ABSTRACT The construction sector constitutes a major source of global carbon dioxide emissions, and cement production contributes substantially via fuel combustion and limestone decomposition. These challenges have encouraged the incorporation of carbon dioxide into construction materials through mineralization.

Effect of silica fume additions on the hydration behaviour of calcium aluminates [PDF]
In the recent refractory castables technology, the calcium aluminate cement is being replaced in increasing proportion by very fine matrix components, such as silica fume and colloidal alumina.

A visible light-active composite, Ag2O-Ag/CAC/SiO2, was produced by loading an aqueous silver salt solution onto the layer of hydrated calcium aluminate cement coating on porous SiO2 sphere. The mild cement hydration condition induced the formation of in

Influence of radiopacifier additives on calcium aluminate cement properties [PDF]
The aim of this study was to determine the best radiopaque additive to be incorporated to calcium aluminate cement (CAC) to promote radiopacity. Measurements of optical density were carried out on white MTA and CAC with and without additives such as ...

Clays for Low‐Carbon Cements: Overview, Progress, and Challenges
This review provides a critical overview of recent developments of activated clays to function as artificial pozzolans. After a thorough description of the clays that yield good pozzolanic performances, selected examples are given on thermal and mechanical activations. Chiefly, general correlations are extracted from reported data despite its scattered

Microbial Deterioration Potential and Mitigation Strategies in Blended Cement Structures: A Review
Microbial‐induced deterioration (MID) is a threat to the durability of cement‐based materials (CBMs) particularly in sewer and wastewater systems. Whereas blended cements incorporating supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) offer environmental benefits such as reduced carbon (IV) oxide (CO2) emissions and enhanced mechanical performance, their ...

Microstructure development in mixes of calcium aluminate cement with silica fume or fly ash
The most widely identified degradation process suffered by calcium aluminate cement (CAC) is the so-called conversion of hexagonal calcium aluminate hydrate to cubic form.
