Clays for Low-Carbon Cements: Overview, Progress, and Challenges. [PDF]
Glob ChallThis review provides a critical overview of recent developments of activated clays to function as artificial pozzolans. After a thorough description of the clays that yield good pozzolanic performances, selected examples are given on thermal and mechanical activations. Chiefly, general correlations are extracted from reported data despite its scattered
