Calcined schist as promising ordinary Portland cement substitution: C3

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ceramic Engineering & Science
An effective method to make cement and concrete more sustainable is to blend them with the proper supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). This study evaluates a pair of schist‐type materials with slightly different phase compositions, as a partial ...

Synergistic Effect of Ladle Furnace Slag and Biomass Bottom Ash in Alkali‐Activated Binders

open access: yesJournal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study investigates the synergistic co‐activation of ladle furnace slag (LFS) and biomass bottom ash (BBA) in alkali‐activated binders. Results indicate that 75 wt% BBA maximizes mechanical strength, reaching 11.1 MPa in compression after 90 days. Amorphous silica from BBA acts as a chemical buffer, mitigating slag expansion while forming a stable ...

Carbon Dioxide Uptake and Storage in Construction Materials: Mechanisms, Theoretical Capacity, and Global Potential

open access: yescScience, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The construction sector constitutes a major source of global carbon dioxide emissions, and cement production contributes substantially via fuel combustion and limestone decomposition. These challenges have encouraged the incorporation of carbon dioxide into construction materials through mineralization.

Fluid‐Driven Cohesive Strengthening: Critical Role of Reaction Kinetics as the Determinant for Frictional Stability

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Following an earthquake, faults lock and regain strength via a combination of healing mechanisms that include pressure solution, contact growth, and cementation. Fault healing dictates strength recovery during the seismic cycle and is therefore a key factor controlling earthquake recurrence intervals, stress drop, and other source properties ...

Evaluation and Testing of Brick Dust as a Pozzolanic Additive to Lime Mortars for Architectural Conservation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The purpose of this research is to identify an optimal methodology for determining whether a given brick dust will produce a pozzolanic reaction when combined with lime. This property will be referred to as pozzolanicity.
