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 ...

Impact of limestone fineness on cement hydration at early age

Karen Scrivener, Mohsen Ben Haha, Yosra Briki

This study compares the influence of two limestone fineness on strength development and cement hydration. The replacement of clinker by 20% of fine limestone (d(v,50) = 2 mu m and SSA = 4,21 m(2)/g) gives similar strength development to PC up to 7 days. Fi ...

Towards tailored cement-based materials with ground calcium carbonates

Emmanuel Denarié, Lionel Sofia

Proportioning the dosage of Ground Calcium Carbonates (GCC) in cementitious materials, beyond current normative levels, is one of the most promising ways towards sustainability of mortar and concrete technology. Performance parameters such as the water/bin ...

Strength-promoting mechanism of alkanolamines on limestone-calcined clay cement and the role of sulfate

Karen Scrivener, François Henri Avet, Xuerun Li, Wilasinee Hanpongpun, Hong Huang

This paper reports the strength-promoting mechanism of alkanolamines on limestone-calcined clay cement (LC3). The hydration kinetics, phase formation and microstructure of LC3 with triethanolamine (TEA) or triisopropanolamine (TIPA) were investigated. TEA ...

Limestone calcined clay cements (LC3): raw material processing, sulfate balance and hydration kinetics

Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

Limestone calcined clay cements (LC3) are blended cements that combine clinker, limestone, calcined clay and gypsum. The availability of the materials required to produce LC3 and the good performance that it achieves, makes LC3 suitable as a sustainable re ...

Hydration development and thermal performance of calcium sulphoaluminate cements containing microencapsulated phase change materials

Diana Londoño Zuluaga

Microencapsulated phase change materials (MPCM) incorporated in buildings walls can reduce indoor temperature fluctuations, conserving energy and enhancing thermal comfort. MPCM were incorporated in calcium sulphoaluminate cement (CSA) at high concentratio ...

The Influence of some calcined clays from Nigeria as clinker substitute in cementitious systems

Karen Scrivener, François Henri Avet

This paper examines the possibility of the use of some clays calcined from Nigeria as partial substitutes for clinker in the production of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3). The clays were calcined in the oven at a temperature of 800 degrees C and for o ...

The effect of sodium hydroxide on Al uptake by calcium silicate hydrates (C S H)

Christian Ludwig, Sonya Barzgar

To reduce the CO2 emissions from cement production, Portland cement (PC) is partially replaced by supplementary cementitious materials (SCM). Reactions of SCM with PC during hydration leads to the formation of CSH with more silicon and aluminum than in PC, ...

The Atomic-Level Structure of Cementitious Calcium Aluminate Silicate Hydrate

Mattia Negroni, Karen Scrivener, David Lyndon Emsley, Paul Bowen, Pierrick Berruyer, Brennan James Walder, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Aslam Kunhi Mohamed, Maya Nicole Harris, Jirawan Siramanont

Despite use of blended cements containing significant amounts of aluminum for over 30 years, the structural nature of aluminum in the main hydration product, calcium aluminate silicate hydrate (C-A-S-H), remains elusive. Using first-principles calculations ...

Assessing the effect of alkanolamine grinding aids in limestone calcined clay cements hydration

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

Grinding aids are commonly used in cement manufacture to reduce electrostatic forces between powder particles and reduce agglomeration. Alkanolamines are known to also influence the hydration of the aluminate phases in cement. This study assessed the effec ...
