Effect of a novel starch-based temperature rise inhibitor on cement hydration and microstructure development

Karen Scrivener, Alexandre Reda Constantin William Caleb Ouzia, Cheng Yu

This study investigates the mechanism by which a novel starch-based admixture named Temperature Rise Inhibitor (TRI) modifying cement hydration and limiting heat evolution. This admixture is designed to avoid thermal cracking of concrete. Depending on the ...

Modeling the kinetics of the main peak and later age of alite hydration

Alexandre Reda Constantin William Caleb Ouzia

The aim of this thesis is to understand the mechanisms underlying the main hydration peak and later ages of alite hydration; it proposes new mechanistic models for these two stages. Alite is the main constituent of Portland Cement (PC), and is responsible ...

The needle model: A new model for the main hydration peak of alite

Karen Scrivener, Alexandre Reda Constantin William Caleb Ouzia

This article presents a new model for the main hydration peaks of tricalcium silicate and alite on the assumption that C-S-H nucleates and grows as needles. The model relies only on directly observable quantities and reproduces the transition from the acce ...
