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 temperature is known to influence the strength and durability of concrete. Temperature has also a great influence on the creep of cementitious materials. Previous investigations have not provided a complete understanding of these effects; in particular ...
This paper investigates the decomposition of three clayey structures (kaolinite, illite and montmorillonite) when thermally treated at 600 degrees C and 800 degrees C and the effect of this treatment on their pozzolanic activity in cementitious materials. ...
Concrete is the building material with the greatest potential for meeting the increasing housing demand in developing countries. Locally available materials should be considered as cement replacement in order to lower the costs and the environmental impact ...
Cement pastes aged from 1 to 60 days were studied using synchrotron microtomography on the MS-X04SA beam line at the Swiss Light Source. This allowed three dimensional images to be obtained with a resolution approaching that of backscattered electron image ...
The primary concern for vegetable fibre reinforced mortar composites (VFRMC) is the durability of the fibres in the alkaline environment of cement. The composites may undergo a reduction in strength and toughness as a result of weakening of the fibres by a ...
The influence of thermal curing on the evolution of the material properties and the UHPFRC behaviour was investigated. Tests results showed a beneficial effect of a high temperature curing on the early age material properties due to the thermo-activation e ...
During the last 20 years, backscattered electron imaging of polished surfaces has become well established as a method for the study of cement and concrete microstructures. The technique has many advantages, including the visualisation of representative cro ...
The increase of the elongational viscosity of recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) is investigated with the aim of producing closed-cell foams by means of a cost-effective reactive extrusion technique. A recycled PET grade containing controlled cont ...
It is the purpose of this report to summarize the state of knowledge regarding the hydration of C//3A and C//4AF in the presence of calcium sulfate at ordinary temperatures. These interstitial phases in combination with calcium sulfate may comprise up to 2 ...
