Abstract
Abstract A carbonaceous paste is disclosed which is used at ambient temperature without need for prior heating. The paste contains: at least 70% of calcined carbonaceous material; a low-temperature plasticizing agent such as molasses, a sugar, an alginate or a lignosulfonate; and a high-temperature plasticizing agent such as a dry pitch. The paste is used in particular for luting aluminum electrolysis cells.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
43 words
A carbonaceous luting paste capable of being cold shaped, essentially comprising at least about 70% by weight of particulate calcined carbonaceous material, a high-temperature plasticizing agent comprising a water-insoluble organic carbonaceous compound, and an ambient-temperature plasticizing agent comprising a compound in aqueous solution.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
43 words
A carbonaceous luting paste capable of being cold shaped, essentially comprising at least about 70% by weight of particulate calcined carbonaceous material, a high-temperature plasticizing agent comprising a water-insoluble organic carbonaceous compound, and an ambient-temperature plasticizing agent comprising a compound in aqueous solution.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
31 words
A carbonaceous paste according to claim 1 wherein the ambient-temperature plasticizing agent is present in a concentration wherein the water content of the paste does not exceed about 5% by weight.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
34 words
A carbonaceous paste according to claim 2 wherein the water content is limited to about 3% by weight, the content of aqueous solution of ambient-temperature plasticizing agent does not exceed about 13% by weight.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
32 words
A carbonaceous paste according to claim 1 wherein the ambient-temperature plasticizing agent is an aqueous solution of a compound selected from the group consisting of molasses, sugar, alginate, lignosulfonate and mixtures thereof.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
27 words
A carbonaceous paste according to claim 1 wherein the high-temperature plasticizing agent is selected from the group consisting of a water-insoluble thermoplastic resin, pitch and mixtures thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
29 words
A carbonaceous paste according to claim 1 comprising from 8 to 15% by weight of ambient-temperature plasticizing agent and from 6 to 15% by weight of high-temperature plasticizing agent.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
27 words
A carbonaceous paste according to claim 1 wherein the carbonaceous materials contained therein are selected from the group consisting of waste from pre-baked graphite or carbon blocks.
