Autogenous Shrinkage and Creep of Limestone and Calcined Clay Based Binders

Karen Scrivener, Julien Ston, Adrien Jean Régis Maurice Hilaire

This study explored the delayed strains in limestone and calcined clay ternary blends. Autogenous shrinkage measurements are carried out over 2 months and compressive basic creep tests during 28 days after one month of curing. All tests are done using mixe ...

SPRINGER2018

This study focused on understanding the influence of different amounts of calcite impurities (0 to 10% by mass) on the optimal parameters for clay dehydroxylation and the reactivity of the final calcined clay. A surface response experimental design was use ...

Reactivity and Performance of Limestone Calcined-Clay Cement (LC3) Cured at Low Temperature

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

Limestone calcined-clay cements (LC3) take advantage of the synergetic effects of calcium carbonate reaction with the additional aluminium provided by the calcined clay. As temperature decreases, calcium carbonate solubility increase, therefore, the early- ...

SPRINGER2018

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 ...

Pozzolanic reactivity of low grade kaolinitic clays: Influence of calcination temperature and impact of calcination products on OPC hydration

Karen Scrivener, Adrian Alujas Diaz, Rodrigo Fernandez Lopez

The influence of thermal activation temperature in the pozzolanic reactivity of low grade kaolinitic clay and the impact of calcination products in OPC hydration are assessed in this paper. The raw material, with approximately 40% kaolinite and 40% of 2:1 ...

Cement substitution by a combination of metakaolin and limestone

Karen Scrivener, Mathieu Antoni, John Espen Rossen

This study investigates the coupled substitution of metakaolin and limestone in Portland cement (PC). The mechanical properties were studied in mortars and the microstructural development in pastes by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry analysis, mercury i ...

Effect of temperature on collapse potential of kaolin clay

Lyesse Laloui, Ali Haghighi

The understanding of the fundamental behaviour of clays subjected to high temperatures is essential when working with clay barriers in nuclear waste storage, drilling of deep offshore wells or using clay liners on landfills. The effect of temperature on th ...
