Effect of natural pozzolan on concrete durability
Pressacademia, 2017 Sulfate attack and its effects are important from both scientific and industrial viewpoints. It is perceived that cements containing pozzolan have better performance in sulfate solutions, since the pozzolanic reactions reduce the quantity of calcium hydroxide and increase calcium silicate hydrate.
