The role of relative humidity and cement type on carbonation resistance of concrete
Carbonation of concrete is one of the key factors causing deterioration for reinforced concrete structures. Carbonation depth is typically used to estimate the concrete service life.

Carbonation Resistance Classes of Concretes [PDF]
Concrete carbonation is a phenomenon that occurs by the penetration into the cement stone of CO2 present in the atmosphere. The phenomenon occurs in the presence of water in which CO2 dissolves, forming carbonate ions, which in turn react with calcium ...

Influence of alkali content and silica modulus on the carbonation kinetics of alkali-activated slag concrete [PDF]
Carbonation is inevitable process during the service life of concrete structures, where CO2 causes decalcification of the calcium-bearing phases. These changes affect the durability of concrete and accelerate the corrosion of reinforcement.

Carbonation resistance of blended mortars and industrial by-products: A brief review
Carbonation is one of the significant durability properties of cement mortar. Conventional mortar is generally made up of cement and sand, but blended mortar is formed by partial substitution of cement with certain pozzolanic materials.

Overcoming public resistance to carbon taxes [PDF]
Carbon taxes represent a cost‐effective way to steer the economy toward a greener future. In the real world, their application has however been limited. In this paper, we address one of the main obstacles to carbon taxes: public opposition. We identify drivers of and barriers to public support, and, under the form of stylized facts, provide general ...
