Investigation of thermal properties and composition on basalts of the Aydarkul deposit by methods DTA/DTG and X-ray diffraction

Abstract

To study the applicability of the basalt fiber through various experimental works in thermal and chemical environments, lining heat-insulating materials basis on basalt of Aydarkul deposit were compared and discussed. The identification and study phase pert structures lining heat-insulating materials basis on basalt of Aydarkul deposit used X-ray diffraction analysis. The basalt fiber showed better strength retention than the glass fiber at relatively high temperature. The article studies the endothermic effects of the thermolysis process, which appear at a temperature of 80 ÷240 0C. They show the decomposition of clay impurities or the removal of hygroscopic water contained in rocks. The chemical and mineralogical composition of the basalts of the Aydarkul deposit has been studied by such modern methods as X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis methods.
