EFFECT OF MARBLE SLURRY AS FILLER ON SOUNDNESS ANDCOMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF MAGNESIA CEMENTR.N. Yadav and Rajendra SharmaAbstract Investigation, the effect of different amounts of marble slurry as filler on soundness and compressive strengthof magnesia cement has been carried out in this paper. For this purpose, three different dry mix compositions(1:0; 1:1 and 1:2) of magnesia and marble slurry were prepared. The dry mixes were then gauged with30°Be concentration of magnesium chloride gauging solution. It was observed soundness as well ascompressive strength decrease with increasing amount of marble slurry in dry mix composition. |
