Method for using alkanolamine in a grinder
Disclosed is a method for using a secondary or tertiary alkanolamine for grinding cement, the method including: forming an inorganic acid salt of the alkanolamine; and adding the salified alkanolamine to a grinder.
1. A method for reducing the fluidity of at least one hydraulic binder in a grinding mill, the method comprising:
forming an inorganic acid salt of triisopropanolamine (TIPA);
adding the inorganic acid salt of triisopropanolamine into the grinding mill,
wherein the fluidity of the hydraulic binder is reduced.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic acid salt of triisopropanolamine is an acid halide salt or a salt of sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, phosphonic acid, or hydrogen sulphate.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic acid salt of triisopropanolamine is an acid halide salt or a sulfuric acid salt.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic acid salt of triisopropanolamine is a hydrochloric acid salt.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic acid salt of triisopropanolamine is combined with at least one additive selected from the group consisting of alkanolamines other than inorganic acid salts of triisopropanolamine; sodium chloride, calcium chloride, sodium thiocyanate, calcium thiocyanate, sodium nitrate, calcium nitrate and mixtures thereof; glycols; glycerols; water reducing adjuvants/admixtures and high water reducing adjuvants/admixtures; sulphonated salts of melamine-formaldehyde polycondensates, commonly known as melamine-based superplasticisers; lignosulfonates; sodium gluconate and sodium glucoheptonate; polyacrylates; polyaryl ethers (PAE); polycarboxylic acids; products based on polyalkoxylated polyphosphonates; surfactants, carboxylic acids; setting retarders; and mixtures thereof.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein one or more anti-foaming (defoamer) compounds are used in combination with the inorganic acid salt of triisopropanolamine.
