Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 118 words
A METHOD FOR PRODUCING A HIGH COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH CONCRETE HAVING A HIGH FREEZING AND THAWING RESISTANCE UNDER THE CONDITION THAT THE CONCRETE IS LEFT TO STAND UNDER ATMOSPHERE AND A SUFFICENT CURING CAN NOT BE EFFECTED, WHICH COMPRISES BLENDING 2-13% BY WEIGHT BASED ON CEMENT OF (A) A MIXTURE OF 12CAO. 7AL2O3 NOT CONTAINING FREE-CAO AND GYPSUM OR (B) A PRODUCT NOT CONTAING FREE-CAO OBTAINED BY SIMULTANEOUSLY BURNING A MATERIAL TO FORM 12CAO. 7AL2O3 AND GYPSUM, TO PORTLAND CEMENT IN A UNIT CENENT AMOUNT OF 500 - 700 KG AND A WATER CEMENT RATIO OF 18-35%, THE WEIGHT RATIO OF 12CAO. 7A12O3 TO GYPSUM BEING 1:0,8-5, THE FINENESS IN BLAINE VALUE OF THE 12CAO. 7A12O3 BEING 4,000-8,000 CM2/G.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 118 words
A METHOD FOR PRODUCING A HIGH COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH CONCRETE HAVING A HIGH FREEZING AND THAWING RESISTANCE UNDER THE CONDITION THAT THE CONCRETE IS LEFT TO STAND UNDER ATMOSPHERE AND A SUFFICENT CURING CAN NOT BE EFFECTED, WHICH COMPRISES BLENDING 2-13% BY WEIGHT BASED ON CEMENT OF (A) A MIXTURE OF 12CAO. 7AL2O3 NOT CONTAINING FREE-CAO AND GYPSUM OR (B) A PRODUCT NOT CONTAING FREE-CAO OBTAINED BY SIMULTANEOUSLY BURNING A MATERIAL TO FORM 12CAO. 7AL2O3 AND GYPSUM, TO PORTLAND CEMENT IN A UNIT CENENT AMOUNT OF 500 - 700 KG AND A WATER CEMENT RATIO OF 18-35%, THE WEIGHT RATIO OF 12CAO. 7A12O3 TO GYPSUM BEING 1:0,8-5, THE FINENESS IN BLAINE VALUE OF THE 12CAO. 7A12O3 BEING 4,000-8,000 CM2/G.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 56 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein 0.3-5% by weight based on cement of at least one of surfactants selected from the group consisting of an anionic sulfonate, sulfuric acid ester salts, a non-ionic polyhydric alcohol, a condensate of naphthalenesulfonate and formalin, an ethylene oxide addition product and a non-ionic anionic surfactant is added thereto.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the amount of (A) or (B) is 4-8% by weight.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 29 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said blended concrete is concreted on site and has a compression strength at an age of 28 days of more than 800 Kg/cm2.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 56 words
A method as claimed in claim 4, wherein 0.3-5% by weight based on cement of at least one of surfactants selected from the group consisting of an anionic sulfonate, sulfuric acid ester salts, a nonionic polyhydric alcohol, a condensate of naphthalenesulfonate and formalin, an ethylene oxide addition product and a non-ionic anionic surfactant is added thereto.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 13 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the 12CaO. 7Al2O3 has an amorphous form.
