Atomic-Level and Surface Structure of Calcium Silicate Hydrate Nanofoils

Karen Scrivener, Paul Bowen, Aslam Kunhi Mohamed, Ziga Casar

Deciphering the calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) surface is crucial for unraveling the mechanisms of cement hydration and property development. Experimental observations of C-S-H in cement systems suggest a surface termination which is fundamentally differ ...

Computational Studies for the Design of Metalloenzyme Mimics

Guido Frisari

At present, there is no general standard automated method for engineering metalloenzymes, industrially-relevant systems able to catalyze environmentally friendly reactions. One of the most studied natural metalloenzymes is the second isoform of human carbo ...

Insights on the role of alumina content and the filler effect on the sulfate requirement of PC and blended cements

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

Understanding the mechanism controlling the sulfate requirement of blended cements is crucial for a successful deployment of these technologies towards a more sustainable industry. Particularly, clarification regarding the role of alumina content on the su ...

Effect of an Al2O3-based binder on the structure of extruded Fe-ZSM-5

Davide Ferri, Pierdomenico Biasi, Filippo Buttignol

The effect of an alumina-based binder on the structure of a commercial Fe-ZSM-5 catalyst has been investigated. Several ex-situ characterization techniques were used to show that the binder in the catalyst formulation allows obtaining a material that posse ...

The effect of paste composition, aggregate mineralogy and temperature on the pore solution composition and the extent of ASR expansion

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Mahsa Bagheri

The reaction kinetics of the alkali silica reaction depends on the composition of the pore solution. The evolution of the pore solution composition in different cement pastes and concretes was studied. Pastes containing silica fume or metakaolin had the lo ...

Weakening effect of various pore fluids on the tensile strength of granite

Guanyi Lu

Laboratory three-point bending experiments are carried out to evaluate the effect of various fluids on the tensile strength of granite. The granite specimens were tested under both dry and saturated conditions. The fluids used to saturate the granite inclu ...

Al uptake in calcium silicate hydrate and the effect of alkali hydroxide

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Yan Yan

The effect of Al and of pH on the structure of calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H), the most important hydration product in Portland and blended cement, was studied at Ca/Si similar to 1.0. The presence of Al led to higher amounts of secondary phases, larger ...

Iron phosphate mediated magnetite synthesis: a bioinspired approach

Giulia Mirabello

The biomineralization of intracellular magnetite in magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) is an area of active investigation. Previous work has provided evidence that magnetite biomineralization begins with the formation of an amorphous phosphate-rich ferric hydrox ...

Kinetic processes in the high-temperature pressure-infiltration of Al into Al2O3

Andreas Mortensen, Ludger Weber, Marta Fornabaio, Gionata Schneider

We explore the influence (i) of the interaction between aluminium and alumina, and (ii) of sodium impurities present in Bayer alumina, on the pressure infiltration of alumina particle preforms with molten aluminium. At 1000°C or above, although the alumini ...

The effect of sodium hydroxide on Al uptake by calcium silicate hydrates (C S H)

Christian Ludwig, Barbara Lothenbach, Sonya Barzgar, Mohamed Tarik, Alessio Di Giacomo

To reduce the CO2 emissions from cement production, Portland cement (PC) is partially replaced by supplementary cementitious materials (SCM). Reactions of SCM with PC during hydration leads to the formation of CSH with more silicon and aluminum than in PC, ...
