Paper of RILEM TC 282-CCL: mineralogical characterization methods for clay resources intended for use as supplementary cementitious material

Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva, Ruben Anton Snellings, Alastair Thomas Matthew Marsh, Adrian Alujas Diaz

To respond to the rapid introduction and development of calcined clays as supplementary cementitious material (SCM), the toolbox of characterization methods for cementitious materials requires extension to raw clay characterization. Borrowing concepts and ...

The effect of pore microstructure on strength and chloride ingress in blended cement based on low kaolin clay

Karen Scrivener, Diana Londoño Zuluaga

The objective of this study is to analyse the mechanical and durability properties of a high-performance mortars based on low grade kaolin clay and the effect of electrical conductivity and pore microstructure on the chloride penetration resistance. A tota ...

Properties and occurrence of clay resources for use as supplementary cementitious materials: a paper of RILEM TC 282-CCL

Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva, Ruben Anton Snellings, Alastair Thomas Matthew Marsh, Adrian Alujas Diaz

The use of clays as resource of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) for a new generation of low-carbon cements and concretes is currently the subject of intense research efforts. To this purpose, a large number of clay resources have been explored, ...

Oxidation of pyrite (FeS2) and troilite (FeS) impurities in kaolinitic clays after calcination

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

Valorisation of locally available clays for producing blended cements is crucial for a widespread adoption of sustainable binders incorporating these materials. In some places, clays can be intermixed with small amounts of iron sulfides, which could eventu ...

Clay calcination technology: state-of-the-art review by the RILEM TC 282-CCL

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva, François Henri Avet, Alastair Thomas Matthew Marsh, Mohsen Ben Haha, Shashank Bishnoi, Adrian Alujas Diaz, Anuj Parashar

The use of calcined clays as supplementary cementitious materials provides the opportunity to significantly reduce the cement industry's carbon burden; however, use at a global scale requires a deep understanding of the extraction and processing of the cla ...

Increasing the kaolinite content of raw clays using particle classification techniques for use as supplementary cementitious materials

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

The adoption of blended cements to reduce the carbon footprint has increased significantly over the last decades. Clays containing kaolinite are a promising choice due to their widespread availability. Kaolinite content is the major factor controlling the ...

Water retention behaviour of compacted and reconstituted scaly clays

Alessio Ferrari

The paper presents the results of an experimental research devoted to investigate the response to suction variations of a scaly clay in compacted and reconstituted conditions. Different experimental techniques (axis translation, vapour equilibrium, dew poi ...

Chloride Transport Behavior of LC3 Binders

Karen Scrivener, François Henri Avet, Hamed Maraghechi

Corrosion of metal reinforcement is the most important durability concern of concrete infrastructures. In this research, chloride transport in mortars prepared using ternary blends of OPC-calcined clay-limestone (LC3) as the cementitious materials is asses ...

Investigation of the Intrinsic Permeability of MX-80 Bentonite through a 4-Scale Analysis of Its Fabric

Lyesse Laloui, Etienne André Cassini

MX-80 granular bentonite is expected to be used as a buffer material for high level nuclear waste storage in Switzerland. This material is composed of 85% of smectite clay and exhibits a particular structure with four different scales. MX-80 macroscopic pr ...

The sediment-contact test using the ostracod Heterocypris incongruens: Effect of fine sediments and determination of toxicity thresholds

Rebecca Bebon

The toxicity test using freshwater ostracods of the species Heterocypris incongruens is a sub-chronic static test that exposes individuals to whole sediments over a period of 6 d, the endpoints being mortality and growth. We tested the hypothesis that endp ...
