Abstract

Method of preparing a fibre- reinforced plate comprising a cementitious matrix having uniformly distributed therein synthetic mineral fibres, natural organic fibres or mixtures thereof, fibres and a fine material having an average particle size lower than that of the cement particles, removing excess water therefrom to form a moist sheet, combining several moist sheets to form a multilayered product and allowing said product to harden to form a plate. The presence of fine particles in the slurry prevents fine cement particles from being removed together with excess water and a plate product having improved strength is obtained.

Description

SPECIFICATION Method of preparing a fibre-reinforced cementitious plate This invention relates to a method of preparing a fibre-reinforced plate comprising a cementitious matrix having uniformly distributed therein fibres selected from a group consisting of synthetic mineral fibres, natural organic fibres and mixtures thereof, comprising the steps of applying to a filter cloth a layer of an aqueous slurry of cement and fibres, removing excess water therefrom to form a moist sheet, combining several moist sheets to form a multilayered product and allowing said product to harden to form a plate.
Recently it has been proposed to use mixtures of synthetic mineral fibres, such as rock wool fibres, and natural organic fibres, such as cellulosic fibres, instead of asbestos fibres in conventional cementitious products reinforced with asbestos fibres.
Conventional cementitious products reinforced with asbestos fibres are prepared by applying an aqueous slurry of asbestos fibres and a cement, such as Portland cement, onto a filter cloth and subsequently removing excess water by suction and pressing so as to form a moist sheet. Several moist sheets prepared in this manner are subsequently applied to the surface of a cylindrical drum to form a multilayered coating thereon. The coating thus formed is then cut along a line extending parallel to the axis of the cylindrical drum to form a multilayered sheet. The sheet is subsequently removed from the cylindrical drum and transferred to a support on which it is stored while it is hardening.
When using rock wool fibres and/or cellulosic fibres instead of asbestos fibres in the above mentioned conventional method of preparing fibre-reinforced cementitious plates, part of the cement particles passes through the filter cloth together with excess water which is removed by suction or pressing. The cement particles removed are mainly the fine particles initially present in those portions of the moist sheet which are in contact with the filter cloth. Due to the removal of these fine particles from these zones, the distribution of cement particles becomes non-uniform and the rate of hardening is reduced in these zones.
The object of the invention is to eliminate these drawbacks.
According to the invention there is provided a method wherein a fine material having an average particle size lower than that of the cement particles is incorporated into the aqueous slurry of cement and fibres.
Surprisingly it has been found that the presence of the fine particles significantly reduces the loss of fine cement particles together with excess water. Thus, a uniform distribution of fine cement particles in the multilayered product and a satisfactory hardening are achieved. As a result thereof a plate product having an improved strength can be produced.
The fine particles are preferably filter dust particles produced as a byproduct in the manufacture of silicon or silicon alloys by an electrothermal process. Such filter dust ordinarily contains from 80 to 95% amorphous silica having a particle size mainly falling within the range of from 0.5 to 50 ym. Such silica particles are particularly preferred because they tend to neutralize alkaline products present in the mixture of cement and water, thus inhibiting alkaline degradation of the mineral fibres.
Since high concentrations of fine particles in the slurry of cement and fibres reduce the rate at which excess water is removed from the slurry, the amount of fine particles should preferably not exceed 1 5% by weight based on the weight of the cement.
The effect of the fine particles may be increased by adding to the slurry a small amount, e.g. 0.1% by weight, based on the weight of the cement of a thickening agent. A preferred thickening agent is a product which is commercially available under the trake name "Polyox". The thickening agent may reduce the hardening rate and therefore it may be desirable to use a combination of thickening agent and hardening accelerator, such as calcium chloride.
The invention will be illustrated in further detail with reference to the following example: EXAMPLE Samples of fibre-reinforced cementitious products comprising different natural organic fibres and varying amounts of fibres, thickening agent and hardening accelerator as well as filter dust were prepared by a conventional process for use in the manufacture of socalled asbestos cement products.
The samples were prepared from mixtures having the composition set forth in the following table. The table also sets forth the bending strength and density of the samples obtained.
The dry matter concentration of all slurries was 6.6% by weight.

**) The concentration of CaCl2 is grams per litre water contained in the slurry.
As will appear from the table, the bending strength of the samples containing no filter dust (samples Nos. 10 and 1 1 ) is much lower than that of the samples containing similar amounts of fibres (samples Nos. 5 and 4, respectively).
