A new formulation for lightweight oil well cement slurry using a natural pozzolan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
 Fluid loss during cementing operation in depleted reservoirs or in deep wells of reservoirs with low breakdown pressure is a major concern for maintaining well integrity. To overcome this problem, the weight of cement slurry is usually reduced. Although

Evaluation of Portland pozzolan blended cements containing diatomaceous earth

open access: yesCerâmica
Clinker replacement by supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) is one strategy to reduce CO2 emissions of cement industry. Diatomaceous earth, a natural pozzolan, has been used as SCM.

Limestone and Natural Pozzolan Blended Cements: Evaluating Sulfate Resistance for Sustainable Construction

open access: yes
This study aims to compare the behavior of ordinary Portland cement, sulfate resistant cement, natural pozzolan blended cement and limestone blended cement, produced in the same strength class as Portland clinker, under the influence of sulfate. For this

Effect of particle size on early heat evolution of interground natural pozzolan blended cements

open access: yes, 2019
Natural pozzolans are increasingly being used in blended cements due to their compositional uniformity and local abundance in some countries. They influence hydration, both at early and late ages.
