Abstract
In the steel industry, a large amount of diverse waste is generated, including carbon-bonded magnesia-rich waste originating from refractories. This study focused on the development and characterization of composite material based on magnesium oxychloride cement (MOC), with an emphasis on incorporating MgO–C-based refractory waste (CBMW) as a sustainable filler. To reach the best possible material properties, two different size fractions were applied in various ratios, completely replacing quartz sand. A comprehensive analysis of all composite material samples was conducted utilizing various analytical techniques, XRD, SEM, EDS or STA-MS. Mechanical properties such as compressive strength, flexural strength, and Young's modulus of elasticity were evaluated. Even though even the best sample did not surpass the mechanical properties for the reference, compressive strength 78.1 MPa was achieved, which is a more than sufficient value for most indoor applications.
