The study solves actual modern problem for obtaining polysilicate solution (as a mineral component of clinkerless binder) based on low-quality siliceous raw materials. A mechanochemical synthesis method of sustainable colloidal silica sol (with a particle size of 5-25 nm) is proposed, as well as a grounded choice of grinding parameters is made. Influence of protolytic properties of liquid phase on dispersion speed, aggregate and sedimentation stability of the silica sol are studied. The obtained dependence of the ...

This paper presents macro- and micromorphological, mineralogical and physicochemical characteristics of solonetzic processes that developed within a 14-cm-thick plough (P) layer of non-ameliorated Solonetz over a 50-year-long period of its post-agrogenic evolution. These processes have resulted in the formation of a microporofile with micromorphological features of eluvial-illuvial differentiation within the former plough layer. The mineralogical analysis of particle-size fractions (?1, 1?5, 5?10, >10 ?m) of the p...
