RESUMO

This work studies the use of a residual foundry sand as raw material in mortars for building material applications. The residue used (residual foundry sand) was supplied by a foundry industry from Joinville-SC and is classified as residue class II, according to the Brazilian normatization NBR 10004/87. The residue and the ordinary sand were characterized by physical tests and by chemical and morphological analyses through the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The residue was incorporated into mortars to partially replace the ordinary sand from 0,00 to 100% (in mass). The samples were cured in alkaline water immersion for 28 days. Samples without residue and with 30% of residue were cured naturally during six and twelve months after 28 days of cure in saturate water. After these aging times the samples were tested by uniaxial compression, analyzed by SEM and by leaching and solubilization tests. The investigation through these techniques allowed us to observe that the residue has not influence in the mechanical strength of the mortars. The binder used in the foundry sand (bentonite plus coal powder) leads to a nucleation and growth of ettringite crystals, mainly due to the presence of sulfur in the coal powder. Thus, the ettringite stabilize chemically, at least partially, the sulfur present in the residue. The ettringite contained in the mortars produced with residue turns into monossulphate with the aging time. The mortars are mainly constituted of C-S-H phases. Regarding the leaching tests it was found that, in every sample, the chemical elements analyzed all have the concentrations bellow the maximum limits established by the NBR 10004/87. The solubilization test showed that the residue concentration in mortars must be limited to avoid environmental impact. On the samples composed with 30% of residue and without residue it was found a small surplus of aluminum.
