Description

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(1) In this detailed description, the subject matter production method of ready injection material comprising nano hydraulic lime is explained with references to examples without forming any restrictive effect only in order to make the subject more understandable.

(2) By means of the subject matter method, nano sized hydraulic lime production is realized. As a result of this method, lime is formed which is suitable for injection and which is strength. Particularly, the usage of a single material as raw material is one of the most important steps of the method.

(3) The present invention relates to the production method of ready injection material comprising nano hydraulic lime, said production method is characterized by comprising the steps of: a. Selecting marl (clayed lime-stone), comprising at least 70% CaCO.sub.3, as the raw material, b. Grinding marl (clayed lime-stone), selected as the raw material, so as to have particle size smaller than 400 μm, c. Calcining marl (clayed lime-stone), selected as the raw material, between temperatures 1000-1200° C., d. Re-grinding marl (clayed lime-stone), selected as the raw material, after the calcination process, e. Reducing the d.sub.90 particle size of the calcined marl to 486 nm after the grinding process, f. Applying dry mixing process to the material whose particle size is reduced, g. Adding water to the material after the dry mixing process and applying mechanical mixing process for duration between 3-6 minutes at a revolution between 800 and 1000 rpm, h. Adding super-fluidizing chemical additive to the obtained material, i. Mixing the material for duration between 3-6 minutes by using ultrasonic homogenizer and mechanical mixing.

(4) In step a), said marl (clayed lime-stone) including at least 70% CaCO3 also comprises the compounds of SiO.sub.2, Al.sub.2O.sub.3, Fe.sub.2O.sub.3 and MgO in addition to CaCO3.

(5) In step b), whole of the product is grinded so as to have particle size smaller than 400 μm.

(6) In step g), the water/dry powder proportion changes between 1.6 and 1.9 by weight. In this step, the added water provides fluidity, volume fixedness and penetration properties to the material.

(7) In step h), the super-fluidizing chemical additive added to the material is selected from naphthalene or poly-carboxylate based super fluidizers.

(8) In the present invention, the most important step of the production method of the ready injection material comprising nano hydraulic lime is the selection of the raw material. In the grinding process which is one of the steps of the method, the used material is reduced to nano size. Another important step is calcination. Calcination is the main process of lime production. The raw material reduced to the desired size is calcined at suitable temperature by using known methods, and natural hydraulic lime production is realized.

(9) During the step of preparation of the injection material which is one of the most important steps of said method, the limit conditions of fluidity, volume fixedness and penetration properties are fulfilled which shall be provided by the injection materials by means of the selected amount of water, chemical additive proportion and applied mixing procedure.

(10) The present invention is the method of production of ready injection material comprising nano hydraulic lime and has been developed for eliminating the disadvantages formed by the present art.

(11) From another perspective, the present invention relates to a ready injection material comprising nano-hydraulic lime obtained by means of the subject matter production method.

(12) The ready injection materials produced by means of the subject matter method have higher hydraulic effects and are more resistant when compared with the materials obtained by means of known methods.

(13) Accordingly, another item of the present invention is the ready injection material comprising nano-hydraulic lime, characterized in that it is obtained by means of a method formed by the steps of: a. Selecting marl (clayed lime-stone), comprising at least 70% CaCO.sub.3, as the raw material, b. Grinding marl (clayed lime-stone), selected as the raw material, so as to have particle size smaller than 400 μm, c. Calcining marl (clayed lime-stone), selected as the raw material, between temperatures 1000-1200° C., d. Re-grinding marl (clayed lime-stone), selected as the raw material, after the calcination process, e. Reducing the d.sub.90 particle size of the calcined marl to 486 nm after the grinding process, f.
