Hydration kinetics of Portland cement shifting from silicate to aluminate dominance based on multi-mineral reactions and interactions

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2023
A theoretical model for cement hydration was proposed to study multi-mineral reactive transport processes under various mineral compositions and determine the effect of multi-mineral reactions and interactions on cement hydration kinetics shifting from ...

Characteristics and propierties of oil-well cements additioned with blast furnace slag

open access: yesMateriales de Construccion, 2011
The present paper addresses the alkali activation of Portland cements containing blast furnace slag (20 and 30% of the cement by weight) with a view to the possible use of these materials in oil well construction.

Creep in reactive colloidal gels: a nanomechanical study of cement hydrates [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
From soft polymeric gels to hardened cement paste, amorphous solids under constant load exhibit a pronounced time-dependent deformation called creep. The microscopic mechanism of such a phenomenon is poorly understood in amorphous materials and constitutes an even greater challenge in densely packed and chemically reactive granular systems.

Speeding up reactive transport simulations in cement systems by surrogate geochemical modeling: deep neural networks and k-nearest neighbors [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
We accelerate reactive transport (RT) simulation by replacing the geochemical solver in the RT code by a surrogate model or emulator, considering either a trained deep neural network (DNN) or a k-nearest neighbor (kNN) regressor. We focus on 2D leaching of hardened cement paste under diffusive or advective-dispersive transport conditions, a solid ...

Feasibility of Design One-Part Sodium Silicate Activated Metamontmorillonite-Limestone Cements [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Materials Science and Engineering, 2023
In this study, the potential of calcined montmorillonite as a primary precursor for one-part alkali-activated cement incorporated with high percentage of limestone, is evaluated.

Controlled growth and ordering of poorly-crystalline calcium-silicate-hydrate nanosheets

open access: yesCommunications Materials, 2021
Calcium-silicate-hydrate is the main component of cement, and controlling its structure is vital to its properties. Here, graphene oxide is used to constrain the growth and optimize the assembly of calcium-silicate-hydrate, substantially improving its ...

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Calcium-Silicate-Hydrate for Nano-Engineered Cement Composites—A Review

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
With the continuous research efforts, sophisticated predictive molecular dynamics (MD) models for C-S-H have been developed, and the application of MD simulation has been expanded from fundamental understanding of C-S-H to nano-engineered cement ...

Learning a reactive potential for silica-water through uncertainty attribution [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
The reactivity of silicates in an aqueous solution is relevant to various chemistries ranging from silicate minerals in geology, to the C-S-H phase in cement, nanoporous zeolite catalysts, or highly porous precipitated silica. While simulations of chemical reactions can provide insight at the molecular level, balancing accuracy and scale in reactive ...
