Application of Organosilicon Compounds for Improving Moulded Peat Quality
Tver State Technical University, A. Nikitin Street 22, 170026, Tver, Russia
The results of experiments on drying moulded peat modified hydrophobically with water-soluble organosilicon compounds are presented. A theoretical and experimental analysis has found that a hydrophobic agent increases the efficiency of the moulding process while reducing the degree of mechanical peat mass dispersion. When the optimum concentrations of additives are maintained, a significant increase in strength is observed with the same drying intensity.
