Abstract:

The structures of aluminum-oxide polyhedron in fly ash and their changes after a grinding process were studied by 27Al MAS and 2D 3QMAS NMR. The results showed that tetrahedron and octahedron are the main forms of aluminum-oxide polyhedron in raw fly ash, and they exist in a multi-structural surrounding. Only slight changes were observed for the tetrahedron structures after grinding, indicating that they are stable, probably because they exist in a three dimensional structural net of [SiO4]4-. The results also showed that, after grind ing, part of the octahedron structures broken away from the net, and transformed and distributed in a symmetrical structural surrounding. The results from the 2D 3QMAS experiments showed that a small amount of hexahedron structures originally existed in the raw fly ash was damaged after grinding.
