Thermomechanical Properties of a Concrete Composed of Cherry Tree Resin and Expanded Clay (Exclay) Aggregate

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Expanded clay (exclay) aggregate and cherry tree resin are used in this study to produce a lightweight construction material. Based on the grain diameter, exclays are classified as d = 2–4 mm and d = 4–6 mm.

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON LIGHTWEIGHT CONCRETE USING LIGHTWEIGHT EXPANDED CLAY AGGREGATE (LECA) AND EXPANDED PERLITE AGGREGATE (EPA)

open access: yes, 2020
AbstractIn pursuit of reducing the dead-weight of precast concrete structures, one approach is by adopting lightweight concrete. EN 13369:2013 specifies a minimum cube compressive strength of at least 18 MPa for the lightweight concrete to be eligible for use in reinforced precast concrete products.

Effect of temperature curing on lightweight expanded clay aggregate concrete

open access: yesMaterials Today: Proceedings, 2021
Abstract Lightweight Aggregate Concrete is usually a mix of Lightweight Aggregates and admixtures. This paper is focused on use of Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate (LECA) for the development of structural Lightweight Concrete. The present investigation was carried out by replacing LECA with 30% of Normal Weight Aggregate (NWA) with different water

Caracterização microestrutural da argila expandida para aplicação como agregado em concreto estrutural leve Microstructural evaluation of expanded clay to be used as lightweight aggregate in structural concrete

open access: yesCerâmica, 2006
A utilização da argila expandida como agregado graúdo é economicamente viável na fabricação de concretos devido à redução da massa especifica que estes agregados proporcionam, minimizando os carregamentos atuantes nas estruturas.

Crack healing in cementitious materials including test methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
If concrete is crack free, deleterious substances can be avoided entering the body of the material, that may corrode the rebar or encourage freeze/thaw damage. This paper examines a self healing system of cementitious materials.

The effect of concrete composition and aggregates properties on performance of concrete

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2009
The properties of the hardened concrete depend on the selected raw materials: size and amount of the particles of coarse aggregate, as well as on the ratio of other components.

Autogenous shrinkage, speciality of high performance concretes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Autogenous shrinkage is a consequence of self dessication in pores of hardened cement paste and is, at high performance concrete significantly greater than that of the ordinary concretes, mainly due to low water to cement ratio.

Adjustment of Coatings Morphology and Particle Distribution of Layered Silicates by Freeze‐Drying for Improved Gas Barriers

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Freeze‐drying of layered silicate is the key to get coatings with superior gas barrier. Freeze‐drying of layered silicates modified with dodecylamine (DDA) is a highly effective technique for the preparation of barrier pigments that significantly mitigate the permeation of oxygen, water vapor, and hydrogen through polymer films containing these ...

Reviews on the Properties of Aggregates made with or without Geopolymerisation Method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Aggregates are popular for use in concrete and lightweight concrete applications. Recent research shows that the by-product materials such as fly ash can be used as raw material in producing aggregates and lightweight aggregates.
