Multiscale understanding of tricalcium silicate hydration reactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Tricalcium silicate, the main constituent of Portland cement, hydrates to produce crystalline calcium hydroxide and calcium-silicate-hydrates (C-S-H) nanocrystalline gel. This hydration reaction is poorly understood at the nanoscale.

Thermally induced behavior of the K-exchanged erionite. A further step in understanding the structural modifications of the erionite group upon heating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Fibrous erionite is a naturally occurring zeolite considered to be highly carcinogenic upon inhalation, even more than crocidolite. Since no iron is typically present in erionite, its toxicity has been attributed to ion-exchanged Fe participating in ...

Thermal Expansion of Fused Quartz Powder Compacts

open access: yesJournal of the Ceramic Society of Japan, 1997
The fused quartz is one of the most typical materials of low thermal expansion. However, it was found that compacts prepared by isostatic compression of ground powder of fused quartz showed an anomalously high thermal expansion of 7×10-6/°C, i.e., about 10 times of that of the normal fused quartz. The density of the glass powder increased with grinding
