Abstract

The utilization of clay wastes (CW) containing boron as cement additives was investigated. The effect of CW on mechanical and chemical properties of cement prepared by adding CW to clinker and gypsum was determined. The results obtained were compared with Portland cement properties and Turkish standards (TS) values. It was determined that the first clay waste (CW1) and the second clay waste (CW2) may be used as cement additives up to 5% and 10%, respectively. © 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
