Accelerated and natural carbonation of concrete with high volumes of fly ash : chemical, mineralogical and microstructural effects [PDF]

, 2019
Today, a rather poor carbonation resistance is being reported for high-volume fly ash (HVFA) binder systems. This conclusion is usually drawn from accelerated carbonation experiments conducted at CO2 levels that highly exceed the natural atmospheric CO2 ...

Stone‐Cutting Dust as a Sustainable Supplementary Cementitious Material: A Comprehensive Review of Its Physicochemical and Mechanical Effects

Journal of Chemistry, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) remains the most common binder used in construction and accounts for nearly 7%‐8% of the world’s CO2 emissions due to calcination of limestone and high energy use during clinker production. Reducing OPC content using SCMs is one of the major strategies to achieve sustainable construction.

The workability, mechanical, and electrical properties of steel fiber‐reinforced SCC incorporating ultra‐fine copper slag as fine aggregate

Structural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 6, Page 7571-7590, December 2025.
Abstract Ultra‐fine copper slag (CS), a byproduct of the copper industry, is al waste material that is produced in large volumes annually, and its disposal and management are a major environmental concern. Therefore, the utilization of CS in various sectors, especially in the production of construction and building materials, offers enormous potential ...

Transformation of a Silicate Material for Carbon Negative Magnesia‐Based Cement via Electrochemistry

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 42, November 13, 2025.
The transformation of a magnesium trisilicate material via water electrolysis into precursor phases necessary for magnesium‐based M‐S‐H cement is explored. The dissolution of the material mediated electrochemically is monitored, and the analysis of the resulting phases indicate their suitability as effective precursors for M‐S‐H cement.
