The research results on the development of fire-retardant composite cement mortar mixtures on exfoliated vermiculite and volcanic ash with the use of a multifunctional additive are presented D-5. Compositions of fire-retardant composite mortars, which make it possible to significantly improve the physical and mechanical properties of mortar mixtures and mortars, are proposed. Introduction of a multifunctional supplement D-5 in mortar mixtures makes it possible to improve the composite mortar mixtures properties and improve the solution characteristics. Replacement of finely dispersed fraction of exfoliated vermiculite d<0,63 mm volcanic ash by volume in mortar mixtures does not cause a noticeable increase in the solution density, while their strength characteristics increase. The developed composite mortar mixtures meet the requirements of GOST 28013–98 and have a low-cost price due to volcanic ash use.

The review of soil types prevailing in Western Siberia of the Russian Federation is presented. The compositions and physical and mechanical properties of soils are analyzed. Special attention is paid to loess subsidence soils. The problem of obtaining a homogeneous cement-ground mixture is formulated and set. The technological scheme of production of cement-ground piles of foundations of buildings and structures by drilling-mixing method with mechanical activation is considered. Considers methods of strengthening the loess subsidence of soils. Methods for studying the properties of cement-based piles of foundations of buildings and structures are formulated. A multi-factor experiment was conducted to evaluate the parameters that affect the properties of cement-based piles. Based on the research results, conclusions and recommendations are formulated.

This study focuses on the evaluation of the physical and mechanical properties of a porous material based on a mixture of powder (Volcanic ash /Aluminum Beverage Cans) and a solution of phosphoric acid. Volcanic ash (VA) use was collected in one of the quarries of Mandjo (Cameroon coastal region), crushed, then characterized by XRF, DRX, FTIR and named MaJ. The various polymers obtained are called MaJ0, MaJ2.5, MaJ5, MaJ7.5 and MaJ10 according to the mass content of the additions of the powder from the aluminum beverage cans (ABCs). The physical and mechanical properties of the synthetic products were evaluated by determining the apparent porosity, bulk density, water absorption and compressive strength. The results of this study show that the partial replacement of the powder of VA by that of ABC leads to a reduction in the compressive strength (5.9 - 0.8 MPa) and bulk density (2.56 – 1.32 g/cm3) of the polymers obtained. On the other hand, apparent porosity, water absorption and pore formation within the polymers increases with addition of the powder from the beverage cans. All of these results allow us to agree that the ABCs powder can be used as a blowing agent during the synthesis of phosphate inorganic polymers.

Enhancement of physical and mechanical properties and structuring activity of polytetrafluoroethylene as matrix of composites by means of mechanical activation is shown. Operating modes of mechanical activation equipment are defined, in which the service properties of PTFE are maximized. The effect of mechanical activation technology on restructuring and change of morphology and supramolecular structure of PTFE is detected for the first time.

Fiber-gypsum-cement-vermiculite-concrete composites with use of gypsum, Portland cement, volcanic ash, expanded vermiculite and basalt fibers are considered. The results of studies of the compositions and physical and mechanical properties of fiber-gypsum-cement-vermiculite-concrete composites, the dependence of the composite characteristics on the reinforcement with basalt fibers are presented. Graphical interpretations of regression equations for compressive and flexural strength of composites are presented.
