the content of ternesite content and enhances the reactivity of ye'elimite, inhibiting the formation of mayenite and ultimately improving performance of the cement during both the early and later-stages.
To achieve these objectives, the disclosure adopts the following technical solutions:
The belite-ye'elimite-ternesite cement clinker comprises:
In a class of this embodiment, the belite-ye'elimite-ternesite cement clinker comprises:
free-calcium sulfate (f-C$): 3-5 wt. %.

Preferably, a mass ratio of belite to ternesite is 0.25-1, and a mass ratio of ternesite to ye'elimite is 0.5-1.
In a class of this embodiment, raw materials of the cement clinker comprise 40-65 wt. % of limestone, 15-30 wt. % of phosphogypsum, 5-20 wt. % of fly ash, and 5-25 wt. % of aluminum source.
In a class of this embodiment, raw materials of the cement clinker comprise 48-52 wt. % of limestone, 18-24 wt. % of phosphogypsum, 9-15 wt. % of fly ash, and 18-21 wt. % of aluminum source.
In a class of this embodiment, the aluminum source is an industrial waste comprising more than 40 wt. % aluminum; and the industrial waste comprises low-grade bauxite, alumina ash, high-alumina fly ash, or a combination thereof.
In a class of this embodiment, the limestone comprises 50-60 wt. % CaO.
In a class of this embodiment, the phosphogypsum comprises 40-50 wt. % SO3.
In a class of this embodiment, the fly ash comprises 40-60 wt. % SiO2 and 30-35 wt. % Al2O3.
In a class of this embodiment, the raw materials of the cement clinker comprise the following main chemical compositions:
The method for preparing the belite-ye'elimite-ternesite cement clinker, and the method comprising:
In a class of this embodiment, in (1), the raw materials are ground to a particle size of ≤0.075 mm.
In a class of this embodiment, in (1), the ground raw materials are thoroughly mixed for 6-9 hours using a mixer.
In a class of this embodiment, in (2), the process of calcination comprises heating the raw clinker cake to 1200-1250° C. at a heating rate of 5-10° C./min, and maintaining the temperature for 60-120 minutes.
In a class of this embodiment, in (2), the calcined raw materials are rapidly cooled using a wind cooling method.
The third objective of the disclosure is to provide a cement comprising the abovementioned belite-ye'elimite-ternesite cement clinker and calcium sulfate.
In a class of this embodiment, an amount of the calcium sulfate is calculated according to a molar ratio of ye'elimite within the cement clinker to SO3 contained in the calcium sulfate and subtracting the amount of free-calcium sulfate (f-C$) in the cement clinker.
In a class of this embodiment, the molar ratio of ye'elimite within the cement clinker to SO3 contained in the calcium sulfate is determined according to the specification of the cement.
In a class of this embodiment, the calcium sulfate comprises phosphogypsum, gypsum, anhydrite, desulfurization gypsum, or a combination thereof.
The following advantages are associated with the disclosure.
1. The cement clinker comprises ye'elimite at 20-50 wt. %, ternesite at 24-50 wt. %, dicalcium silicate at 10-35 wt. %, and free-calcium sulfate (f-C$) at 2-10 wt. %.
The composition of cement clinker comprises an appropriate amount of ye'elimite minerals, ensuring fast early hydration and high early strength of the cement clinker.
Compared to the conventional cement clinkers of the same type, the disclosed cement clinker showcases an elevated content of ternesite while decreasing the content of dicalcium silicate. The higher reactivity of ternesite in comparison to dicalcium silicate leads to the disclosed cement clinker maintaining its strength growth throughout the later stages of curing, thereby enhancing the late-stage strength of the cement.
Further, the disclosed cement clinker comprises ye'elimite at 40-43 wt. %, ternesite at 24-35 wt. %, belite at 15-25 wt. %, and free-calcium sulfate (f-C$) at 3-5 wt. %. The cement clinker with such composition exhibits positive hydration reactivity and strength growth, leading to high strength in both the early and later curing stages, thereby meeting engineering standards.
2. The cement clinker further comprises a substantial quantity of highly reactive cubic ye'elimite (c-C4A3$), constituting around ¼ of the total C4A3$ content. The increase in c-C4A3$ content enhances the early-stage strength development of the cement clinker. Additionally, the cement clinker comprises α-C2S, which exhibits increased reactivity in comparison to β-C2S. The interaction between α-C2S and C5S2$ contributes to the advancement of strength as the cement clinker matures.
3. The cement clinker comprises limestone at 40-65 wt. %, phosphogypsum at 15-30 wt. %, fly ash at 5-20 wt. %, and aluminum source at 5-25 wt. %. Adjusting the quantity of phosphogypsum in the raw materials allows for the regulation of free-calcium sulfate (f-C$) content in the cement clinker. Introducing an appropriate measure of fly ash promotes the formation and steadiness of highly reactive ternesite. This process yields a cement clinker featuring elevated ternesite levels and reduced belite content, leading to improved reactivity of the cement clinker. The addition of a small amount of an aluminum source contributes to produce a restricted amount of ye'elimite minerals, ensuring favorable early-stage performance of the clinker. Moreover, compared to conventional Portland cement clinkers, the reduced calcium content in the cement clinker reduced the demand for limestone, resulting in decreased CO2 emissions.
4. The cement clinker uses low-grade bauxite as a raw material, which is more accessible than high-grade bauxite. Low-grade bauxite, with low alumina content and impurities is often underutilized. Utilizing low-grade bauxite as a raw material allows for recycling industrial waste, conserving resource, and cutting clinker production costs of the cement clinker.
The cement clinker comprises industrial by-products such as fly ash, phosphogypsum, and aluminum ash used as raw materials. These raw materials are easily accessible and affordable, leading to the cost reductions in cement clinker production. Additionally, up to 30 wt. % of phosphogypsum can be incorporated, which corresponds to 0.3 tons of phosphogypsum per ton of the cement clinker. The broad implementation of the cement clinker has dual benefits: diminishing the accumulation of phosphogypsum waste and elevating resource utilization efficiency within the cement industry.
5. The cement clinker is produced through a calcination process at temperatures ranging from 1200 to 1250° C. The calcination temperatures are reduced by 200-250° C. compared to Ordinary Portland cement (OPC), and by 50-150° C. compared to calcium sulfoaluminate cement. The reduction in temperature brings benefits such as decreased energy consumption during production and improved mineral reactivity within the cement clinker. Consequently, the disclosed method enhances the performance of the cement in both early and late stages.
In the calcination step, the disclosed method utilizes a heating rate that varies between 5 and 10° C./min. The speed facilitates the thorough development and maturity of ternesite within the cement clinker. The resulting cement clinker exhibits a higher content of ternesite and reduced belite content. The cement clinker further comprises a certain amount of free-calcium sulfate (f-C$), and is characterized by its good grindability, leading to decreased energy and mechanical losses essential for clinker grinding. This environmentally conscious and energy-efficient method aligns with the global objective of reducing carbon emissions.

Comparison Example 2 replicates Example 2 from Chinese Patent CN114213043A, following a specific method for preparing a cement clinker: fly ash, phosphogypsum, limestone, and bauxite were dried at 100° C. for 24 hours, then ground into particles with a fineness of ≤200 mesh; a mixture containing 580 g of limestone, 103.3 g of phosphogypsum, 206.1 g of fly ash, and 110.6 g of bauxite were thoroughly blend in a mixer for 12 hours; subsequently, 20 g of the resulting mixture was compressed into a circular disc with a diameter of 20 mm under a pressure of 20 MPa; the circular disc was then placed in a box-type resistance furnace, heated to 1150° C. at a rate of 10° C./min, held for 30 minutes, and rapidly cooled using air flow; and the resulting cooled clinker block was further crushed to achieve a fineness of 200 mesh.
Utilizing the Topas software, the composition of the cement clinker obtained in Comparison Example 2 was determined as follows: ye'elimite at 34 wt. %, ternesite at 12.6 wt. %, belite at 48.5 wt. %, and mayenite at 1.10 wt. %. Within the cement clinker, the mass ratio of belite to ternesite was 3.85; and the mass ratio of ternesite to ye'elimite was 0.37. No free-calcium sulfate (f-C$), cubic ye'elimite, and α-C2S were detected.
X-ray diffraction analysis was conducted on the cement clinkers prepared in Examples 1-6 and Comparison Examples 1-2, along with a reference silicate cement. The X-ray diffraction analysis was carried out using a scanning speed of 4°/min and a step size of 0.01°, and the results were shown in
The figures reveal that, in the cement clinkers prepared in Examples 1-6, no diffraction peaks corresponding to free calcium oxide were detected. The absence signifies the successful calcination process achieved at the given temperature. Furthermore, the cement clinkers exhibit a pronounced diffraction peak for C5S2$, indicating the successful crystallization of C5S2$ under the specific experimental conditions. Additionally, the cement clinkers comprise a highly reactive α-C2S phase. The α-C2S phase exhibits greater hydration reactivity compared to β-C2S and enhances the strength development of the cement clinkers during later stages. In Comparison Example 1, the lower calcination temperature results in subdued diffraction peaks associated with free-calcium sulfate (f-C$) and belite, suggesting their conversion into ternesite through a chemical reaction. The impact of temperature ramp rate on the formation of the cement clinkers is insignificant, as demonstrated through the comparison between Examples 2 and 6. However, in Comparison Example 2, the formation of ternesite is minimal, to the point of being nearly undetectable, which differs significantly from the results observed in Examples 1-6.
Utilizing the XRD patterns, a quantitative analysis of the mineral components within the cement clinkers from Examples 1-6 and Comparison Examples 1-2 was carried out using Topas software and Rietveld full-pattern fitting. The results revealed that the levels of the mineral components in Examples 1-6 aligned with the design specifications. Notably, the content of ternesite reached 42.18 wt. %, demonstrating the feasibility of achieving stable calcination for the belite-ye'elimite-ternesite clinker. The achievement is facilitated through a single calcination process performed within the temperature range of 1210-1250° C., achieved by designing and regulating the content of phosphogypsum in the raw mixture. In comparison, Comparison Example 1 experiences a decrease in the content of cubic ye'elimite and α-C2S due to the lower calcination temperature. Comparison Example 2 displays lower ternesite content and the presence of C12A7, while cubic ye'elimite and α-C2S are not detected. In Examples 1-6, incorporating 2-10 wt. % free-calcium sulfate (f-C$) stimulates the generation of ye'elimite during the early stages of calcination, instead of forming mayenite, calcium aluminate, or other aluminum compounds when calcium sulfate is present. Additionally, the results of quantitative analysis suggest a rise in the proportion of the highly reactive c-C4A3$ in Examples 1-6, accounting for about ¼ of the total C4A3$ content. The increment contributes to the early-stage strength development of the cement clinker.
A strength performance test was conducted on the cement clinkers prepared in Examples 1-6 and Comparison Examples 1-2. The resulting cements, derived from the cement clinkers and mixed with a water-to-cement ratio of 0.5 and a sand-to-cement ratio of 3, underwent a test for compressive strength of cement mortar. A reference cement is obtained through combining Portland cement clinker and anhydrite. The reference cement underwent identical test for compressive strength of cement mortar, employing the same water-to-cement ratio and sand-to-cement ratio. The resulting cement mortars were placed within a curing chamber with a constant temperature of 20° C. and a relative humidity of 95%. Subsequently, the compressive strengths of the cement mortars were evaluated at various time intervals. The results for cement mortars at 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, 28 days, and 90 days are detailed in Table 2 and
