Abstract
The objective of this work is the mineralogical characterization of the red clay waste from the Dumañuecos deposit to establish its potential in replacing Portland cement. The deposit samples were characterized chemically and mineralogically using X-ray Diffraction and Atomic Absorption Spectrometry techniques. The equivalent kaolin contents were calculated and the ignition losses were determined. Pozzolanic activity analyzes were carried out using the aluminum and silicon solubility method and the correlation of the equivalent kaolin content and compressive strength. The chemical composition of the red clay waste from the Dumañuecos deposit meets the criteria established by the Cuban standard TS 528: 2013 (NC TS 528:2013 2013), being considered as mineral additions for type N cement. According to the mineralogical composition, it was established that the red clay residues of the Dumañuecos Deposit have a high content of clay minerals of the kaolinite group represented by kaolinite and nacrite; which reflects its great potential to be used as pozzolans. The red clay residues from the Dumañuecos deposit according to the Almenares Reyes methodology are type IV clays, however the variability during the activation process is associated with the presence of Fe and Al oxides, which does not have a negative impact on its use. as pozzolans, so they are considered to have good prospects for this application.
