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, ...

Maximizing the use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) in blended cements

Yosra Briki

Partial replacement of clinker with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) is an effective approach to reduce CO2 emissions related to cement production. However, there is a maximum substitution level with SCMs beyond which strength decreases. The und ...

The Atomic-Level Structure of Cementitious Calcium Aluminate Silicate Hydrate

David Lyndon Emsley, Karen Scrivener, Paul Bowen, Pierrick Berruyer, Brennan James Walder, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Aslam Kunhi Mohamed, Jirawan Siramanont, Maya Nicole Harris, Mattia Negroni

Despite use of blended cements containing significant amounts of aluminum for over 30 years, the structural nature of aluminum in the main hydration product, calcium aluminate silicate hydrate (C-A-S-H), remains elusive. Using first-principles calculations ...

Hydration reactions and stages of clinker composed mainly of stoichiometric ye'elimite

Karen Scrivener, Emmanuelle Boehm Courjault, Mohsen Ben Haha, Frank Bullerjahn

Ye'climitc (Ca4Al6O12SO4 or C(4)A(3)(S) over bar) is the main hydraulic mineral present in calcium sulfoaluminate cement (CSA). The hydration of ye'elimite is responsible for the early age cement properties. We identify 5 stages in the hydration of neat st ...

Kinetics of mixing-water repartition in UHPFRC paste and its effect on hydration and microstructural development

Eugen Brühwiler, Karen Scrivener, Emmanuel Denarié, Arnaud Charles Albert Muller, Mohammadhadi Kazemi Kamyab

The hydration of an ultra-high performance fibre reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) paste with a water to cement ratio of 0.18 was followed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) alongside more classical techniques for hydration kinetics, and microstructu ...

2019

Calcium sulphoaluminate cements (CSA) with the main phase yeâelimite are a promising class of non-Portland cements which are gaining increasing interest from the cement industry. However, the hydration kinetics of CSA cements varies strongly, even for ce ...

Effect of Ions and Admixtures on the Growth of Synthetic Calcium Silicate Hydrate (C-S-H)

Jirawan Siramanont

This thesis investigates the effect of different parameters such as Fe (III), D-gluconate and heterogeneous particles on the nucleation and growth of synthetic C-S-H by using the dropwise precipitation method. Firstly, the effect of Fe (III) on the synthet ...
