<p>A mixture for the production of tile cement, plaster, concrete or mortar contains cement or other binders, fillers, sand and/or gravel, the amounts of binders and other powdered materials in the size range 0.001-0.4 mm being adjusted to give a straight line when the proportion by weight of the powder fractions is plotted against particle size on a log scale. A building materials mixture for the production of tile cement, plaster, concrete or mortar, with at least two powdered granular components, i.e. with one or more binders such as cement, lime, gypsum or anhydrite (calcium sulfate) in a different particle size distribution and/or at least one powdered filler, together with sand and/or gravel, in which the contents by weight of the various particle size fractions in the powdered components (or components of the same particle size) in the range 0.001-0.4 mm are about the same, thus giving a straight or essentially straight line when the percentage by weight of these powder fractions is plotted against particle size on a logarithmic scale. An Independent claim is also included for a process for the production of such a mixture (which gives concrete etc. when mixed with make-up liquid), by measuring the particle size distribution (PSD) in one binder and then milling or sieving the other powder component(s) so that its/their PSD complement(s) that of the first binder and the mixture of powdered binder(s), filler(s) and/or flue dust shows a constant particle size distribution in the range from 0.001 to 0.4 mm.</p> |
