Enhancing the Reactivity of Dicalcium Silicate Using Aluminum and Sulfur Ions Co‐Doping

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Belite‐rich cements are a lower‐energy and lower‐CO2 alternative to Portland cements, but the low hydraulic activity of belite remains a major limitation. This study explores the impact of aluminum and sulfur co‐doping on the structure and hydration of synthetic dicalcium silicate (C2S).

Ettringite dependace in thaumasite formation

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
Abstract Thaumasite has been synthetized with and without ettringite in the reaction medium. The compositions of solids have been analyzed over time by means of X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM-EDX) in order to check the relation between ettringite and thaumasite. The results indicate that in the synthesis in

Hybrid NDT‐Machine Learning Framework With SHAP‐Based Interpretation for Predicting Compressive Strength of Steel Slag Concrete

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study proposes a hybrid non‐destructive testing (NDT) and machine learning framework to predict the compressive strength of steel slag concrete. The integration of UPV, Rebound Hammer, and mixture parameters with interpretable ANN modeling enables accurate, sustainable, and explainable strength assessment for in situ concrete evaluation.
