This study examines the role of cavitation in drying cementitious materials. Classical nucleation theory is used to understand and study the parameters that influence cavitation pressures. The water desorption isotherms indicate that both heterogeneous and ...
Model Ca-Mg-Na-aluminosilicate glasses based on compositions found in a calcareous fly ash were synthesised and their reactivity assessed in NaOH solution and in Portland cement paste. It was found that the reactivity followed the same trend in both system ...
