Effect of pozzolans with different physical and chemical characteristics on concrete properties

open access: yesMateriales de Construccion, 2016
The durability of concrete structures is an important issue nowadays. Specifically in the case of reinforced concrete bridges or other infrastructures one of the main form of environmental attack is the penetration of chloride ions, which leads to ...

Cements based on kaolinite waste [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The cement industry involves high-energy consumption that generates high CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. Environmental concerns can be addressed by replacing parts of Portland cement clinkers with pozzolanic materials in mortars and concrete.

Modifications induced by adding natural zeolitic pozzolans to cement paste

open access: yesMateriales de Construccion, 2005
Volcanic pozzolans owe their pozzolanic activity chiefly to the presence of vitreous or zeolitic material rich in SiO2, and Al20y compounds that react with the portlandite produced during cement hydration to generate amorphous gels with cementitious ...

The Potential to Replace Cement with Nano-Calcium Carbonate and Natural Pozzolans in Cemented Mine Backfill

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
The effectiveness of mine backfilling depends on the properties of its constituents. The high cost of cement, which is commonly used as a binder in mine backfill, has led researchers to seek alternatives to partially replace it with other binders.

Heats of hydration and pozzolan content of portland-pozzolan cements

open access: yesJournal of Research of the National Bureau of Standards, 1952
Methods are described for the measurement of the approximate heat of solution in acid of portland-cement^-pozzolan mixtures. Examples are given of the estimation of the heat of hydration of portland-pozz olan cements. Determinations of the amount of material undissolved in the calorimeter, as well as the heats of solution, were applied to the problem ...
