Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how low-quality calcined Fanja (FNJ) clay influences the performance of cured cement mortar (CM), particularly against chloride and sulfuric acid aggression.
- Various percentages (10%, 25%, 35%, and 50%) of FNJ, calcined at different temperatures (620 °C, 760 °C, and 900 °C), were tested, revealing that FNJ900 samples demonstrated the best physical and mechanical properties.
- The presence of hematite in the calcined clay enhanced strength and acid resistance, making CM-FNJ760 the preferred option for sustainable construction due to its high strength index and lower environmental impact compared to CM-FNJ900.
