Abstract:Chinese oil shale reserves are about 483.2 billion tons. The total amount of silicon and aluminum in the chemical composition can be as high as 80%, but the pozzolanic activity is very low. As an admixture instead of cement, the content is limited to less than 20%. In order to increase the activity of oil shale residue and increase the dosage, this study is based on calcination at 600°C for 2 hours, supplemented by high-calcium fly ash to provide hydraulic properties and improve fluidity. The composite dosage is set to 30%. XRD and FTIR were used to characterize the activation effect of thermal activation on oil shale residue, and then XRD, SEM and EDS were used to analyze the hydration characteristics of the modified oil shale residue-fly ash composite cementing system. The results show that the activity of calcined oil shale residue comes from deoiling, dehydration, dehydroxylation, increasing the specific surface area and destroying the kaolin crystals in the oil shale residue to produce amorphous aluminosilicate. The 7-day activity index is from 42.0% Increased to 97.4%, 28-day activity index increased from 42.4% to 85.8%; calcined oil shale residue mainly provides early strength when compounded, fly ash mainly provides late strength, and calcined oil shale residue participates first in the hydration process In the secondary hydration reaction, if Ca(OH)2 is sufficient, the fly ash will undergo a tertiary hydration reaction. If Ca(OH)2 is not sufficient, fly ash will participate in the secondary hydration reaction as a core, and the reaction system The higher the Al/Si value, the stronger the ability of C-A-S-H to bind water, and it is easy to condense into a seamless whole. The 28-day activity index is used as the criterion, and the best mix ratio is calcined oil shale residue: fly ash = 1 :3, the activity index is 92.8%.
