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

Effects of the secondary minerals of the natural pozzolans on their pozzolanic activity
Abstract Natural pozzolans have been widely used as substitutes for Portland cement, because of their binding properties. Some of them are natural volcanic rocks which contain secondary minerals such as clays and zeolites corresponding to products of the alteration of the rock.

Modifications induced by adding natural zeolitic pozzolans to cement paste
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 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
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 ...

Analysis of thermal process of pozzolan production
The objective of this study was evaluated the effect of heat treatment parameters on the pozzolanic activity of natural kaolin clays. The experimental design included three factors: kaolin type, temperature and time.

Use of gypsum and bagasse ash for stabilization of low plastic and high plastic clay
Clays have a tendency to undergo volumetric changes when they interact with water. These soils are a very common reason for most of the foundation failures due to their degraded properties.
