Calcium carbonate which has an average particle size in the range of from 0.5 to 3 m is used in an inorganic mortar system for a chemical fastening of anchors and post-installed reinforcing bars in mineral substrates. The system includes a curable aluminous cement component A and an initiator component B for initiating the curing process. The component A includes at least one blocking agent selected from phosphoric acid, metaphosphoric acid, phosphorous acid and phosphonic acids, at least one plasticizer, and water. The component B includes an initiator, at least one retarder, at least one mineral filler, and water. Moreover, the calcium carbonate increases load values.

The invention relates to radiation-treated reinforcement fibers, reinforced asphalt and portland cement concrete, and grout, methods for producing the same and application for their use. The radiation treatment includes exposing reinforcement fibers to electromagnetic energy, e.g., gamma rays, and/or electron-beam (E-beam) radiation. As a result of the treatment, the radiation-treated reinforcement fibers have a modified or deformed surface, e.g., an abraded and/or porous surface, as compared to reinforcement fibers without a radiation treatment.

A multi-component inorganic anchoring system, for chemical fastening of anchors and post-installed reinforcing bars in mineral substrates, includes a curable powdery aluminous cement component A and an initiator component B in an aqueous phase for initiating a curing process. Component A further includes calcium carbonate and component B includes an accelerator constituent and water. The calcium carbonate in component A has an average particle size in the range of from 0.5 to 150 m. Methods can be utilized for using calcium carbonate having an average particle size in the range of from 0.5 to 150 m in a multi-component inorganic anchoring system to increase load values. Methods can also be utilized for chemical fastening of anchors, such as metal anchors and post-installed reinforcing bars, in mineral substrates, such as structures made of brickwork, concrete, pervious concrete, or natural stone.
