The sulfate attack is known to influence the durability of concrete. In general, significant damage due to sulfate interaction results in the structural breakdown of the concrete structure. However, the precipitation of thaumasite due to sulfate concentrat ...
The usage of cemented tailings backfill (cemented paste backfill) in the underground by mining industry is becoming increasingly important. However, until now, the mix proportioning of CTB has been mainly based on the realization of extensive laboratory te ...
Impure tricalcium silicate (Alite, C3S) is the most important and abundant phase of Portland cement. It reacts quickly with water to give calcium hydroxide (CH) and calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) which is the most important phase for strength development ...
The applications of systems based on Portland Cement (PC), Calcium Aluminate Cement (CAC) and Calcium Sulphate (C$) are usually limited to indoor uses in the field of Building Chemistry because no durability data exist on the outdoor uses. These ternary bi ...
Rietveld analysis is a powerful technique for obtaining quantitative data on the relative amounts of phases in a mixture of phases, such as cement. However, a good knowledge of crystallography and the development of a refinement strategy with synthetic pha ...
Natural cement, called "Roman" cement, was invented at the end of the 19th century and played an important role in the development of civil engineering works until the 1860s. More surprisingly, it was also used to restore historic buildings, such as gothic ...
The influence of the presence of limestone on the hydration of Portland cement was investigated. Blending of Portland cement with limestone was found to influence the hydrate assemblage of the hydrated cement. Thermodynamic calculations as well as experime ...
The formation of thaumasite was investigated with the progressive equilibrium approach (PEA). This approach experimentally simulates the conditions of various levels of sulfate addition in hardened cement pastes. The influence of limestone, time, C(3)A con ...
Sandcastle worms Phragmatopoma californica build mound-like reefs by sticking together large numbers of sand grains with cement secreted from the building organ. The cement consists of protein plus substantial amounts of calcium and magnesium, which are no ...
