Abstract
Embodiments presented provide for a method of making a material building block using a caustic material within the matrix of the material. In embodiments, dry ingredients are mixed together, followed by steps of adding the caustic material the mixed dry ingredients. The resulting mixture may be cured into shapes or forms conducive to be used as building materials.
Claims13
A method for making a caustic-based building material, comprising:
- retaining material constituents of the building material;
- mixing dry constituents of the material constituents of the building material to result in a mixed dry constituent mixture;
- adding a caustic solution to the mixed dry constituent mixture to form a resultant mixture, wherein the caustic solution is sodium hydroxide;
- placing the resultant mixture in a form;
- compressing the resultant mixture in the form;
- and
- curing the resultant mixture wherein the curing occurs in an autoclave in saturated steam at a temperature of 190 degrees C. for 8 hours.
