Abstract
The subject of this article is the development of composite materials using methods of activation of raw materials and activation of water. This article focuses on the electrical activation of water used in the preparation of ceramic mass. Electrochemical activation of water is carried out in an electrolyzer with anode and cathode zones with a constant magnetic field. The following works were carried out for the electroactivation of water. Water is placed in a container with electrodes (anode and cathode) and exposed to an electric field. At the first stage, before activation, the hydrogen index pH of the water medium was measured. After activation was complete, the pH of the activated water was measured again and then filtered to remove any sediment that had formed. To obtain composite materials, clay from the Tuleiken deposit in the southern region of Kyrgyzstan was used. Grinding of raw materials in the process of mechanical activation leads to an increase in the homogeneity and density of the product microstructure, a decrease in energy costs, and an improvement in the quality of the finished product. The finished samples were tested for compressive strength, water absorption, and frost resistance. The results showed that mechanical activation of clay and electrical activation of water have a positive effect on their strength, water absorption, and frost resistance. The sediments released during the activation process allow the removal of salt-like substances from water. The precipitates released during the activation process allow the removal of salt-like substances from the water. Thus, the proposed method allows for the improvement of the quality of composite ceramic materials and reduces production costs.
