AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
This paper investigates the applicability of nucleation and growth mechanisms to the hydration of alite. Various possible mechanisms of nucleation and growth were simulated using the recently-developed microstructural modelling platform mu ic. Comparison w ...
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 ...
An important mode of hydration of Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) is via the formation of a shell of hydration products around cement grains. It has been shown so far that shells form not only in OPC but also around C3A grains in a mixture of alite, C3A and ...
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 ...
Self-levelling flooring compounds (SLC) are applied in thin layers (less than 1cm) to level floors before further finishing cover such as parquet or plastic cover. They are composed of a ternary binder system based on Portland cement (PC), calcium aluminat ...
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 ...
A new modelling framework, called μic, has been developed to enable simulations of complex particulate growths, in particular the microstructural evolution of hydrating cement paste. μic has been developed using the vector approach, which preserves the mul ...
This paper presents an in situ study of the hydration of cement pastes in the SEM, made possible by the development of a radical new technology for the investigation of wet samples: the QX capsule from QuantomiX, based on the WETSEM technology, consists of ...

The influence of both early and late heat treatments on the microstructure and on the hydration products of Portland cement mortars has been investigated. The mortars were given either a 4-h or 28-day precure at 20 °C before heating at 90 °C for 12 h and w ...
