The invention relates to dispersants for inorganic particles, preferably for hydraulic binders, which comprises the following structural units: i) at least one triazine structural unit, ii) at least one polyalkylene glycol structural unit, and iii) at least two phosphoric ester structural units on at least one carbon atom of one or more aromatic triazine rings of the formulae (IIa) and/or (IIb):
N(CH.sub.2CH.sub.2OPO.sub.3H.sub.2).sub.2,(IIa)
and
NHCH.sub.2CH.sub.2OPO.sub.3H.sub.2.(IIb) The invention also relates to a process for preparing the dispersants, to building material mixtures comprising one or more dispersants and one or more inorganic binders. The invention relates to the use of the dispersants as a water reducing agent, as a means for reducing the viscosity and for enhancing the early strengths of aqueous inorganic binders, and also to the use as a grinding aid in the production of cement.

The present invention relates to modification of hydratable cement and cementitious materials, such as mortar cement and masonry or ready-mix concrete using ketone alcohol oil waste (KAOW) material, obtained as an alkali-soluble liquor waste byproduct at a certain stage in the commercial production of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone. Preferred applications for KAOW are in chemical admixture formulations whereby KAOW is used to substitute for a portion of a cement dispersant such as sodium lignosulfonate, sodium gluconate, or other conventional dispersant. Another preferred use is in mortar cement and masonry concrete units such as blocks, pavers, curbstones, and other concrete masonry units wherein air void systems advantageously foster freeze-thaw durability.

A method and Bridge in a Provider Backbone Bridge Network, PBBN, for enabling frames from a Higher Layer Entity attached alternatively to a Provider Instance Port on an I-Component of a Backbone Edge Bridge or to a Customer Backbone Port on a B-Component of the Backbone Edge Bridge, to reach an intended entity in the PBBN. A Virtual Instance Port Service Access Point, VIP SAP, is configured for every VIP and every Higher Layer Entity configured on the I-Component. An Enhanced VIP Port Connectivity function utilizes the VIP SAP to tunnel customer-initiated Layer 2 Control Protocols, L2CPs. A Special Multiplexed SAP handles the frames of the Higher Layer Entity, and is assigned an I-SID value that is universally recognized to identify the L2CPs. A Service Instance Multiplex Entity utilizes the Special Multiplexed SAP to transfer frames between the Provider Instance Port or the Customer Backbone Port and the entity inside the PBBN.

Proposed is a polycondensation product comprising as monomer components at least one aryl polyoxyalkylene ether, at least one vicinally disubstituted aromatic compound, at least one aldehyde and also optionally further aromatic compounds; processes for preparing same, and also use thereof as dispersant for aqueous suspensions of inorganic binders and as grinding assistant for inorganic binders.

The invention relates mainly to a polymer comprising a hydrocarbon-based main chain bearing carboxylic groups and polyalkoxylated chains and up to 4% by weight of anti-oxidant groups, relative to the weight of the final polymer, grafted to the main chain. It also relates to a method for preparing such a polymer and to an admixture which is of use as a plasticizer of suspensions of mineral particles comprising same. Finally, it is related to the use of such a polymer for fluidifying suspensions of mineral particles and reducing the water demand of hydraulic compositions.

The present invention relates to the use of grinding aids comprising Aluminum sulfate, Alum, and/or Na salt, K salt, or Li salt of a hydroxycarboxylic acid, wherein the hydroxycarboxylic acid comprises citric, lactic, glycolic, tartaric, acetic, or malic acid, for producing Ground Activated Cementitious Precursor Material (GACPM) by co-grinding with granulated slag, such as a steel industry waste, Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GBFS), and the products provided therefrom. The use of the one or more grinding aids reduces the grinding time by about 10-33%, improves particle fineness by about 10-33%, and/or reduces carbon emissions (CO.sub.2) associated with such processes by about 10-33%, thereby significantly enhancing efficiency. Additionally, it improves particle morphology and activates amorphous glass particles in the GACPM (compared to conventional Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS), increasing their reactivity with alkali activators in geopolymer cements or with calcium hydroxide when used with Portland cement applications. This activation, due to use of GACPM instead of GGBFS, leads to compressive strength gains of about 5-33% in activated geopolymer cement mortar/grout/concrete and about 5-33% in Portland GACPM cement blends, all while significantly reducing energy usage, costs, and carbon emissions.

The present invention relates to the use of an additive which is an aqueous system of specific polyether silicones in clinker and cement preparation. The additive improves the grinding efficiency and also results in an improvement in the cured properties of cementitious compositions employing cement so produced.

A method for recycling an amine reclaimer waste composition obtained during reclaiming of an amine scrubbing solution has the steps of extracting carbon dioxide from an exhaust gas with an amine scrubbing solution, reclaiming the amine scrubbing solution wherein the amine reclaimer waste composition is obtained, and adding the amine reclaimer waste composition as a grinding aid to a binder component or as an admixture for enhancing the strength development and/or workability of a binder to the binder or a hydraulic building material made with the binder. A method for manufacturing a binder for manufacturing building materials uses the amine reclaimer waste composition.
