Abstract

The fine aggregates of below 2 mm size was fabricated using by the vertical furnace in which the aggregates could be sintered at floating state and its physical properties were analyzed. The liquid formed at the surface of specimens sintered at $1200{\sim}l300^{\circ}C$ induced a gas in core to expand so the denser shell and porous core could be produced. The C series specimen fabricated by crushing an extruded body had an irregular shape and sharp edges but those became spheroidized by bloating due to gas expansion inside. The fine aggregates fabricated in this study was as light as floating in the water and had an apparent density of $0.68{\sim}1.08$. The absorption rate was proportioned to a porosity showing that the pores in core was not closed completely. The properties of fine aggregates fabricated in vertical furnace were similar with those of in an electric muffle furnace but the sticking-together phenomenon by surface fusion was not occurred in the vertical furnace. The aggregates fabricated in this study had a little lower impact resistance than that of natural aggregate but satisfied the unit volume weight standard specified in KS.

입자를 부유 상태에서 소성할 수 있는 수직로를 이용하여 2 mm 이하 크기의 경량 세골재를 제조하고 그 물리적 특성을 고찰하였다. $1200{\sim}1300^{\circ}C$에서 소성된 대부분 시편은 표면에 다량의 액상이 발달하였고 따라서 내부의 가스가 팽창하여 다공성의 중앙부와 상대적으로 치밀한 표피층이 형성되었다. 특히 압출 성형체를 파쇄시켜 얻은 부정형의 C 계열 시편은 $1300^{\circ}C$ 이상으로 소결하면 내부에 가스가 팽창하여 시편 전체가 부풀어져서 구형으로 되었다. 본 부유 수직로에서 소성된 시편의 겉보기 비중은 $0.68{\sim}1.08$ 범위로 대부분 물에 뜰 정도의 경량이었다. 제조된 경량 세골재의 흡수율은 기공율과 비례하였고, 따라서 내부 기공들이 완전 고립된 폐쇄기공은 아님을 나타내었다. 부유소성로에서 제조된 세골재는 전기 머플로에서 소성된 시편과 비슷한 물성을 나타내었으나, 전기로에서 나타나는 골재 간 융착 현상이 발생하지 않았다. 수직로에서 부유소성된 세골재의 내충격성은 자연골재보다 다소 낮았으나, 단위용적중량은 KS 규격 기준을 만족하였다.
