Effects of pozzolanic and non-pozzolanic nanomaterials on cement-based materials

Construction and Building Materials, 2019
Abstract Although it has been verified that nanomaterials can improve the properties of cement-based materials, the research on the characteristics and mechanism of different types of nanomaterials is still inadequate. Two typical types of nanomaterials, nano-SiO2 (pozzolanic material) and nano-TiO2 (non-pozzolanic material), are utilized in this ...

Pozzolanic activity of natural pozzolan–lime pastes and physicomechanical characteristics

Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, 2018
In order to evaluate the pozzolanic activity of a natural pozzolan (NP) of rhyolitic composition, several pastes were prepared by mixing the pozzolan with hydrated lime, in different ratios. The pastes were stored in standard conditions (RH = 99 ± 1%, T = 25 ± 1 °C) and evaluated using thermal analysis (TG-DTA), X-ray diffraction, compressive strength ...

Trinidad porcellanite as a pozzolan

Matériaux et Constructions, 1975
“Fuel consumer” countries could save fuel and also make better use of their own resources by using pozzolans to replace part of their Portland cement requirements. A recent BRE study of porcellanite from Trinidad provides an example of the type of work needed to assess such materials.

Pozzolan

1969
Abstract Pozzolans are finely divided siliceous or siliceous and aluminous materials that are by themselves of little or no cementitious value but that react with calcium hydroxide in the presence of water at ordinary temperatures to form cementitious compounds.

Pozzolanic activation of metakaolin

Advances in Cement Research, 1992
Metakaolin may be calcined without grinding and suitably activated by Ca(OH)2, Na2SO4, CaSO4 (beta anhydrite) and/or NaOH. The best strengths, 50 MPa from mortar cubes at 18 months, were obtained using Ca(OH)2 and CaSO4 activators. The handling and set properties are similar to those of Portland cement; aluminous C-S-H gel is the best binder.

Influence of the fineness of pozzolan on the strength of lime natural-pozzolan cement pastes

Cement and Concrete Research, 1994
Abstract The fineness of a cement is an important factor affecting the rate of strength development. This paper examines the importance of the fineness of natural pozzolans to the strength development of lime-pozzolan cements (LPCs). A natural pozzolan from Bolivia, which is typical of natural pozzolans found in South and Central America, was ground ...

Greening of Mortars with Pozzolans

Journal of ASTM International, 2006
Abstract Growing interest in sustainable building has created a strong interest in fly ash and other coal combustion products (CCPs). Emergence of agencies like the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and the Coal Combustion Products Partnership (C2P2) of the USEPA has accelerated this trend. Their primary goal is sustainable development,

The measurement of pozzolanic activity

Cement and Concrete Research, 1977
Abstract Some comments are made on the applicability of the hydrofluoric acid method for determining pozzolanic activity. It is pointed out that in addition to silica some other constituents of pozzolanic materials such as pfa are also soluble in HF and the conductance of the solution may, therefore, not be directly relatable to the active silica ...

Pozzolanas and Pozzolanic Materials

2019
Developments in concrete construction mean that there are now a broader range of cementitious materials, than have traditionally been available, providing options for engineers to meet specific technical requirements. Pozzolanas and pozzolanic materials from natural deposits or industrial processes represent a group within this category.
