Factors influencing the sulfate balance in pure phase C3S/C(3)A systems

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

Understanding the sulfate balance mechanism of cement is needed for an effective use of sustainable blended cements. Pure phase systems allow to study the interaction between sulfate and each of the phases involved in early age hydration separately. This p ...

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 ...

Basic creep and autogenous shrinkage of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3)

Julien Ston

The use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) to lower the clinker factor of cements is now commonplace, for it benefits performance, economics and ecology. This thesis focuses on ternary blends of limestone and calcined kaolinitic clays, two very ...

The influence of the filler effect on the sulfate requirement of blended cements

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

In some blended cements, the optimum amount of sulfate addition differs from that observed in OPC. This study aims to understand the mechanism behind the impact of two SCMs, namely metakaolin and limestone, on the sulfate balance of blended cements. No sig ...

Hydration Study of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3) Using Various Grades of Calcined Kaolinitic Clays

Karen Scrivener, François Henri Avet

In this study, the influence of the calcined kaolinite content of calcined clay on the hydration of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3-50) is investigated. It is shown that with the increase of the calcined kaolinite content of the calcined clay, the clin ...

Vertical changes of the Co and Mn speciation along a lateritic regolith developed on peridotites (New Caledonia)

Gabrielle Dublet, Vincent Noel

Because they can host significant amounts of Co, the Mn-oxides are commonly considered as the major Co-bearing mineral species in lateritic environments. However, little is known about the process leading to the formation and/or the weathering of these Co- ...

Investigation of the grade of calcined clays used as clinker substitute in Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3)

François Henri Avet

The combination of calcined kaolinitic clays and limestone in Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3) is a promising approach to reduce the cost and the CO2 emissions of cement production by reducing the clinker content of cement. This thesis investigates the ...

Approximation numérique des écoulements turbulents dans des cuves d'électrolyse de l'aluminium

Jonathan Rochat

Aluminium is a metal extracted from bauxite ore using electrolysis process in cells of big size. A huge electric current goes in the cell through an electrolytic bath and aluminium liquid. These currents generate strong magnetic forces that allow the bath ...

Influence of calcium to silica ratio on aluminium uptake in calcium silicate hydrate

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Émilie Michèle L'Hôpital

Aluminium uptake in calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) was studied at different Ca/Si ratios from 0.6 to 1.6 at 20 degrees C. Aluminium incorporation in C-S-H depends on the total amount of aluminium present in the sample. At low Al/Si ratio (

Aluminium and alkali uptake in calcium silicate hydrates (C-S-H)

Émilie Michèle L'Hôpital

Calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) is the main hydrate phase in Portland cements. Its composition varies depending on the Ca/Si ratio and on the presence of other ions such as aluminium (called CA- S-H) or alkalis. This thesis aimed to study the compositi ...
