Abstract

Here we investigated the interactions of phenol resin precursor and calcium aluminates, in relation to a recently innovated cement based material having a high flexural strength of more than 120MPa. An anhydrous phenol resin precursor was used as the binder and water was not contained in the initial composition.

The method of processing consists of mixing of the cement, the phenol resin precursor, and small amounts of N-methoxymethyl 6-nylon and glycerol under high shear. Addition of the 6-nylon and glycerol was necessary to produce viscoelastic cement paste through a twin roll mill. Setting of calendered sheets takes place during the heat curing at 200° C. The best combination for high flexural strength among all the cements tested is the mixture of calcium aluminate cement and the resole type of phenol resin. Resulting outstanding affinity suggested specific interactions between the phenol resin and calcium aluminate.

We here propose the interaction evidence of phenol moiety-calcium aluminate, based on the experimental data of differential scanning calorimetry and conduction calorimetry.
