What Is Autoclave Curing In AAC Block Plant
Autoclave is a kind of large pressure vessel equipment, it is often used for high temperature and high pressure curing of concrete body, autoclave curing of autoclaved brick, sand-lime brick, fly ash brick, aerated concrete block, new lightweight wall material, concrete pipe pile and other building products. In AAC block plant, raw materials need autoclave curing to produce certain properties unfound in raw materials such as light weight with great strength or specific type of rigidity.
Autoclave curing in AAC plant
We know in autoclaved aerated concrete block production process, autoclave steam curing is a must, and this process determines the strength and performance of products. In the manufacturing process, a correct autoclave curing system can achieve light brick masonry strength requirements and ensure excellent performance, what’s more, it can also make the manufacturing process smoother.
Saturated steam under certain pressure is the necessity for autoclave curing, the experiments show that generally AAC ( autoclaved aerated concrete) block adopts greater than 0.8MPa saturated steam. Under such pressure, calcium oxide in fly ash and calcium silicate in silica quicklime can react to produce the hydrated calcium aluminum gel in a certain period of time.
Notice the autoclave curing system should be based on different raw materials, steam pressures size, strength and other conditions. Too long or too short time for autoclaved aerated block products will have a negative impact on production. To develop a reasonable system is vital.
