The effect of alkali hydroxides and equilibration time on Al uptake by calcium silicate hydrates (C-S-H)

Sonya Barzgar

Cement production accounts for approximately 8% of man-made CO2 emissions. Lowering these CO2 emissions is currently one of the most important and urgent research topics within the cement community. To reduce these emissions, the Portland cement (PC) is pa ...

Impacting factors and properties of limestone calcined clay cements (LC3)

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva, François Henri Avet, Julien Ston, Aurélie Rosine Favier, Hamed Maraghechi, Wilasinee Hanpongpun

This paper details the main factors influencing the performance of limestone calcined clay cements (LC3). The kaolinite content plays a major role in the rheological properties as well as strength development. Even in the presence of secondary phases, kaol ...

Plagioclase Glomerocrysts: taking the pulse of volcanic eruptions

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig

Volcanic eruptions result from complex interplay of magmatic processes including the ascent and storage of magma in the crust, volatile exsolution and crystallization. The dynamics of crystallization in shallow subvolcanic systems and the consequences of i ...

The Effect of Alkali on the Properties of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3)

Karen Scrivener, Wilasinee Hanpongpun

The impact of alkali content on the properties of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3) was investigated in this study. KOH was added in order to increase the alkali content of the blended cements from 0.44% Na2Oeq to 1.21% Na2Oeq. The increase of alkali ac ...

From rock to magma and back again: The evolution of temperature and deformation mechanism in conduit margin zones

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Michael Heap

Explosive silicic volcanism is driven by gas overpressure in systems that are inefficient at outgassing. The zone at the margin of a volcanic conduit-thought to play an important role in the outgassing of magma and therefore pore pressure changes and explo ...

Phase transition processes of olivine in the shocked Martian meteorite Tissint: Clues to origin of ringwoodite-, bridgmanite- and magnesiowilstite-bearing assemblages

Philippe Gillet

Tissint is a heavily shocked olivine-phyric shergottite. We investigated and documented several phase transformations and dissociation phenomena of olivine adjacent to and in many shock-induced melt-pockets of Tissint. Olivine grains entrained in the melt- ...

A new quantification method based on SEM-EDS to assess fly ash composition and study the reaction of its individual components in hydrating cement paste

Karen Scrivener, Cyrille Dunant, Mohsen Ben Haha, Pawel Tadeusz Durdzinski

Calcareous fly ashes are high-potential reactive residues for blended cements, but their qualification and use in concrete are hindered by heterogeneity and variability. Current characterization often fails to identify the dominant, most reactive, amorphou ...

Crustal differentiation in the early solar system: Clues from the unique achondrite Northwest Africa 7325 (NWA 7325)

Philippe Gillet

The unique achondrite NWA 7325 is an unusual olivine gabbro composed chiefly of calcic plagioclase (An(85-93)), diopsidic pyroxene (En(50.1-54.0) Wo(44.8-49.3) Fs(0.6-1.3)), and forsteritic olivine (Fo(97)). It is Al and Mg-rich and Fe and Na-poor and disp ...
